There were initially three villages of Biała, Gulcz, and Rozdróżka. The new name of these three combined villages was Trzciana Laka, which was subsequently changed to Trzcianka in the 17th century.
Soviet troops marching towards Berlin from the east entered Schönlanke on 27 January 1945. In that course, about 500 people committed suicide.Famous people
