Following the First Partition of Poland, in 1772 it was annexed by Prussia. In 1787 the city suffered a fire. After the last Polish owner of the town Template:Interlanguage link was killed by the Prussians in 1807, the town was confiscated by Prussian officials and passed from Polish to German hands.<ref name=kr/> In 1846 a Protestant church was built by the famous German architect Carl Friedrich Schinkel.
