History
Czarnylas was a royal village of the Polish Crown, administratively located in the Tczew County in the Pomeranian Voivodeship. It was annexed by Prussia in the First Partition of Poland in 1772, and restored to Poland, after Poland regained independence in 1918.
During the German occupation of Poland (World War II), teachers from Czarnylas were among Polish teachers murdered by the Germans on October 20, 1939, in the Szpęgawski Forest as part of the Intelligenzaktion. Polish inhabitants of Czarnylas were also murdered in large massacres carried out in late 1939 in the Szpęgawski and Zajączek forests.
