Old wooden Church of Mary Magdalene

In 1827, Mikaszówka had a population of 95, and in the late 19th century it had a population of 128. [2]

During the German occupation of Poland ( World War II), in April 1940, the Germans arrested Polish priests Stanisław Piotr Konstantynowicz and Stanisław Maciątek [ pl] in the village, and then imprisoned them in Suwałki and eventually deported them to concentration camps. [3] [4] Maciątek died of exhaustion in the Sachsenhausen concentration camp in June 1940, [4] while Konstantynowicz was murdered in the Hartheim Euthanasia Centre in August 1942 (see Nazi crimes against the Polish nation).
