==History==

Wilkowyja was a knightly village owned by the [[Junosza coat of arms|Junosza family]]. The first mention of the village dates back to 1580, when the village paid [[tithe]]s to Kłecko. However, a settlement probably existed in this place much earlier, as Wilkowyja is mentioned as one of the settlements of the Kłecko stronghold.<ref>{{Cite web |title=KŁECKO - grodzisko "Barbara" |url=https://szlakpiastowski.pl/obiekty/trasa-polnoc-poludnie/klecko/grodzisko-barbara |access-date=2023-04-20 |website=Szlak piastowski |language=pl-pl}}</ref> In 1793 the heir of Wilkowyja was Mikołaj Węsierski.<ref>{{Cite web |date=2007-10-15 |title=Samorządowy serwis informacyjny Gminy Kłecko |url=http://www.klecko.pl/index.php?pid=214 |access-date=2023-04-20 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20071015184745/http://www.klecko.pl/index.php?pid=214 |archive-date=2007-10-15 }}</ref> On March 18, 1908, the village changed its name to Neu Paulsdorf as a result of the connection with the manor area of Polska Wieś (German: ''Gustsbezirke Paulsdorf'').<ref>{{Cite web |title=Willkommen bei Gemeindeverzeichnis.de |url=https://www.gemeindeverzeichnis.de/gem1900/gem1900.htm?posen/gnesen.htm |access-date=2023-04-20 |website=www.gemeindeverzeichnis.de}}</ref>
