History
Middle Ages to 1800
The town was first mentioned in 1398. In that year, it is written that Nowy Dwór Królewski bred 32 horses, 20 cattle, 215 sheep, and 90 pigs. It appeared in German in documents and chronicles as Nuwenhof, Nuwenhuf, Nuwemhoff, and Koenigliche Neuhof. From 1398 to 1421 it was a village of the Teutonic Order. In 1505 the village was owned by the Bishop of Chełmno.
In 1772, during the Polish Partition, the village became the property of West Prussia, in the department Kwidzyn. The first known census of residents was taken in 1773.
Recent times
Shortly before the outbreak of World War II, most inhabitants left their homes in fear of the Germans. Soon after the start of the war, the village was taken over. At that time parts of the village were destroyed.
From 1975 to 1998 the village belonged to the administrative region of Toruń. In 1996, it was connected to the telephone network (in area code 56).
