[edit]

Monument to local fighters for Polish independence

Borowy Młyn was a royal village of the Polish Crown, administratively located in the Człuchów County in the Pomeranian Voivodeship.[1]

During the German occupation of Poland (World War II), several inhabitants of the village were among over 450 Poles massacred by the Germans in the Igielska Valley near Chojnice in October and November 1939 (see Intelligenzaktion).[2]

From 1975 to 1998 the village was in Słupsk Voivodeship.
