History

The history of Zaspa, and thus Zaspa-Młyniec, can be found at Zaspa § History; the village of Młyniec, known in German as Mühlenhof, was first mentioned in 1734 and was a small settlement centered around a mill for much of its recorded existence, becoming part of Oliwa in 1864. It entered the city boundaries Gdańsk in 1926 as a part of Oliwa. It was developed in the 1970s, after an airport that operated in Zaspa had shut down, as part of the district of Zaspa. In 1990, it was separated into its own district. The current district does not cover the entirety of the former borders of Młyniec.^[3][4]
