== History == The village, situated 14 km east of the city of Przemyśl was first mentioned in 1515 in a royal charter under the name of Szechinie. For most of its existence the village belonged to the Land of Przemyśl, itself part of the Ruthenian Voivodeship of the Kingdom of Poland and then (since 1772) Austrian Galicia.
