In the medieval era, a castle was constructed in the 13th and 14th centuries, only to be rebuilt in the 16th century. However, it suffered significant damage between the 17th and 19th centuries. The devastating plague epidemic of 1647 had a profound impact on Dobra's population, leading to a drastic decline from over 600 to just 48 people. From then on, the town became part of Prussia in the 18th century and Germany from 1871 to 1945.
