History
Wolica has no history of its own, its history was connected with Ostrów.
It was only from 1926 that it stood to become independent. The name was created from a ravine in high embankments in which Tatars set up a magazine with weapons called zwolice in 1624.
In 1880, the largest estate in the village belonged to Józef Stojałowski.
