Situated in the Subcarpathian Voivodship (since 1999), previously in Krosno Voivodship (1975-1998) and Sanok District, (10 miles east of Sanok), parish Bukowsko.
Dudyńce was founded in 1372 by prince Władysław Opolczyk. From 966-1018, 1340-1772 (Ruthenian Voivodeship) and from 1918-1939 Dudyńce was part of Poland. While during 1772-1918 it belonged to Austrian empire, later Austrian-Hungarian empire when double monarchy was introduced in Austria.
On April, 1946 the village was attacked by a strong unit of UPA and some buildings were burnt. Only over a dozen years after the war the village started to rebuild. Some people left Dudynce on April 29, 1947 (Akcja Wisla) and moved to the Gdansk area of Poland. Some people went to Ukraine in 1946. Dudyńce has a church (R. Catholic) and outside the church there's a cemetery. The rural families are poor, agriculture is rarely profitable and low income makes it difficult for farms to invest in from improvements.
