history

The village was first mentioned in 1263 when Hermann von Gleichen , Bishop of Cammin , established the district of the new parish church in Fritzow . Leycowe also belonged to the parish villages after Fritzow . Leikow remained parish after the Reformation and until 1945 in Fritzow.

The village is laid out in the form of a small street village. The place name is of Slavic origin.

The village is registered as Lekow on the Lubin map from 1618 .

In modern times, Leikow was a fiefdom of the noble Münchow family . As such, it was first mentioned in 1666. In contrast to most other noble-owned villages, no manor was established in Leikow . The originally six, later five, large farm positions remained.

In Ludwig Wilhelm Brüggemann's detailed description of the current state of the Royal Prussian Duchy of Western and Western Pomerania (1784), Leickow is listed among the noble estates of the Principality of Cammin . At that time there were five farms and a total of ten households (“fire places”). The village is referred to as the old Münchow fiefdom, but was then owned by a von Lettow woman .

Leikow was owned by the Münchow family, with interruptions, until the landlord and rural conditions were regulated in the 19th century (see: Prussian Agrarian Constitution ). Even within the framework of regulation, the farmers did not give up any land to the previous manorial rule. As Heinrich Berghaus describes in the land book of the Duchy of Pomerania and the Principality of Rügen (1867), Leikow still counted as a manor of the Münchow family in the legal sense, although the manor had no land there .

In 1859 the Belgard – Kolberg railway was built east of the village . On the northern edge of the Leikow district on the border with Fritzow , a train station was set up that was named after the more important Fritzow. A settlement developed near the train station in the area of the municipality of Leikow, officially called Fritzow train station , often also called Neu Leikow.

With the dissolution of the manor districts in Prussia in 1928, the neighboring manor districts of Putzernin and Zürkow were incorporated into Leikow. Until 1945, the municipality of Leikow with its residential areas at the Fritzow , Putzernin and Zürkow stations belonged to the Kolberg-Körlin district .

After the Second World War , Leikow, like all of Western Pomerania, came to Poland. The place name was Polonized as Łykowo , the population was expelled and replaced by Poles.
