history

Ziegnitz (formerly also Zignitz ) is mentioned in a feudal letter dated December 15, 1529 as von Boehn 's fiefdom , which their ancestors and fathers already owned. Until 1753 Ziegnitz consisted of two parts, the smaller of which belonged to the Besow (Bzowo) fief , which was also owned by the von Boehn family . Around 1684 Jürgen Anton von Kameke had rights to Ziegnitz. In 1720 the later district administrator Michael Ernst von Boehn inherited the larger part of Ziegnitz, was able to acquire the other, smaller part in 1753 and thus united the whole of Ziegnitz in his hand. In 1907 a member of the noble von Bonin family bought the estate, which remained in the family's possession until 1945.

1784 has become the place 1 Vorwerk , 1 water mill, 7 farmers, 3 Kossäten , 1 schoolmaster and 1 forging at a total of 23 hearths (households), also fisheries around a lake and four ponds.

In 1818 there were 205 inhabitants in Ziegnitz, their number rose to 346 by 1885 and was 294 in 1939.

Until 1945, Ziegnitz belonged to the district of Besow in the district of Schlawe i. Pom. in the administrative district of Köslin in the Prussian province of Pomerania . The place was also connected with Besow by a registry office , and also belonged to the district court district of Schlawe .

On March 7, 1945, the Red Army occupied the village. As a result of the war , Ziegnitz came to Poland and as Ściegnica is today a district of Gmina Kobylnica in the Powiat Słupski of the Pomeranian Voivodeship (until 1998 Stolp Voivodeship ).
