history

The former Swante or Swantee estate belonged to the Lessaken community.

The Münchow family already owned a farm in Lessaken and a Holzkavel in Swantee when they expanded their property here by purchasing them in 1745. Around 1784 the estate was owned by Captain Kaspar Friedrich von Massow ; it had two fire pits.

In 1864, the Swantee Manor estate comprised 619.14 acres of arable land, 85.86 acres of meadows and 58.34 acres of logging.

Brüggemann describes Swante as an "old Putkammer fiefdom ". In 1864 the property had to be forcibly auctioned due to excessive indebtedness. On the title page of the mortgage book it was noted: "According to the listing in the old country book, it is an old von Puttkammern Lehn, in the Lehnbriefe de 1618 1622 and 1665 it is not recorded by name." Members of the Puttkamer family asserted claims as beneficiaries to enforce a right of first refusal, but these were rejected by the court because the evidence could not be provided that Swantee was actually a Puttkamer fiefdom. The value of the property was set at over 8,713 thalers .

The last owners were Boehlke (1884), Schneider (1910), Hans Hugo Hilgendorff (1924) and Hugo Westphal auf Zewitz (1928). Swantee, which was last incorporated into Lessaken, had a total of 29 inhabitants in 1910.

As a village in the municipality of Lessaken, Swantee, which was renamed Schwansee on December 29, 1937 , was incorporated into the Bochowke district and registry office (Bochówko). He belonged to the district of Stolp in the administrative district of Köslin of the Prussian province of Pomerania of the German Empire .

Towards the end of World War II , the region was occupied by the Red Army in early March 1945 . Soon afterwards Lessaken with the district Schwansee was placed under Polish administration together with the whole of Western Pomerania . Subsequently, the immigration of Polish civilians began in Lessaken and the district of Schwansee. Schwansee received the Polish place name Święte . In the following time the inhabitants of Lessaken and Schwansee were expelled .

Today's Święte belongs to the Gmina Cewice in the powiat Lęborski in the Pomeranian Voivodeship (1975 to 1998 Slupsk Voivodeship ).
