history
Hof Schwetz was founded around 1390 as a branch of the Rehden order house at the time of the Teutonic Order ; the village of Schwetz existed since 1404.
The region came as part of the first partition of Poland-Lithuania in 1772, through which, under Frederick II of Prussia, western parts of Prussia were reunited with the eastern part of the Kingdom of Prussia to the extent that these parts had been connected with each other at the time of the Teutonic Order State of Prussia to Graudenz with Schwetz to the Kingdom of Prussia. In 1789 Schwetz is referred to as a royal village with a watermill , a Vorwerk and 30 fireplaces (households), which belongs to the Rehden domain office. From 1818 to 1920 the village of Schwetz belonged to the district of Graudenz in the West Prussian administrative district of Marienwerder .
After the First World War , Schwetz had to be ceded to Poland due to the provisions of the Versailles Treaty of 1920 for the establishment of the Polish Corridor with the entire district of Graudenz . The German invasion of Poland in September 1939 brought the district back into the Reich and was now assigned to the Graudenz district , Reichsgau Danzig-West Prussia , in the Marienwerder district , to which Schwetz belonged until 1945.
Towards the end of the Second World War , the Red Army occupied the region in the spring of 1945 . Where German villagers had not fled, they were in the period that followed sold .
