history

Village church, formerly the church of the Zarnowitz nunnery

Traditional forms of the place name are Zarnowitz (approx. 1215), Sarnovicz (1220) and Czarnoeitz (1425); In 1215 the Oliva Monastery received the village, which belonged to the Danzig Castle District and was administratively under the Castellan von Putzig, from the Pomeranian prince Sobiesław II , son of Sambor I and nephew of Mestwin I , as a gift. The Zarnowitz nunnery was founded in the village as a branch of the Oliva monastery even before 1235 . In 1309 the village came to the Teutonic Order together with Pomeranians .

When Prussia was divided into two by the Second Peace of Thorn , the Putziger area was assigned to the autonomous Prussian Royal Part under the auspices of the Crown of Poland . By his decree of March 16, 1569 on the Lublin Sejm , King Sigismund II August unilaterally terminated the autonomy of West Prussia under threat of severe penalties, which is why the sovereignty of the Polish king in this part of the former territory of the Teutonic Order from 1569 to 1772 as foreign rule was felt.

During the first partition of Poland in 1772, Zarnowitz came to the Kingdom of Prussia . In 1789 Zarnowitz is described as a royal village and leasehold farm with a Catholic church, a Benedictine nunnery and 23 fireplaces (households). 1808 was the Żarnowieckie farmers who were liable to serve on the royal domain Zarnowitz, emancipation arranged. In 1864 the parish had an area of ​​5,260.51 acres , 49 residential buildings and three commercial buildings were within the parish boundaries.

In 1919 the village was Zarnowitz the county Puck in the administrative district of Gdansk the province of West Prussia of the German Reich assigned.

After the First World War , most of the Putzig district, including Zarnowitz, had to be ceded to Poland on January 10, 1920 for the purpose of establishing the Polish Corridor due to the provisions of the Versailles Treaty . After the invasion of Poland in 1939, the district was annexed by the German Reich; Zarnowitz was assigned to the Neustadt district in West Prussia in the Reichsgau Danzig-West Prussia , to which the place belonged until 1945.

Towards the end of the Second World War , the region was occupied by the Red Army in the spring of 1945 . In the period that followed, the German natives, who had not fled before, were largely expelled as part of the “ westward displacement of Poland ” .
