Augustthal (Prillwitz)

Augustthal was a residential area in the Prussian province of Pomerania . Today it lies in a desolate area of ​​the West Pomeranian Voivodeship in Poland .

The desert is located in Western Pomerania , about 50 kilometers south-east of Stettin and about 13 kilometers south-east of the district town of Pyritz .

Augustthal was laid out in 1804 as a preliminary work of the Prillwitz manor about ½ mile south-southwest of Prillwitz on the northern edge of the Prillwitz Forest. The landowner of Prillwitz, August Heinrich von Borgstede , gave the Vorwerk the place name "Augustthal". A brickyard was also set up at the Vorwerk.

The population census in the German Empire in 1871 counted 62 inhabitants in 5 houses in Augustthal, and 77 inhabitants in 1910. Augustthal belonged to the Prillwitz manor district .

Later Augustenthal was awarded the Gutsbezirk Prillwitz in the rural community incorporated Prillwitz. Until 1945 Augustthal formed a district of the municipality of Prillwitz and belonged with this to the district of Pyritz in the Prussian province of Pomerania .

After the Second World War, Augustthal, like all of Western Pomerania, came to Poland . Today Augustthal lies in a desolate area of Gmina Przelewice in the West Pomeranian Voivodeship .
