history
Barłożno is located in the historical region of Kociewie on the edge of the Tucheler Heide , a forested biosphere reserve along the Black Water River and has its own regional cultural character with its own dialect.
The village served as a parish seat from the 14th century at the latest , as the brick-built and restored church in the center of the village testifies to this day. In the second half of the 16th century , Barłożno belonged to the First Polish Republic as a crown estate and was part of the former Pomeranian Voivodeship . Administratively, the village belonged to the then Starostei Osiek until 1773 .
During the partitions of Poland , Barłożno fell to the Kingdom of Prussia at the end of the 18th century and, as Barloschno, belonged to the then newly formed province of West Prussia . After Polish independence was regained in 1919, the Pomeranian Voivodeship was re-established in the Second Polish Republic . With the attack of the Wehrmacht on Poland in 1939, the village fell to the Reichsgau Danzig-West Prussia founded by the German occupiers until the end of the Second World War , in which it was named Schenkenberg .
After 1945, Barłożno belonged to the centrally administered People's Republic of Poland as a Schulzenamt . Between 1950 and 1975 it was part of the Bydgoszcz Voivodeship and of the Gdansk Voivodeship from 1975 to 1998 .
