history

The Wendish settlement civitas Barwitz was first mentioned in 1286.
In 1389 Hans Hechhusen and Reimer Pudwelsch were named as the owners of the town.
Under Duke Bogislaw X. the city and the villages belonging to it came to Pomerania in 1477 . Bärwalde was in the changing ownership of various Pomeranian aristocratic families, such as the four families of Glasenapp , Münchow , Wolde and Zastrow , to whom the land of Bärwalde and the Pileburg Heath jointly belonged from 1523.
Duke Johann Friedrich von Pomerania promoted the city and granted it the privileges to hold annual fairs in 1569, 1592 and 1597. The years of disputes between the aristocratic manor and the city council over jurisdiction in Bärwalde were settled in 1620 in favor of the manor. In 1626 a city fire destroyed the city.
During the Thirty Years War it was occupied by the Swedish troops of Gustav II Adolf in 1630 . The city suffered severe damage. When the Pomeranian ruling family died out, Bärwalde came under Brandenburg rule in 1653 .
During the Seven Years' War , Russian troops plundered and pillaged the city; all town documents were lost in the process. In 1766 Bärwalz was granted the right to hold a fourth annual fair. At that time the city had four gates, but was not walled. In the 18th century, its inhabitants lived from cloth and linen making as well as from agriculture. The cloth making trade died in the 19th century, instead dyeing and textile printing works were established. After the Prussian administrative reform, Bärwalde belonged to the Neustettin district from 1818 .
In 1854 the new construction of the town church, St. Stephen, began, which was completed after ten years. The neo-Gothic building made of red brick has a slender tower, which is equipped with three disc clocks and a bell. The interior of the nave is characterized by galleries and two rows of wooden posts that support the wooden mansard roof . The old church, which was partly from the end of the 13th century, was completely demolished in the course of the new building. At the beginning of the 20th century, Bärwalde had a synagogue and a district court in addition to the Protestant town church .
It was not until 1903 that Bärwalde was connected to the railway network with the line between Polzin and Gramenz . The station was laid out north of the city (today the former station is inhabited), and after the First World War the city expanded in its direction.
The new transport connection led to the establishment of new industrial companies, e.g. B. a machine and a sand-lime brick factory. Later it was planned to connect Bärwalde to the Reichsautobahn Berlin – Königsberg , which could not be completed due to the Second World War . The last remnants of the route that ends there are visible from the air southeast of the city.
During the Second World War , Bärwalde was hardly affected by direct acts of war. Occasionally, Soviet bombers flew over the city on their way to Szczecin . Some residents used the train station to flee to the west. After the end of the war, the Soviet Union placed Bärwalde together with all of Western Pomerania under the administration of the People's Republic of Poland . Bärwalde received the Polish name Barwice . After that, the gradual immigration of Polish migrants began, some of whom came from areas east of the Curzon Line , where they had belonged to the Polish minority. The remaining native German population was subsequently expelled from the city by the local Polish administrative authority .
