Bielice ( German Beelitz ) is a village in the West Pomeranian Voivodeship in Poland . It is the seat of the Gmina Bielice (rural community Beelitz) and belongs with this to the Powiat Pyrzycki ( Powiat Pyritz) .

Geographical location

The place is in Western Pomerania , 12 kilometers northwest of the city of Pyritz ( Pyrzyce ) and 17 kilometers southeast of the city of Greifenhagen ( Gryfino ) on the Oder .

The place is connected to the road network via a side road with little traffic, the Gardno ( Garden ) on the voivodeship roads 119 (Radziszewo ( Retzowsfelde ) - Gardno) and 120 ( Gryfino ( Greifenhagen ) - Kobylanka ( Kublank )) with a line ( Leine ) and Żabów ( Sabow ) on Landesstraße 3 ( Świnoujście ( Swinemünde ) - Jakuszyce ( Jakobsthal ), here former German Reichsstraße 112 , today also Europastraße 65 ) connects.

A rail connection has not existed since 1996. Until then, and since 1898, the Pyritzer Bahnen and the Polish State Railway had operated a small railway line from Pyritz to Klein Schönfeld (Chwarstnica).

Place name

The place name Beelitz occurs three times. The spelling for the Pyritzer Beelitz was 1235 Belitcze , 1240 Beliz , 1249 Belitz and then Beelitz until 1945 .

history

Beelitz ( Belitz ) southwest of Madüsees ( Madui Lacus ) on the Lubinschen map from 1618 (detail).
Village church (Protestant until 1945).

The first mention of the village comes from the year 1235: In a document issued in 1235, Swantibor , castellan of Kolberg, confirmed the ownership of the village to the Kolbatz monastery , which had bought the monastery from one of his vassals named Crisanus. In 1240 the village appeared under the name Beliz in a document with which Duke Barnim I of Pomerania confirmed his ownership to the Kolbatz monastery. The village is also under the name Beliz in an allegedly from 1226 ownership confirmation in favor of the monastery, which is recognized as a forgery. With a document from 1249, Duke Barnim I declared that he had taken possession of the Kolbatz monastery in and around Damm, including the village written here, Belitz , as a fief for life in order to build a town here - namely the town of Altdamm .

Belitz is entered on the Lubin map from 1618 .

Beelitz formed from 1816 to 1945 a municipality in the district of Pyritz in the administrative district of Stettin in the Prussian province of Pomerania . It was most recently incorporated into the administrative and civil registry district of Alt Falkenberg.

Towards the end of the Second World War , the Red Army occupied the region in the spring of 1945 . Soon afterwards Beelitz was placed under Polish administration together with the whole of Western Pomerania . The place name was Polonized as Bielice. As far as the residents had not fled, the local Polish administrative authorities drove them west across the Oder .

The village is now part of the Powiat Pyrzycki in the West Pomeranian Voivodeship (until 1998 Szczecin Voivodeship ). Bielice today has 560 inhabitants and is the seat of Gmina Bielice of the same name .

church

Before 1945, the Beelitz population was predominantly of Protestant denomination. The village was before the Reformation filial community in the parish (Polish today: Parsów) Wartenberg and thus belonged to the parish of Kolbatz (Kołbacz) in the ecclesiastical province of Pomerania of the Prussian Union of churches . In 1940 a total of 570 parishioners belonged to the Beelitz branch.

Since 1945 there has been an almost exclusively Roman Catholic population in Bielice . The church is now called Kościół pw.Matki Boskiej Królowej Polski (Mother of God, Queen of Poland). Today the village itself is the seat of a parish belonging to the deanery Kołbacz ( Kolbatz ) in the Archdiocese of Stettin-Cammin of the Catholic Church in Poland . Evangelical church members who live here are looked after by the parish office in Stettin in the diocese of Wroclaw of the Evangelical-Augsburg Church in Poland .
