In 1754 it was bought by the war councilor Christian Albrecht von Hirsch . On October 23, 1762, the council of war sold him to Lieutenant Ludwig von Vigny . He sold it to Major General Otto Kasimir von Versen as early as 1768 . After his death, the oldest daughter Albertine inherited, who sold her share to her stepmother. After her death, he bequeathed it to her nephew August Wilhelm Heinrich von der Osten .

In 1824 the bankers, the Oppenfeld brothers from Berlin, bought the estate with its preliminary works. The family was later ennobled. In the last years before 1945, Leopold von Oppenfeld managed the estate with the old and new Ritzerow and Karlshof works.

The rural community of Reinfeld was created in 1928 by merging the estate districts of Reinfeld and Ritzerow .

In 1939 a total of 589 people lived in 152 households in the 2494.9 hectare community. The majority of the population worked in agriculture and forestry.

On March 5, 1945 Reinfeld was occupied by Russian troops. At the end of 1945, the resident population began to be expelled . Reinfeld became Polish and is now part of the Świdwin rural community as Bierzwnica.
