The two fiefs, Bitzicker and Crazig , were owned by the Kranksporn family in the 14th century and were sold by them to the Camminer Bishop Philipp Lumbach von Rehberg († 1385) together with Nassow Castle and some other goods . In 1766 the village came to the von Kameke family ; Otto Bonaventura von Kameke inherited it in 1861. At the end of the 19th century, the village was owned by the von Kameke family, the last landlord was Ewald Friedrich Graf von Hertzberg , who lived in the estate, which was built around the turn of the century, and ran a distillery.
In 1945 Biziker belonged to district Koszalin in the administrative district of Koszalin the Prussian province of Pomerania of the German Reich .
