history

Ulrichsfelde is a settlement from the time of Frederick the Great . Around 1780, the War and Domain Chamber laid out the new village of Ulrichsfelde with a sheep farm and eight Büdners on the western part of the Kublitz district (now in Polish: Kobylnica) . In 1939 there were 198 inhabitants in 50 households on the 246 hectare area of ​​the municipality.

Until 1945 the village belonged nobleman Kublitz (Kobylniczka) Kublitz (Kobylnica), Lossin (Losino) Sanskow (Zajączkowo) and Veddin (Widzino) for District of Lossin in county Stolp in Administrative district Köslin of the Prussian province of Pomerania . Lossin was also the seat of the responsible registry office . District court area was Stolp . Albert Voss was the last German mayor .

When the Red Army approached Ulrichsfelde towards the end of the Second World War in March 1945 , the inhabitants set out on the trek and fled to the north of the district. On the night of March 8, 1945, the village was occupied by the Red Army. The residents returned to their village for a short time. Ulrichsfelde was renamed Bolesławice . The villagers were evicted .
