history

In the land register of 1337 Blankenfelde is listed as a German village with 57 hooves , 4 of which are parish hooves, 16 hooves are the man's back of the knight Stauenow. After several changes of ownership, the place went to the von Sack family, who owned it until after the Thirty Years' War . Half of the property was temporarily pledged to the Königsberg Augustinian monastery. In 1797 von Tresckow bought the estate and owned it until 1945.

During the Second World War , a department of the Aviation Ministry, the Institute for Vibration Research, was relocated to Blankenfelde.

At the end of the Second World War , Soviet troops occupied the surrounding villages on January 31, 1945, but did not arrive at Blankenfelde until February 4. So the people from the institute and some residents were able to flee. Soon after, the region was placed under Polish administration. The immigration of Polish civilians then began in Blankenfelde. These came mainly from areas east of the Curzon Line . Their areas of origin in what was formerly Eastern Poland were conquered by Poland in the Polish-Soviet War (1919–1921), fell to the Soviet Union with the Soviet occupation in 1939, were occupied by the Germans during the German invasion of the Soviet Union in 1941 and returned after the Second World War The Soviet Union. Blankenfelde received the Polish name Brwice . At the end of June 1945 the villagers were evicted by the local Polish administration .

Between 1882 and 1992 Blankenfelde or Brwice was a train station on the Stargard Szczeciński – Godków railway ( Stargard in Pomerania – Jädickendorf ), which was abandoned in 1992 by the Polish State Railways for economic reasons .
