history

The village is first mentioned in a document in 1321; In 1425 two cousins ​​from the old Pomeranian noble family of the Bünnewitz sold the village with four farms for 550 Marks Finkenaugen to the city of Cammin. While the city of Cammin was incorporated into the state association of Friedrich Wilhelm , the Great Elector, after the Swedish-Brandenburg War (1674–1679) , its possessions in Bünnewitz remained under Swedish sovereignty until 1721. Around 1780, there were four in Bünnewitz half peasants , two Kossäten , a Büdner and eight fireplaces. In 1867 the village had four half-farmers, two kossas and a total of 51 inhabitants, who were spread over seven houses.

In the period 1871–1872, a cement factory was built in Bünnewitz. This covered an area of ​​281,015 m² and had its own navigable canal and its own marl pits . After the operating company went into liquidation before the First World War , 31,452 m² of land was sold to the Pomeranian settlement company Stettin for the construction of workers' houses. In 1921 the factory was shut down. The chimneys of the cement factory in Bünnewitz were used as landmarks when navigating the waters at the mouth of the Oder.

Until 1945 Bünnewitz formed a rural community that became part of the administrative district Gristow in the district of Cammin i. Pom. belonged to the Prussian province of Pomerania . In the 1930s, the district of Bünnewitz had a size of 125.6 hectares, and there were a total of 22 residential buildings on the parish grounds. In addition to Bünnewitz, the Stettin-Gristower Portland cement factory lived in the community . In 1925 there were 318 inhabitants in Bünnewitz, who were distributed over 81 households.

Towards the end of the Second World War , the two villages of Gristow and Bünnewitz on the island of Gristow were defended until April 26, 1945 . At 2 p.m. on March 4, the population was asked to prepare to flee and await the evacuation order. On March 5, the hasty escape with watercraft took place under fire by the Red Army . At the end of the war, the last fighting in Western Pomerania took place on the Dievenow. After the end of the war Bünnewitz became part of Poland as Buniewice .
