In older times the village was fiefdom property of noble families. Around 1784 there were two farms in Zewitz, seven farmers, seven kossaten , two inns, one of which was called Heidekrug and on the Poststrasse Stolp - Lauenburg i. Pom. lay, a schoolmaster, on the Feldmark the Bohr Vorwerk on the Buckowin River and a total of 17 households. The owners of the two Zewitz estates were the wife of Chamberlain Joachim August von Wobeser , Maria Henrietta von Wobeser, née von Weiher , and the widow Carolina Ludovica von Deminski , née von Schachmann. In the first half of the 19th century, the Grell and Pirch families lived in Zewitz.

In 1910 the village (municipality and manor district) had 574 inhabitants. The number rose to 731 by 1933 and was still 713 in 1939. The villages and residential areas were incorporated: Annenhof, Zewitz train station, Heidekrug, Leßnickhof and Zewitzer Boor.

The 20.5 km² community area housed a total of five residential areas:

  • Zewitz train station
  • Heather jug
  • Leßnickhof
  • Zewitz
  • Zewitzer Boor

Zewitz belonged to the district of Zewitz, which included two communities: Zeitz and Labuhn . The registry office was in Labuhn.

In 1945 the district of Zewitz belonged to the district of Lauenburg i. Pom. in the administrative district of Köslin in the Prussian province of Pomerania of the German Empire .

Towards the end of the Second World War , Zewitz was occupied by the Soviet Army at the beginning of March 1945 and some time later, along with all of Western Pomerania, it was placed under Polish administration. Subsequently, the immigration of Polish civilians began in the village. Zewitz received the Polish place name Cewice . In the period that followed, the old residents of Zewitz were expelled .

Today Cewice belongs to the powiat Lęborski (Lauenburg) of the Polish Pomeranian Voivodeship (until 1998 Slupsk Voivodeship ). The place is part and official seat of Gmina Cewice. Today around 1700 people live here.
