Charbrowo, called Serberow in old documents , is an old church village with an outbuilding that used to be an aristocratic seat. In 1286, Duke Mestwin II of Pomerania gave Charbrow to the Kujavian cathedral chapter in Leslau . In 1564 the Lauenburg governor Ernst von Weiher , the older brother of the Camminer bishop Martin von Weiher , bought the villages Charbrow, Labenz and Ossecken , which had previously belonged to the Zuckau monastery , from the Leslau bishop Jakub Uchański for 12,000 thalers . In the 17th century, Charbrow fell to the Krockow family . Around the middle of the 18th century, the estate was bought by the Somnitz family , who managed it until the end of the Second World War in the spring of 1945. Around 1780 there was in Charbrow: a farm with a representative manor house, a water mill , a church with a preacher and a sexton , eleven farmers, five half-farmers , five kossaten , an inn, a forge and a total of 43 fireplaces (households). In addition to farming, the villagers also went fishing on Lake Leba and in three ponds. A market was held in the village twice a year. In the centuries before the land reform in Western Pomerania at the beginning of the 19th century, the village was owned by the Somnitz family.

During the Nazi era , Charbrow was renamed Degendorf in 1938 .

Towards the end of the Second World War Degendorf was occupied by the Red Army in the spring of 1945 and then placed under Polish administration. Based on its traditional name Charbrow, Degendorf was renamed Charbrowo . Until about 1947, the German population was from the village sold .

Since the Reformation in 1671 Lutheran pastor had looked after the parish until the year. Subsequently, Protestant Reformed clergy were active in the community until 1736, and then Lutheran clergy again until 1945. The church has been under the patronage of the von Somnitz-Charbrow family since the middle of the 18th century. As in Osseken and some other places in the Kashubian angle, in the 19th century the village church still preached in Kashubian in addition to German . Well-known pastors were:

  • Paul Caßius (born October 5, 1667, † January 25, 1727) was pastor in Charbrow from July 1690 to mid-October 1701.
  • Johann Behnke (* 1739), was pastor in Charbrow around 1780.
  • August Bechthold was a pastor in Charbrow around 1870
  • Kurt Trowitzsch, last German pastor before 1945
