The village was formed in 1915 by merging the previous places Chotzlow (in the west) and Vitröse (in the east) into a rural community. This new rural community was named Mackensen after Field Marshal August von Mackensen .
The place Chotzlow was first mentioned in the 14th century. Since the 16th century it appeared in the possession of the noble Pirch family .
The place Vitröse (formerly Viterese or Witorese ) was first mentioned in 1402, it was also formerly owned by the Pirch family.
In 1912 the estates in Chotzlow and Vitröse were relocated and 69 farms were set up. The rural community of Mackensen, formed in 1915, had 545 inhabitants in 1939; before 1945 it belonged to the district of Lauenburg i. Pom. the Prussian province of Pomerania .
Towards the end of the Second World War , the Red Army occupied the region in the spring of 1945 . Soon afterwards Mackensen was placed under Polish administration together with the whole of Western Pomerania . Subsequently, the immigration of Polish civilians began in Mackensen. The village was given the Polish name Chocielewko . In the period that followed the Alteinwohner were from Mackensen sold .
