Place name
The place was previously only called Damnitz and was given the name Hebron-Damnitz - to distinguish it from the (Raths-) Damnitz (now in Polish: Dębnica Kaszubska) 20 kilometers further south - after Colonel Daniel Hepburn . When the followers of Queen Maria Stuart were persecuted, the Scottish nobleman Alexander Hepburn fled to Stargard in Pomerania . His son Daniel Hepburn , born on October 16, 1584 in Stargard, was an imperial colonel during the Thirty Years' War and in 1617 acquired the Damnitz estate.
Instead of the spelling “Hebron-Damnitz”, the spelling “Hebrondamnitz” was officially established on September 10, 1934.
history
According to the historical form of the village , Hebrondamnitz is a narrow street . In 1407 Pribe and Woldach were called Kuseke zu Lüthen Damnitz . In 1469 , Duke Erich II of Pomerania enfeoffed the brothers Klaus and Lorenz von Stojentin with several villages, including Damnitz. In 1485 and 1585 it was owned by the von Schwave family .
In the 18th century the estate came into the possession of the Hainsky family . Lieutenant General Johann von Hainsky handed the goods over to Siegmund von Hainsky on July 13, 1725 . His heir-daughter Henriette Dorothea von Hainsky married the noble Oberamtmann Johann Christoph von Thiele and after the death of the same in 1756 Friedrich Bogislaw von Puttkamer became the district administrator of the Stolp district. The estate remained in the Puttkamer family until the 19th century.
1784 there was a Hebrondamnitz in Vorwerk , a water mill, six farmers or four , half-peasant , three Kossäten , a forge and a schoolmaster and a total of 24 households.
In 1835, Lieutenant Colonel Heinrich Karl Philip von Damnitz acquired the estate. The last owners were Richard von Blankensee (1884), Freiherr Karl von Gamp-Massaunen (1910), Klara Freifrau von Gamp-Massaunen (1924) and Karl Armster-Gamp (1938).
Before 1945, Hebrondamnitz formed its own administrative district in the district of Stolp in the administrative district of Köslin in the province of Pomerania . The place was the seat of a registry office and a gendarmerie . District court area was Stolp . The parish area was 1,544 hectares. Until 1945 there were a total of six places of residence on the parish:
- Dismantling Hebrondamnitz
- Hebrondamnitz train station
- Chausseehaus
- Damnitzhof
- Hebrondamnitz
- Mill Hebrondamnitz
In 1925 there were 53 residential buildings in Hebrondamnitz. The remnants had an area of 750 hectares, of which 55 hectares were arable land and 695 hectares were forest. In addition to the estate, there were 86 farms. Before 1945 the village had a baker, a building contractor, a butcher, an inn and a train station restaurant, two grocery stores, a paint shop, a sawmill, a blacksmith's shop and a cattle shop. In 1939 there were 181 households and 717 inhabitants.
Towards the end of the Second World War , the Red Army conquered Hebrondamnitz on March 8, 1945 and, like all of Western Pomerania, placed it under the administration of the People's Republic of Poland . They renamed Hebrondamnitz Damnica , then drove out the entire population and replaced them with Poland .
Later 340 villagers displaced from Hebrondamnitz were identified in the Federal Republic of Germany and 174 in the GDR .
The village is now the official seat of Gmina Damnica, named after him, in the Powiat Słupski in the Pomeranian Voivodeship (1975 to 1998 Slupsk Voivodeship ). About 1250 people now live here.
