history

The village was laid out in the Middle Ages in the Duchy of Pomerania as part of the German East Settlement in the form of an anger village. The village was mentioned for the first time, already under the place name "Drenow", in a document from 1276, with which the Camminer Bishop Hermann von Gleichen regulated the decoration of the Kolberg cathedral chapter . The cathedral chapter was entitled to the tithe from Drenow. Also in 1276, the Kreiherbach west of Drenow was set as the western border of the secular territory of the Camminer bishops.

Drenow was an old fiefdom of the noble Manteuffel family , who owned it for the first time in 1315. In the Pomeranian Hufenmatrikel of 1628, however, Drenow appeared, like the neighboring Zarben , in the ducal possession under the villages of the Treptow office . On the Great Lubin map of the Duchy of Pomerania from 1618 "Drenow" is entered.

In 1666 Lorenz Christoph von Somnitz , Chancellor of Western Pomerania, owned Drenow. Drenow owned his descendants until 1748, when Mathias Döring von Somnitz sold Drenow.

From 1772 various improvements were carried out in the area of the estate, for which King Friedrich II granted financial support. This included the construction of a new settlement in the eastern area of the Drenow district. This settlement was named Charlottenhof after a daughter of the then landowner.

In Ludwig Wilhelm Brüggemann's detailed description of the current state of the Royal Prussian Duchy of Western and Western Pomerania (1784), Drenow is listed among the aristocratic estates of the Principality of Cammin . At that time there was a farm in Drenow, ie the farm, a watermill, a sheep farm, eleven farmers, a half-farmer, two cottages and a smithy, a total of 33 households (“fire places”). The watermill mentioned was the Neumühl am Kreiherbach, which Mathias Döring von Somnitz had already sold in 1747.

The end of the 18th century was Vorwerk named Hans Hausen created, but this is the last time mentioned in 1864 and was then abandoned. In the middle of the 19th century, the Sophienhof Vorwerk was laid out west of Charlottenhof .

As part of the separation , the greater part of the land was assigned to the farm, the smaller part to the farms. In 1870, when the estate belonged to an Oberamtmann Peterssen, the estate comprised 671 hectares of land. Around 1910 the then landowner sold about half of the land, which went to various buyers in Drenow and neighboring Naugard . The Sophienhof Vorwerk was also split up and several new farms were created.

In the 19th century the manor Drenow and the rural community Drenow existed side by side. The manor district Drenow comprised (as of 1864) an area of 688 hectares and had (as of 1867) 139 inhabitants. The rural community Drenow comprised (as of 1864) an area of 620 hectares and had (as of 1867) 589 inhabitants. After the partial settlement of the estate, the estate district was incorporated into the rural municipality of Drenow after 1910.

Until 1945, the rural community of Drenow with its residential areas Neumühl , Charlottenhof and Sophienhof belonged to the Kolberg-Körlin district in the Prussian province of Pomerania .

In 1945, Drenow, like all of Western Pomerania, came to Poland. The population was evicted and replaced by Poles . The place name was Polonized to "Drzonowo". Today the place belongs to the Gmina Kołobrzeg (rural municipality Kolberg) .
