Village entrance

The Gohren manor was formerly an old fiefdom of the Stojentin family . It was exchanged for the village of Gutzmerow by Captain George Wobeser in 1684 and has been a fief of the Wobeser family ever since. Around 1784 there was a Vorwerk, a watermill, ten farmers, seven Kossäts , a smithy, a schoolmaster in Gohren , on the Feldmark the Mohrhof Vorwerk , which was also called Gohrensches Vorwerk , six newly settled Büdner families , the Wusette timber maintenance company and a total of 32 households . Around 1800, Kashubian was hardly spoken in the village . The estate remained in the possession of the Wobeser family until 1837/39. Then the estate was acquired by Nikolaus von Below and remained in the possession of the Below family until 1945. After the well-known politician Nikolaus von Below , who died in Gohren in 1919, Rüdiger von Below took over the estate and in 1923 Wedig von Below , who became known as a gentleman rider.

The Vorwerk Hermannshöhe , south of Gohren, was settled in 1912/1913 by the Pomeranian Landgesellschaft . It initially remained part of the Gohren estate and only became an independent municipality when the estate was dissolved.

In 1925 there were 67 houses in the Gohren municipality. Before 1945, the village belonged to Gohren District Stojentin in county Stolp , administrative region of Pomerania , the province of Pomerania . In addition to the village of Gohren, there were the residential areas Gohren Mühle I, Gohren Mühle II, Grünhagen, Grünhof and Klein Horst in the municipality. The parish area was 1,267 hectares. In 1939 a total of 131 households and 553 inhabitants were counted.

Towards the end of World War II , Gohren was occupied by the Red Army on March 9, 1945 and soon afterwards was placed under Polish administration. In May 1945 a Polish mayor was installed. From June onwards, individual Poles followed and seized the farms. The village was renamed Górzyno . The estate was temporarily retained by the Soviet authorities, who set up a prisoner-of-war camp in the Deutsches Haus inn . From 1946 onwards, by order of the Polish administration, the villagers were driven west in groups of twenty to thirty people each .

After the end of the war, 208 villagers displaced from Gohren in the Federal Republic of Germany and 167 in the GDR were identified.

In 2008 Górzyno had 332 inhabitants.
