History
The small village of Vunkenhagen was first mentioned in a document in 1288 . The Funkenhagen estate was bought in 1848 by the Prussian Premier Lieutenant Albert Hermann Carl von Rhade for 57,200 thalers . In 1874, in one was Gutsbezirk and in a rural community divided place in the newly built office district Sorenbohm (today Polish: Sarbinowo) incorporated, which until 1945 to Pomerania in the administrative district of Koszalin in the Prussian province of Pomerania belonged.

In 1910 there were 168 people in the Funkenhagen estate and 227 in the rural community. In addition to agriculture, fishing was also carried out in Funkenhagen.
At the census in 1925, Funkenhagen had 505 inhabitants, of whom 236 (46.7%) were male and 269 (53.3%) were female. They lived in 100 households.
Before 1932 the neighboring village of Kiepersdorf (now in Polish: Koszkowo) and the Funkenhagen manor district were incorporated into the Funkenhagen rural community. The population in 1933 was 515, while in 1939 only 485 were counted, even though the municipality of Parpart (now in Polish: Paprotno) had been incorporated on October 1, 1937 .
Towards the end of the Second World War , the region on the Baltic coast with Funkenhagen was occupied by the Red Army . After the end of the war, Funkenhagen, like all of Western Pomerania , was placed under Polish administration. The village now received the Polish name Gąski . The immigration of Poles began, who initially came mainly from the areas east of the Curzon Line that had fallen to the Soviet Union . The German population was expropriated and expelled in the post-war period due to the Bierut decrees .
Today the village, with a population similar to that before 1945, is part of the Gmina Mielno group in the Koszaliński powiat in the West Pomeranian Voivodeship .
church
Evangelical
Before 1945 the population of Funkenhagen was almost without exception Protestant denomination. At the 1925 census, of 505 inhabitants, 504 (99.8%) belonged to the Protestant Church. Funkenhagen originally had its own parish church. However, she fell victim to the Baltic Sea in 1793 . Since then, Funkenhagen was parish in Sorenbohm (now in Polish: Sarbinowo), where initially there was only one chapel. The pastors lived in Funkenhagen until the landlord Lazarus Damitz declared that he did not want to rebuild the church in Funkenhagen.
Until 1945 the parish of Sorenbohm belonged to the church district of Köslin (Koszalin) in the church province of Pomerania of the Church of the Old Prussian Union . Due to the flight and displacement of the local population, the number of Protestant church members in Gąski became a minority. Today they belong to the parish of the Gertraudenkapelle in Koszalin (Köslin) in the diocese of Pomerania-Greater Poland of the Evangelical-Augsburg Church in Poland .
Catholic
The number of Catholics in Funkenhagen was so small that not a single Catholic church member was counted in 1925 . The responsible parish was that in Köslin (Koszalin). That changed after 1945, when almost only Catholic residents settled in Gąski. Today the former Protestant church in Sarbinowo (Sorenbohm) is the closest Catholic parish church. Sarbinowo belongs to the Mielno (Großmöllen) deanery in the Koszalin-Kołobrzeg (Köslin-Kolberg) diocese of the Catholic Church in Poland .
school
A school was built in Funkenhagen in 1852.

Funkenhagen lighthouse
Between 1876 and 1878, a lighthouse (Polish: Latarnia morska Gąski) was built in Funkenhagen, about 120 meters from the shore, which can be seen from a distance at a height of 50 meters. If it initially shone 35 kilometers, it was 43 kilometers after the switch from petroleum to electricity in 1927. The tower is made of red bricks.
In 1945 the optics were partially destroyed, and the system has been in operation again since 1948. Neighboring lighthouses are in Kołobrzeg (Kolberg) and Darłowo (Rügenwalde) . The tower is now a tourist magnet.
Nuclear power plant
More recently, Gąski has been under discussion as a location for a new nuclear power plant after the plan appeared to have been completed in late 2012. At that time, in addition to Gąski, Choczewo (Chottschow , 1938–1945 Gotendorf) and Żarnowiec (Zarnowitz) were possible locations, with the construction of a nuclear power plant on Lake Zarnowitz already beginning in the 1980s , which was then discontinued. As a result, the decision was made in favor of Gąski and an exact time schedule was drawn up for commissioning.
Politicians pointed to an economic upswing through the nuclear power plant for the region, which is one of the poorer in the republic. The protest groups stated that the nuclear power plant plans would prevent economic development and investment.
In June 2016 the planning for the Akw was stopped. With its first block, the nuclear power plant should go into operation around 2020, by 2030 then full operation should have started.
