Geographical location

The village is located in Western Pomerania , on a flat ground moraine northwest of Słupsk . The district town is twelve kilometers on the way via Bruskowo Wielkie ( Groß Brüskow ) or via Strzelinko ( Klein Strellin ) and Voivodship Road 210 . The Baltic Sea town of Ustka ( Stolpmünde ) is the same distance to the northeast.

Since 1878 the place has been on the Słupsk – Ustka railway line , but it was not until 1945 that it had its own station.

history

Old building in overflow

In the parishes of Arnshagen ( Charnowo ) "the overflow" was mentioned as a forest in 1640. Because of the fairness of wood and pasture in the overflow, there were repeated disputes between the town of Stolp ( Słupsk ) and the manor owner of Groß Strellin (Strzelino) from Below to Machmin (Machomino).

In 1704 a large fire in the overflow is reported, which at that time belonged to Klein Strellin (Strzelinko). In 1803 the Stolp magistrate had the overflow measured: it was 892 acres in size, of which 124 square rods were arable and 155 square rods were meadows, everything else was forest, pasture, swamp and unpaved land.

The first settlement in Überlauf came into being in 1813, when the city of Stolp left a building site here to the freeman Peter Neumann . Another ten settlements were added in 1823. Overflow has been a separate community ever since. Between 1830 and 1840 the community expanded to around 30 fireplaces. In 1888 she got her own cemetery.

Overflow was the ideal location for a brick industry because of its heavy clay and clay soil . In 1818 a brick factory was also built here, which had to produce the stones required for the town of Stolp. In 1899 a new steam brick was built on a property near the Stolp – Stolpmünde railway line , which even had its own siding.

In 1910 there were 375 inhabitants in Überlauf. Their number rose to 400 by 1933 and was 414 in 1939.

Until 1945 Überlauf was a municipality in the district of Stolp in the administrative district of Köslin in the Prussian province of Pomerania . The administrative and civil registry district was Arnshagen (Charnowo) in the district court area of Stolp.

In January 1945, towards the end of the Second World War , the evacuation of the community was ordered, but the order was reversed. More than a month later, on March 6th, the evacuation was ordered again, but only partially implemented due to the close front, only one family managed to escape. On March 8, 1945 at 12 noon, Soviet infantry entered the village and occupied it. Several buildings burned down. The mayor was initially left in office by the Soviet troops, but then arrested; he died on May 26, 1945 in Neustrelitz. On May 22nd, the Soviet troops drove away the cattle. The villagers had to leave their place on May 30th, but were allowed to return after a few days. In summer Poland the village is owned by houses and homesteads. Here too there were rapes. In October 1945 a Polish administration was set up in Überlauf. Then the entire German village population was driven west . Overflow received the Polish place name Gałęzinowo .

188 villagers displaced from overflows in the Federal Republic of Germany and 139 in the GDR were later identified.

The village is now part of the rural municipality of Słupsk in the powiat Słupski in the Pomeranian Voivodeship (1975 to 1998 Slupsk Voivodeship ). Around 280 people live here today.

Castle ramparts

Remains of the old ramparts

About one kilometer north of the old brickworks there was a castle rampart (Grodzisko w Gałęzinowie) on the castle hill near the Słupia valley in prehistoric times . The slightly advanced tip had steep slopes on two sides. Before 1945, the farmer Boldt's homestead was located within the complex .

This complex was a typical stronghold in contrast to the pronounced swamp castles in Stolp ( Słupsk ), Lossin (Łosino) and Klein Podel (Podole Małe).

church

Before 1945 the population was almost exclusively of the Protestant denomination. Overflow's parish was Arnshagen (now in Polish: Charnowo), whose parish also included the Groß Strellin (Strzelino) branch church and the places Hohenstein (Wodnica), Klein Strellin (Strzelinko) and Neumühl (Korzec). The parish of Arnshagen was in the parish of Stolp-Stadt in the eastern district of the church province of Pomerania of the Church of the Old Prussian Union . The church patronage was held by the magistrate of the city of Stolp and the Groß Strelliner estate. In 1940 there were 1755 parishioners in the Arnshagen parish.

A predominantly Catholic population has lived in Gałęzinowo since 1945 . The place belongs to Charnowo ( Arnshagen ), which today - like the village of Zimowiska - is a branch church in the parish Najwiętszego Zbawiciela in Ustka ( Stolpmünde ). It belongs to the deanery Ustka in the diocese of Köslin-Kolberg of the Catholic Church in Poland . Evangelical church members living here are assigned to the parish of the Kreuzkirche parish in Słupsk in the diocese of Pomerania-Greater Poland of the Evangelical-Augsburg Church in Poland .

school

A school was established in Overflow in 1843. The schoolhouse was changed in the course of time by additions and renovations, the farm building was replaced by a new one in 1909. In 1932 the school had two levels and one teacher taught 69 school children in two classes. In 1941 Überlauf received a new school building.
