geography

Map of the rural community

The rural community is located in Pomerania on the Danziger Höhe . The municipality borders with the town of Kowale directly on the city of Gdansk . The area belongs to the Kashubian Switzerland and is rich in lakes and watercourses. The hydropower plants on the small river Radunia (Radaune) supplied electricity to the city and the companies in Gdansk as early as the end of the 19th century. 34 percent of the area is forested.

history

With the First Partition of Poland , the municipality became part of the Kingdom of Prussia and the Province of West Prussia in 1772 . From 1818 to 1920 the area belonged to the Karthaus district . Due to the provisions of the Versailles Treaty , the area with the district of Danziger Höhe fell to the Free City of Danzig after the First World War in 1920 .

In the wake of World War II , West Prussia came to Poland . The local population was displaced .

From 1975 to 1998 the rural community was part of the Gdansk Voivodeship . In 1998 the parish seat of Kolbudy Górne was renamed Kolbudy (Górne corresponds to the former superior ). Due to the good transport connections, the village of Kowale developed into a settlement with a suburban character.
