history

The village of Schöningen was founded after the Madüsee was lowered in 1770 under Frederick the Great. This gained land, but above all, quarry land could now be drained. For the village, land was branched off from the field marrow of the neighboring patch of Werben , on which 20 settler positions were created. The new settlement was named Schöningen after Hans Friedrich von Schöning , the then President of the Pomeranian War and Domain Chamber , whose von Schöning family was also wealthy in the area. The builder David Gilly had ten two-family houses and 24 hop grower's houses built. The inheritance documents of the first settlers date from 1774. The first settlers were mixed, in addition to six Prussians there were five Mecklenburgers, four Electoral Saxons, three Swiss, one Polish and one Hungarian. In Ludwig Wilhelm Brüggemann's description of the Duchy of Vor and Hinter-Pommern (1784) Schöningen is listed among the villages of the Pyritz office .

In Heinrich Berghaus ' Landbuch des Duchy of Pomerania (1868) Schöningen was listed as one of the rural villages in the district of the Pyritz Domain Rent Office in the Pyritzer Kreis . At that time there were no more descendants of the first settler families mentioned above. At that time the village had 145 inhabitants in 21 houses. Back then, the children went to school in Werben , where Schöningen was also parish.

Before 1945 Schöningen formed a rural community in the Pyritz district of the Prussian province of Pomerania . In addition to Schöningen, the Pass was part of the rural community . In 1925 the community had 164 inhabitants in 35 households, in 1933 151 inhabitants and in 1939 only 128 inhabitants.

After the Second World War, Schöningen, like all of Western Pomerania, came to Poland. The village was given the Polish place name Grędziec , based on the name of the Slavic predecessor settlement of neighboring Werben, Grindiz . Today it forms its own Schulzenamt in Gmina Warnice (municipality of Warnitz) .
