history
In the local literature, the mention of a village Celakow in a document of the Pomeranian Duke Barnim I from 1240 is related to Hohenselchow. According to the editor of the Pomeranian Document Book , Celakow meant the village of Züllchow north of Stettin .
The first recorded mention of the village comes from the year 1259, when a pleban Roleco appeared as a documentary witness in Selcho . From Seleschow or Selychow (1309) the place name changed to Hohen-Sellischow and later Hohen-Selchow by the end of the 16th century .
The village church still has intact bells from 1671 and 1734. Both the church and the entire village were affected during the Thirty Years' War . At first the abandoned village had become largely desolate until 1680, when Captain Boislacv began to rebuild it. In 1847 a teacher started school lessons in Hohenselchow, after a school building with two classrooms and two apartments had already been built a few years earlier.
Until 1939, Hohenselchow was a municipality in the Randow district in the Prussian province of Pomerania , in 1871 it had 993 inhabitants, in 1933 903 inhabitants and in 1939 only 825 inhabitants. When the Randow district was dissolved in 1939, Hohenselchow joined the Greifenhagen district .
After the Second World War, Hohenselchow was in the Soviet Zone and later in the GDR . 60% of Hohenselchow fell victim to World War II ; the church tower almost collapsed. This was finally put down in 1949 with the help of tractors. In the mid-1990s, a new wooden tower was erected, which now again, visible from afar, shapes the silhouette of the village.
The first type III LPGs were built in 1951. At the turn of 1960/61, a new school and kindergarten enriched the educational offer. The old schoolhouse from 1841 was demolished and a new gymnasium was built instead.
On October 26, 2003, Hohenselchow and Groß Pinnow merged to form the new municipality of Hohenselchow-Groß Pinnow.
