Under its former name Groß Jannewitz, the village used to be an old fiefdom of the Jannewitz family , who lived here until the middle of the 18th century. In 1516, Claus Jannewitz was enfeoffed by the Pomeranian Duke Bogislaw X. with his paternal villages, Groß and Klein Jannewitz. In 1528 the dukes Georg and Barnim confirmed this enfeoffment for the cousins Paul and Claus Jannewitz. In 1544, Duke Barnim gave Marcus Jannewitz a letter of fief over the villages of Groß and Klein Jannewitz. Since the second half of the 18th century, the Jannewitz family is no longer mentioned among the noble families residing in Pomerania, but it is in East Prussia . Around 1784 there was a massive stone manor house in the church village of Groß Jannewitz, an outbuilding, a watermill, a brickyard, a preacher, a sexton, ten cottages , an inn, a smithy, and a farm on the field of the village a sizable sheep farm and a total of 33 households. Owners of the village were at that time the brothers Martin and Heinrich August Alexander von Czapski , which it had inherited from her father, Theodore Henry George Czapski. In 1782 the village passed to a branch of the family from the east . Under this family, the estate was converted into a Fideikommiss .

The Groß Jannewitz estate remained in the possession of the von der Osten family until 1945. The last Fideikommiss owner was Rüdiger Graf von der Osten. His father, born in 1841, had replaced the manor house of the manor, which had become dilapidated, with a new building. One of the 109 patrimonial courts of the Lauenburg-Bütow district was located in Groß Jannewitz until the 19th century .

In 1925 there were 74 residential buildings in the community of Groß Jannewitz, and 1,017 inhabitants were counted, distributed over 173 households. The manor Groß Jannewitz comprised a total of over 20,000 acres with its large forests, extensive moor areas in the Lebatal and around 8,000 acres of arable land.

Until 1945 the community Groß Jannewitz belonged to the district of Lauenburg in the administrative district of Köslin in the province of Pomerania . The community area was 24.1 km² and housed a total of eight residential spaces:

Darzhkov
Gillmannshof
Gross Jannewitz
Barracks
Puggerschow
Rosgars
Sheep farm
Brick factory

The main place of residence was Groß Jannewitz.

When, towards the end of the Second World War, the Red Army reached the Baltic Sea near Köslin on March 1, 1945, there was no longer any way for the population of the Rummelsburg, Bütow, Schlawe, Stolp and Lauenburg districts to travel to the west by land. After the end of the war, Groß Jannewitz was placed under Polish administration together with all of Western Pomerania. The place was named Janowice.

Janowice today has about 400 inhabitants.

church

The majority of the population present in Groß Jannewitz before 1945 belonged to the Protestant denomination. In 1925, 986 Protestants (97%) and 31 Catholics (3%) were among the 1,017 inhabitants.

The church of Groß Jannewitz has been Protestant since the Reformation . In 1906 the father of the last landowner had another church built on the family's forestry business. During the first days of the Reformation until at least 1637, the Jannewitz family exercised patronage over the church of Groß Jannewitz.
