According to the historical shape of the village, Jerskewitz was a small alley village .

It was once subdivided into the Jerskewitz A, B, C and D goods. Jerskewitz A, C and D were old Puttkamer fiefdoms, Jerskewitz B was an old Zitzewitz fiefdom.

In 1702 Christoph Gebhard von Hoym sold Jerskewitz A to Hans von Puttkammer , which later passed on to his son Nicolaus Heinrich von Puttkammer . After his death the captain acquired in 1761 Michael Stanislaus of Zeromski (a grandson of Hans von Puttkamer ), the Gut Jerskewitz A. Other goods came into the possession of Zeromski : 1775 Jerskewitz D by Johann Wilhelm von Puttkamer and 1780 Jerskewitz C by Lieutenant August Christian Ludwig by Puttkamer .

In 1740 the captain Joachim Friedrich von Zitzewitz sold Jerskewitz B to Franz Georg von Puttkammer , which passed to his son, Lieutenant Otto Wilhelm von Puttkammer in 1766 and to his brother, Lieutenant Johann Christian Ernst von Puttkammer in 1775 .

Around 1784 there were two farms in Jerskewitz , nine farmers, two cottages , a schoolmaster and the Neu-Zeromin colony with a total of 29 fireplaces.

The Jerskewitz estate remained in the possession of the von Zeromski family for three more generations :

  1. Captain Casimir von Zeromski
  2. Julius Caesar Gerhard von Zeromski
  3. Carl Heinrich von Zeromski (* 1836; † 1878).

The latter took over the succession for the Jerskewitz and Zeromin estate, which at that time was worth 46,285 thalers . In 1867 he had the castle rebuilt in its original condition (see picture).

The subsequent owners of Jerskewitz were von Gostkowski in Stolp (1884), Rittmeister von Natzmer (1893), district administrator a. D. Carl Oldwig von Natzmer (1924) and Leo von Zelewski (1938).

The 1560 hectare complex, consisting of the three manors Jerskewitz, Charlottenhof and Zeromin (Polish: Ceromin), had 800 hectares of arable land and 650 hectares of forest. The area of ​​the municipality Jerskewitz in 1939 totaled 1603 hectares.

In 1910 a total of 328 inhabitants lived in Jerskewitz. Their number rose to 355 by 1933 and in 1939 was still 319 (69 households).

Former castle in Jerzkowice

Until 1945 there were four districts in the municipality of Jerskewitz:

  • Jerskewitz railway station
  • Charlottenhof
  • Jerskewitz
  • Zeromin

It was incorporated into the administrative and civil registry district Schwarz Damerkow (Czarna Dąbrówka) and the district court area Bütow (Bytów) and was located in the district of Stolp in the administrative district of Köslin in the Prussian province of Pomerania .

Towards the end of the Second World War , Jerskewitz was evacuated in March 1945 by order of the fighting German troops. The trek passed via Groß Rakitt (Rokity) and Lauenburg in Pomerania (Lębork) and dissolved east of Neustadt in West Prussia (Wejherowo). Some were able to flee via Gotenhafen (Gdynia), the others returned to their home village, which had been occupied by Soviet troops on March 8, 1945. Jerskewitz became Polish and renamed Jerzkowice . The villagers were expelled , most recently on November 9, 1946 and July 3, 1947.

Later, in Germany 144 and in the GDR 79 expelled from Jerskewitz villagers determined.

Around 300 people live here today. The village is the seat of a Schulzenamt in Gmina Czarna Dąbrówka in Powiat Bytowski in the Pomeranian Voivodeship (1975 to 1998 Slupsk Voivodeship ). The former castle is now in a very dilapidated condition; it is inhabited by eight Polish families.

church

Until 1945 the population of Jerskewitz was almost without exception Protestant denomination. The village was parish in the parish of Groß Nossin (now in Polish: Nożyno) in the church district of Bütow in the church province of Pomerania of the Church of the Old Prussian Union . The last German clergyman was Pastor Winfried Behling .

Since 1945 mainly Catholic residents have lived in Jerzkowice. It is now part of the parish Czarna Dąbrówka ( Schwarz Damerkow ) and belongs to the deanery Łupawa ( Lupow ) in the diocese of Pelplin of the Catholic Church in Poland . On the evangelical side, Jerzkowice is incorporated into the Kreuzkirche parish in Słupsk ( Stolp ) in the diocese of Pomerania-Greater Poland of the Evangelical-Augsburg Church in Poland .

school

As early as 1784, a schoolmaster was mentioned in Jerskewitz. In 1932, the primary school here was single-stage. One teacher taught 58 school children.

traffic

A side street runs through Jerzkowice, which connects Czarna Dąbrówka ( Schwarz Damerkow ) on the provincial roads 211 and 212 (here part of the former Reichsstraße 158 ) with Pomysk Mały ( Klein Pomeiske ) on the voivodship road 228 near the district town of Bytów ( Bütow ).

There is no longer a rail link today. Until 1945 Jerskewitz was itself a train station on the then closed and partially dismantled railway line Lauenburg – Bütow (Lębork – Bytów).
