Kępiny (German Neumühlenkamp ) is a village in the Polish West Pomeranian Voivodeship and belongs to the urban and rural municipality Polanów ( Pollnow ) in the Powiat Koszaliński ( Köslin ).

Geographical location

Kępiny is located 12 kilometers south of Polanów and 11 kilometers north of Bobolice ( Bublitz ) on the 205 voivodeship road . Until 1945 there was a rail connection for goods traffic in Breitenberg (now Polish: Gołogóra) on the small railway line of the Schlawer Bahnen . Neighboring towns of Kępiny are Żydowo ( Sydow ) in the north, Gołogóra in the east, Drzewiany ( Drawehn ) in the south and Stare Borne ( Hohenborn ) and Górawino ( Gerfin ) in the west.

Kępiny lies on a sloping ground moraine at a height of 127 meters above sea level, not far from the 158 meter high formerly called Schlossberg .

history

Today's Kępiny emerged in the 19th century as a settlement from a hamlet of four Kossatenhöfe at a water mill . The mill pond was fed with spring water from the castle hill through the castle moat and the gorge of the Kaminsee (Jezioro Kamienne) over several small ponds. The wastewater flowed in a wide stream into the Lower Lake (Jezioro Kwiecko).

The mill is a former lease mill belonging to the former fiefdom of Sydow, which has been owned by the Hasse family since 1868 . The last miller before 1945 was son-in-law Paul Krüger. At last the small village had 13 farms.

Already after the First World War the area was discovered by the Kösliner Gliding Sports Club as very suitable for this sport. A hall for storing aircraft was built on the mill site. Student accommodation was also built. In 1940/41 a new hall and building were built for accommodation and training purposes. The Second World War, however, interrupted the lively sporting activities of the glider piloting school, and in 1944 East Prussian refugees were housed here.

Before 1945 Neumühlenkamp was a district of the municipality of Sydow (Żydowo) in the official and registry office district of the same name and in the district court area of Pollnow . At that time the place belonged to the district of Schlawe i. Pom. in the administrative district of Köslin in the Prussian province of Pomerania .

After 1945 Neumühlenkamp came under Polish administration as Kępiny. The place became part of the urban and rural municipality Polanów in the powiat Koszaliński of the West Pomeranian Voivodeship (until 1998 Köslin Voivodeship ).

church

Until 1945 Neumühlenkamp with its almost exclusively Protestant residents was part of the parish of Sydow in the parish of the same name . It belonged to the Bublitz church district in the church of the Old Prussian Union . The last German clergyman was Pastor Peter Bultmann.

After 1945, Kępiny became part of the parish Żydowo in the Deanery Polanów in the Diocese of Köslin-Kolberg of the Catholic Church in Poland . Evangelical church members belong to the rectory in Koszalin ( Köslin ) in the diocese of Pomerania-Greater Poland of the Evangelical-Augsburg Church in Poland , which looks after the branch church in Wołcza Wielka ( Groß Volz ).
