Former Manor in Kiełpin

Kiełpin ( German  Woltersdorf , also Waltersdorff , Kashubian Kiéłpën) is a village in the Polish Pomeranian Voivodeship and belongs to the rural community of Człuchów (Schlochau) in the powiat Człuchowski ( Schlochau district ).

Geographical location

Kiełpin is eight kilometers northeast of the city of Człuchów (Schlochau) , in the immediate vicinity of the Chojnice – Runowo Pomorskie (Konitz – Ruhnow) railway , which runs to the west.

history

The history of the village goes back to the year 1352. At that time the place appeared in the border description of the village Brzeźno ( German Briesen ). In 1355 settlement took place according to Kulmer law under the commandant Heinrich von Thaba . In 1380, the German Order awarded the village including the patronage of the church against interest to Jakob von Güntersberg , who was active in a diplomatic mission for the German Order. At the beginning of the 15th century, the place was mentioned in a settlement deed by Pollnitz , so its history as a manor village began. At the time of the Second Peace of Thorne in 1466, the village, which thus belonged to the Polish part of Prussia, was divided into two parts: Kiełpin A and Kiełpin B ( Kiełpinek or Hasseln). The place recovered only with difficulty from the aftermath of the Thirteen Years War . At the beginning of the 16th century, only 14 farmers were registered for the village. At the end of the century half of all farms were in desolation; only 26 farms were managed. During this time the Manteuffel family took over the ownership of the village with patronage, herding, hunting and fishing, among others on the Tietzsee ( Jezioro Wądzyńskie ). At the same time, the Protestant faith found its way into Kiełpin. The place name Kiełpin probably comes from the time when the family originally came from Kiełpino (Kölpin) in Pomerania. In 1650 Manteuffel-Kiełpiński was listed as the owner of Krzysztow, from the following centuries the owners of the manor village changed frequently. In 1772 Kiełpin became Prussian. At the beginning of the 19th century, the village had 19 families, when the estate and village of Woltersdorf were separated. In 1928 the estate districts of Woltersdorf and Hasseln merged again with the then rural community. After the Second World War , Woltersdorf was placed under Polish administration. The Poles called the place Kiełpin again . Today the place belongs to the Gmina Człuchów (rural community Schlochau ) in the powiat Człuchowski . The former estate is now owned by the state and is managed by the Babka von Gostomski family.
