history

The history of the village of Kołbacz is naturally closely linked to the history of the Kolbatz Monastery . In 1173, Wartislaw Swantiboricz , castellan of Stettin , founded the Cistercian abbey " Mera Vallis " in the Madanzig Forest. A year later, a convent of twelve monks and twelve lay brothers moved into Kolbatz under Abbot Reinhold from Esrom Monastery on Zealand . In 1535 the monastery became a ducal domain, and the monastery buildings themselves were set up as hunting lodges by the dukes in the 16th century. The monastery church became the parish church of the village.

From 1637 to 1673 Kolbatz was part of Swedish Pomerania . After the Swedish era, war counselor Sydow was general tenant of Kolbatz. In 1811 the district councilor Gaede bought it and in 1816 the secret councilor Friedrich Wilhelm Krause became the owner. The state then bought back Kolbatz and the domain was leased.

Until 1945 Kolbatz formed a municipality in the district of Greifenhagen in the Prussian province of Pomerania . Besides Kolbatz, there were no named places to live in the community. The municipality Kolbatz formed with communities Heidchen , Hofdamm , Neumark and Seelow the District Kolbatz . While the registry office was located in Kolbatz itself, the tax office and district court were located in the district town of Greifenhagen .

In 1925 there were 543 residents registered in Kolbatz, in 1939 there were 364.

In 1945 Kolbatz came under Polish administration and was named Kołbacz. The non-refugee German-speaking population was expelled and replaced by Polish new settlers. Kołbacz is now part of the Gmina Stare Czarnowo in the Gryfiński powiat in the West Pomeranian Voivodeship (1975 to 1998 Szczecin Voivodeship ). The population rose to 440 by 1970 and is today 1,400.

Church / parish

The St. Marien-Klosterkirche has been the parish church of the village since the Reformation . The population was predominantly Protestant until 1945 . Kolbatz was the "United Mother Congregation" in Neumark (now Polish: Stare Czarnowo), where the parish office was located. The parish of Neumark also belonged to the parish Dobberphul (Dobropole Gryfińskie), and for a long time Seelow (Żelewo).

In 1940 the Kolbatz parish had 770 parishioners from 2060 in the entire parish. It was part of the Kolbatz church district (last seat in Neumark) in the western district of the church province of Pomerania of the Church of the Old Prussian Union . The last German clergyman was Pastor Emil Priewe , who also held the office of superintendent .

Since 1945, the vast majority of the population of Kołbacz has been Catholic . The parish church, which had been an evangelical church for more than 400 years, was rededicated on October 20, 1945 and has since been called " Kościół pw. Najświętszego Serca Pana Jezusa ". Filial churches are Dębina ( Hofdamm ) and Żelewo ( Seelow ). Protestant church members living here today belong to the parish of the St. Trinity Church in Stettin in the diocese of Breslau of the Polish Evangelical-Augsburg Church .

Church district / deanery

The Protestant church district Kolbatz which existed until 1945, included about the area of the former monastery villages both in the district Greifenhagen and in the district of Pomerania .
