Kostroga (German Helenenhof ) is a small Kashubian settlement in the Polish Pomeranian Voivodeship , which belongs to the rural community of Czarna Dąbrówka ( Schwarz Damerkow ) in the Bytowski powiat ( Bütow district ).

Geographical location and transport links

Kostroga is located in Western Pomerania , about ten kilometers south-southwest of the city of Lębork ( Lauenburg in Pomerania ) and two kilometers east of the church village Kozin ( Kosemühl ) - only separated by the provincial road 212 (former German Reichsstrasse 158 ) and a former railway line. Until 1945 the place formerly called Helenenhof was a train station on the line from Lauenburg in Pomerania to Bütow ; after the end of the Second World War it was partially shut down and dismantled.

history

The village was originally a suburb of the Kosemühl ( Kozin ) community, which was later incorporated into Kose (now in Polish: Kozy), and its history is closely linked to Kosemühl and Kose. In 1818 there were 18 inhabitants in Helenenhof, but in 1871 there were already 53 out of six residential buildings. After the construction of the railway line, a distinction was made in 1905 between the towns of Helenenhof-Gut (62 residents, five residential buildings) and Helenenhof-Bahnhof (12 residents, two residential buildings).

As a village of Kosemühl and later of Kose, Helenenhof belonged to the district of Stolp in the administrative district of Köslin in the province of Pomerania until 1945 .

In the fall of 1945 a Polish manager was used in the neighboring Gliesnitz that (the village of Old and New Friedrichswalde Friedrichswalde that goods Gliesnitz, Helenenhof, Hohenlinde and Friedrichswalde Wutzkow should belonging, southwest of the village center Wutzkow located districts) farming. The villagers were subsequently driven out . Helenenhof was renamed Kostroga .

The village is now part of the Gmina Czarna Dąbrówka , but now affiliated to the Powiat Bytowski ( Bütow district ).

church

Ecclesiastically, Helenenhof, with its predominantly Protestant population, was integrated into the parish Mickrow (today in Polish: Mikorowo), which belonged to the church district of Stolp-Altstadt in the church province of Pomerania of the Church of the Old Prussian Union . After 1945 Kostroga came to the - now Catholic - parish Mikorowo ( Mickrow ) in the deanery Łupawa ( Lupow ) in the diocese of Pelplin of the Catholic Church in Poland . Protestant church members living here are parish in the Kreuzkirche parish in Słupsk ( Stolp ) in the diocese of Pomerania-Greater Poland of the Evangelical-Augsburg Church in Poland - with the branch church in Lębork ( Lauenburg in Pomerania ).
