history

A Slavic rampart has been preserved in the place from prehistoric times .

The village was mentioned for the first time in a document from the years 1200/1208, with which the Dukes Bogislaw II and Casimir II of Pomerania confirmed its ownership to the Kolbatz monastery , including the village of Szasiua . Later, the monastery gave Duke Bogislaw II. Ownership of the village, but after the death of Duke Bogislaw II, the village was returned to the monastery by his son Duke Barnim I and his mother Miroslawa . In the corresponding document from 1223, the village was named Scossoua . This document also shows that it was originally a nobleman named Slavebor who donated the village to the monastery. In 1236 the village came from the Kolbatz monastery to the diocese of Cammin . This was part of a larger transaction between the Kolbatz Monastery and Bishop Konrad III. von Cammin, in which the bishop in turn transferred the tithe to the monastery in all possessions belonging to the monastery and renounced his rights to the village of Broda . The village of Klein Küssow was the old Slavic settlement, while Groß Küssow to the south was the later German settlement.

Klein Küssow was an old fiefdom of the noble family von Küssow , which was first mentioned in 1336 with a Nicolaus Küssow. The family was one of the so-called castle-seated families because of their “castles” here in Klein Küssow and in Megow . Klein Küssow, like the neighboring Verchland and Kunow estates on the road on the Megow-Klein Küssow line, belonged to the von Küssow family. This line died out in the male line with Jochen Friedrich Graf von Küssow in 1777. Like Verchland and Kunow an der Straße, Klein Küssow came to his daughter Friederike Gottliebe, a married woman from Zastrow . The estates were allodified in 1780 .

In Ludwig Wilhelm Brüggemann's detailed description of the current state of the Royal Prussian Duchy of Western and Western Pomerania (1784), Klein-Küssow was listed among the noble estates of the Pyritz district. In Klein Küssow at that time there was a Vorwerk , that is the farm, a brick factory, a windmill, five cottages and a schoolmaster, a total of 17 households (“fire places”). In addition, the church was named, the branch church of the church of Groß Küssow.

In 1820 Klein Küssow, like the neighboring Verchland, was bought by the Privy Councilor Ludwig Geibler (later raised to the nobility as Ludwig von Geibler). When the landlord and peasant conditions were regulated (see: Prussian Agrarian Constitution ) in Klein Küssow, the four Kossäthöfe that were still in existence at that time were relocated to a new settlement, which was named Ludwigsthal after the secret councilor Ludwig Geibler. The only existing farm in Verchland was also relocated to Ludwigsthal. After Ludwig von Geibler's death, his son Theodor von Geibler inherited Klein Küssow, while Verchland passed on to his daughter. Thus the connection between Klein Küssow and Verchland was canceled for the first time in centuries.

Around 1860 Klein Küssow had 112 inhabitants. In 1910 the Klein Küssow manor district had 107 inhabitants.

Klein Küssow was later incorporated into the rural community of Schlötenitz . Until 1945, Klein Küssow was part of the municipality of Schlötenitz in the Pyritz district of the Prussian province of Pomerania .

After the Second World War , Klein Küssow, like all of Western Pomerania, came to Poland. It received the Polish place name Koszewko .
