There was a wind and motor mill, a blacksmith's shop, a carpentry shop, a master bricklayer, a shoemaker and a grocery store on site. The main focus of employment was agriculture. Potatoes , beetroot , fodder beet , rye , oats , barley and wheat were grown in the fields . Pig breeding and fattening as well as cattle husbandry (black and colored cattle) provided additional income. The fattening pigs were bought by the Rügenwalder Wurstfabrik, and milk was delivered to the cooperative dairy in Alt Järshagen.

history

The rural community of Neu Kugelwitz, like the rural community of Alt Kugelwitz, emerged from the former Kugelwitz domain belonging to the ducal office of Rügenwalde when it was parceled out at the beginning of the 19th century as part of the Stein-Hardenberg agricultural reforms . In a document in 1347 in which the Pomeranian dukes Bogislaw, Barnim and Wartislaw of the town of Schlawe confirmed their rights , a matze van Kugelwytze ryddere was named. This knight von Kugelwitz could be a member of the family v. Sanitz , because according to other documents, the Carthusian monks of the Marienkron monastery near Rügenwalde bought Klein-Kugelwitz from this family between 1407 and 1495, today's Alt Kugelwitz. When Mayor Sluter donated part of Karzin to the abbey, the monks bought from family v. Sanitz added a second part. After the Reformation , this regional monastic property, which according to the count at that time had a size of 669 acres and 4 rods, fell to the Rügenwalder Amt as a "ritterfreye" domain. After parcelling in the early 19th century, the Restgut by Karl Ludwig Krause was acquired, one originating from Old Schlawe leaseholders, who previously belonging to Zillmitz Prussian state domain Dorsedow (1822 to 1824) and a domain in Krolow had leased and the Court vogt had been in Krolow. Until 1945 the farm remained in the hands of his descendants (one after the other Wilhelm, Otto and Ewald Krause).

On March 7, 1945, Soviet troops marched through the place they occupied on March 14, 1945. Months later, the place - like all of Western Pomerania - was placed under Polish administration. The expulsion of the German residents began. Neu Kugelwitz was renamed Kowalewiczki .
