Administrative history

In the post-medieval period, the Margraviate of Brandenburg was divided into circles . One of these historical circles was the Dramburgische Kreis or Kreis Dramburg , which formed one of the four so-called Hinterkreise in Neumark . As part of the Prussian administrative reforms after the Congress of Vienna , the Dramburg district moved from Neumark to the administrative district of Köslin in the province of Pomerania in 1816 . The district of Dramburg gave 20 villages to the Saatzig district and five villages to the Regenwalde district .

Since July 1, 1867, the district belonged to the North German Confederation and from January 1, 1871 to the German Empire . In 1871 the district included the three towns of Dramburg , Falkenburg and Kallies , 56 rural communities and 51 manor districts . On March 28, 1878, the rural communities of Alt Lobitz and Zadow and the Zadow estate were reclassified from the Dramburg district to the Deutsch Krone district in West Prussia .

On September 30, 1929, a regional reform took place in the Dramburg district in line with developments in the rest of Prussia, in which all independent manor districts except one were dissolved and assigned to neighboring rural communities. On October 1, 1932, the rural communities of Labenz, Nuthagen and Rützow were reclassified from the dissolved Schivelbein district to the Dramburg district.

On October 1st, 1938, the district of Dramburg was reclassified from the administrative district of Köslin to the administrative district of Grenzmark Posen-West Prussia , and on January 1st, 1939, the district of Dramburg was given the name of a district in accordance with the now unified regulation .

In the spring of 1945 the area of ​​the district was occupied by the Red Army . After the war ended, the district was placed under Polish administration by the Soviet occupying forces in the summer of 1945 . In the following years the German population from the district sold .

traffic

The district of Dramburg initially stayed away from the major railway lines. It was not until 1877 that it was opened up by the Ruhnow - Dramburg - Tempelburg line of the Pomeranian Central Railway Company ("111.j").

In 1888 the Prussian State Railroad ran a route from Deutsch Krone to the town of Kallies "115.a" in the south of the district. This station became the local hub when the line was extended to Stargard in 1895 and a branch to Arnswalde was given; in addition there was a connection between Kallies and Falkenburg (“116.b”) in 1900 , which continued to Bad Polzin from 1903 (“111.k”).

During the same period, two small railroad lines were built in the district. a. the district of Dramburg and the company Lenz & Co GmbH were involved:

In 1897 the narrow-gauge line of the Saatziger Kleinbahnen from Trampke reached Janikow, but it was not until 1910 that the district town ("113.j") reached it.

In the east of the district, Kleinbahn AG Virchow-Deutsch Kroner district border opened a standard-gauge line to the neighboring Deutsch Krone district in 1900 ("115.n").
