history

Just like the neighboring towns of Schönfeld (Polish: Żeńsko ) and Schwachenwalde (Chłopowo), Kranzin already existed around 1300. The village was part of a manor . The von Hagen family owned this property in 1319, and the Buschmühle is mentioned here in 1337 . In the 18th century, the village was owned by the von Rohwedel family , and around 1858 by the Glahn family.

Until 1945 the village belonged to the district of Arnswalde , from 1816 to 1939 to the administrative district of Frankfurt in the Prussian province of Brandenburg , from 1939 to 1945 in the administrative district of Grenzmark Posen-West Prussia in the province of Pomerania . With the communities of Augustwalde (Polish: Rębusz ), Hitzdorf ( Objezierze ), Schwachenwalde ( Chłopowo ) and Sophienhof ( Przybysław ), Kranzin formed the administrative district of Schwachenwalde in the Arnswalde (Choszczno) district court .

Towards the end of the Second World War , the region was occupied by the Red Army in the spring of 1945 . Soon after, Kranzin was placed under Polish administration. In the period that followed, the villagers were driven out . Kranzin received the name Krzęcin .

Kranzin was incorporated into the powiat Choszczeński of the West Pomeranian Voivodeship (until 1998 Gorzów Voivodeship ).
