Geographical location

history

Kuleszewo (formerly Culsow , other forms of name: Kullesow , Kollezew , Kullitzow ) was a manor that was owned by the Boehn family from the 15th century until 1945 . It was the oldest ancestral home of the Boehn family. Until the end of the 14th century the fiefdom belonged to the lands of the Kulyke family, who are counted among the ancestors of the Pomeranian family Zitzewitz . 1393 Laurenz Koske von Culsow is mentioned and on June 13th 1397 Derseke Cusseke von Culsow . The Boehn family came to Western Pomerania in the wake of the Pomeranian Duke Wartislaw IV and probably came into the possession of Kulsow around 1402. In 1525 Jürgen Boehn was on Kulsow. In the 15th century, Kulsow consisted of two parts, A and B. Kulsow B was revocably pledged to Hans Georg von Below in 1678 for 7,000 guilders . Gerson Christian von Boehn inherited Kulsow A from his father, Franz Felix von Boehn, and redeemed Kulsow B from the heirs of Felix Otto von Below, so that the entire property was reunited in one hand. In 1872 the former allodial property was converted into freely available property of the Boehn family. Around 1784 there was a Vorwerk in Kulsow, a watermill that was powered by the Quacke river flowing east of the village , nine full farmers , two half-farmers , four Kossäts , a blacksmith, a schoolmaster, on the field of the village the Friedrichshof Vorwerk along with a Kossaten , on the field of Wendisch Plassow the Vorwerk Mittelburg and a total of 38 households.

Alexander von Boehn (1813-1889) had four sons, all of whom were resident in the district: Constantin von Boehn on Kulosw, Nikolaus von Boehn on Sagerke, Georg von Boehn on Lojow and Gesorke and Siegfried von Boehn in German Buckow. Constantin von Boehn built a distillery for industrial spirits and modernized the manor house. On July 1, 1914, he handed the estate over to his son Georg (1886–1946). The latter turned out to be an able farmer; he published several articles in the newspaper for agriculture . He was considered critical of the system and was arrested after the assassination attempt on July 20, 1944 and held in Stolper Prison for three months without giving any reason.

In 1925 there were 61 residential buildings in Kulsow. In 1939 there were 99 households and 457 inhabitants.

Before 1945 the village of Kulsow was the seat of the district of Kulsow in the district of Stolp , administrative district of Köslin in the Pomeranian province . In 1939 the parish area was 1,239 hectares. The municipality of Kulsow had a total of four places of residence:

  • Friedrichshof
  • Georgenthal
  • Kulsow
  • Kulsower Mill

Besides the estate, there were 29 farms in Kulsow.

Towards the end of the Second World War , Kulsow was occupied by the Red Army on March 7, 1945 . The distillery had previously been blown up by members of the Wehrmacht. The village was affected by acts of war and several farms burned down. The village population suffered badly under the Soviet occupation. The residents tried to flee, but their trek was run over and scattered and they had to return. After the Soviet troops gave up the village, Poles occupied the farms in early 1946. Kulsow was renamed Kuleszewo . The previous owners had to work for the Poles until they were expelled in 1947 ; they were only allowed to take with them what they could carry.

After the end of the war, 177 villagers displaced from Kulsow in the Federal Republic of Germany and 101 in the GDR were identified.

Today the village has about 460 inhabitants.

school

Before 1945, Kulsow had a two-tier elementary school. In 1932 a single teacher taught 74 school children in two classes.

church

The village population present before 1945 was Protestant . In the period 1590-1945 Kulsow belonged to the parish Zirchow and thus to the parish of Stolp-Stadt.
