history

Kuntzow manor house 2004

Kuntzow was mentioned in a document with its current name in 1406. The place name Kuntzow is probably due to the Slavic word kuniza - marten , it was a Slavic settlement.

According to the records of the Swedish Land Registry of Western Pomerania , Kuntzow was in the middle ages in the feudal possession of a noble family Draken . After their extinction, the fief fell back to the Pomeranian ducal house . From 1582 there are documents in which the Chamber Councilor Melchior Normann was enfeoffed by Duke Ernst Ludwig von Pommern-Wolgast with the estate “in respect of his services rendered”. In 1670 the male line of the West Pomeranian branch of von Normann went out , the daughter Anna Sophia married the lieutenant Bogislav Adam von Heyden and received the estate until 1690. In that year it was pledged to Christian Corswandt, but this was not recognized. However, it was later given to the Corswandt family , and from 1702 it remained in their possession. The Corswandt's were ennobled by Emperor Leopold I in 1694 .

The size of the estate was stated on April 10, 1866 as follows: arable land 1364 acres , meadows 173 acres, pasture 76 acres, gardens 17 acres, woodland 221 acres, courtyard, paths and churchyard 73 acres, bleach and unland 1 acre, whole field marrow 1925 morning. On January 1st, 1865 there were 149 inhabitants in Kuntzow, including 20 families, 1 owner with 6 relatives, 6 administrators and assistants, 1 housekeeper, 11 servants and boys, 4 maids, day laborers - 11 male and 12 female, 1 craftsman, servants - 3 male and 2 female. On buildings: 1 church, 9 residential buildings, 12 farm buildings and 2 designated as factory buildings (a forge, a mill). The estate was owned by District Deputy Carl von Corswandt since 1823. In 1905 a post mill is also listed.

Kuntzow became notorious in the 1920s and 1930s because Walther von Corswant, the Pomeranian Gauleiter of the NSDAP, had his seat here. He founded the local groups of the party in the whole area, as well as the notorious SA-Sturm 77. Because of his sometimes extreme and deviating views, the Gauleitung was withdrawn from him, he became district administrator of the district of Greifswald . He fell in the war in 1943.

The Corswants have always managed the estate themselves. The last owner died in 1945, his son Walther died in the war, the other left the Soviet occupation zone with his mother . The graves of the Corswants are in the churchyard and there is also a burial place in the chapel . The classicist manor house from around 1812 stood empty for many years and was left to decay. The building is currently being restored by an investor from Bavaria.

On December 31, 2014, Kuntzow had 72 residents with a main residence and 4 with a secondary residence.

On December 31, 2015, Kuntzow had 77 residents with a main residence and 4 with a secondary residence.
