Administrative history

After Western Pomerania fell to Brandenburg-Prussia in the 17th century , a district was created based on the aristocratic ownership. The possessions of the von Flemming family formed the core of the Flemming District , which comprised the city of Cammin, the areas of Groß Stepenitz and Gülzow , the royal offices of Stepenitz and Gülzow and a large number of noble villages and estates .

The villages of the Dompropstei Kucklow and the cathedral chapter of Cammin were incorporated into the Flemming District in 1811 after these two territories had been secularized.

As a result of the provincial authorities ordinance of April 30, 1815, the Flemming District became part of the administrative district of Stettin in the province of Pomerania . As a result of the district reform in the administrative district of Stettin on January 1, 1818, the district now known as the Cammin district was redesigned. Seven villages moved from the Flemming district to the Naugard district and thirteen villages to the Greifenberg district , including eight villages that had belonged to the Cammin cathedral chapter until 1811. At the same time, 69 villages from the Greifenberg district and three villages from the Usedom-Wollin district came to the Cammin district. The town of Cammin became the district town and seat of the district administration.

In 1871, the Cammin district included the city of Cammin, 116 rural parishes and 97 manor districts . Since July 1, 1867, it belonged to the North German Confederation and from January 1, 1871 to the German Empire . On September 30, 1929, a territorial reform took place in the district of Cammin, as in the rest of the Free State of Prussia , in which all independent manor districts except for two were dissolved and assigned to neighboring rural communities. In the 1930s, the district name in Cammin i. Pom. modified. On January 1, 1939, the district of Cammin i. Pom. according to the now imperial regulation the designation district .

In the spring of 1945 the district was occupied by the Red Army and in the summer of 1945 it was placed under Polish administration in accordance with the Potsdam Agreement . Most of the residents of the district were subsequently evicted by the local Polish administrative authorities .
