Lesiaki ( German Lessaken ) is a village in the Polish Pomeranian Voivodeship . It belongs to the municipality of Cewice ( Zewitz ) in the powiat Lęborski ( Lauenburg district in Pomerania ).

Geographical location

The village is located in Western Pomerania , about forty kilometers east-southeast of Stolp ( Słupsk ), in a wooded terminal moraine landscape not far from the Baltic Sea .

history

In 1686 the Gutsdorf, then called Lessaken, was a fief of the Lietzen family . After acquiring part of Lessaken, which consisted of a farm in Lessaken and a wooden cave in Swantee (today Święte in Polish), the Münchows bought a second one. Some parts were all modified in 1777 .

After several changes of ownership, all three parts came to Kaspar Friedrich von Massow together with the goods Kose ( Kozy ), Kosemühl ( Kozin ) and Klein Rakitt ( Rokitki ) . During this time Lessaken had two farmers, two half-farmers and a total of four fireplaces.

In 1804, Lessaken was owned by Nikolaus Leopold von Zitzewitz , and in 1860 Heinrich Wilke bought it . The subsequent owners of the approximately 424 hectare manor were then Leopold von den Osten (1884), Max Deinert (1910), Fritz Günther Strobell (1928), and in 1938 still the Strobell family .

At the beginning of the 1930s, the district of Lessaken was 7.3 km 2 in size. In 1945 there were four places of residence in the municipality of Lessaken:

  1. Old Lessaken
  2. Forest house Swantee / Schwansee
  3. Lessaken
  4. Swamtee (Polish Święte )

The community belonged to the official and registry office district Bochowke (Bochówko) in the district of Stolp in the administrative district of Köslin of the Prussian province of Pomerania .

Towards the end of the Second World War , Lessaken was occupied by the Red Army on March 9, 1945 . Soon afterwards the region was placed under Polish administration together with the whole of Western Pomerania . Lessaken received the Polish place name Lesiaki . In the following time the German inhabitants of Lessakens were expelled .

The place was assigned to the Schulzenamt Karwica ( Gerhardshöhe ) in the Gmina Cewice in the powiat Lęborski in the Pomeranian Voivodeship (1975 to 1998 Slupsk Voivodeship ).

Later, 26 villagers displaced from Lessaken in the Federal Republic of Germany and 28 in the GDR were identified.
