The village of Liepe was first mentioned in a document on May 22, 1354. Liepe belonged to the Duchy of Pomerania . In 1631 there were twelve farmhouses and two cottages in Liepe . The place was completely destroyed in the Thirty Years War in 1637. After the Peace of Westphalia, Liepe came under Swedish rule. At the time, twelve peasant people lived here. In 1664 the church was built. It is made of wood and has a bell tower with two bells.

In 1695 Liepe was separated into Groß Lype and Klein Lype. Klein Lype was later called Mausewinkel or Mausesort. It is not known where the name comes from, nor are the names of Swedish settlers. After the Treaty of Stockholm in 1720, Swedish Pomerania was occupied by the Prussian army and the area south of the Peene was placed under Prussian administration. The place became part of the Prussian province of Pomerania . In 1779 the village of Liepe had 8 farmers, 10 Bünder and a schoolhouse.

School from 1907 with an integrated chapel.

The church from 1664 was demolished due to its poor structural condition, the belfry has been preserved to this day. In 1907 the school was rebuilt. The teacher was also a sexton and lived in the building. When the church was demolished, part of the school was converted into a prayer room.

At the end of the Second World War , many displaced people found shelter in Liepe. In 1946 the place had about 290 inhabitants.
