Międzywodzie (German Heidebrink ) is a village and seaside resort with extensive beaches in the powiat Kamieński of the Polish West Pomeranian Voivodeship on the Baltic Sea with its seat in the urban and rural municipality Dziwnów (Dievenow). Heidebrink is one of the most famous holiday resorts on the Baltic Sea in Poland.

Geographical location

The village in Western Pomerania is located in the eastern part of the island of Wolin on a peninsula called Stut-Wiese (Miedzywodzkie) between the Baltic Sea and the Camminer Bodden - hence the Polish name Międzywodzie (between two waters). It is on the road No. 102 Mistroy (Międzyzdroje) - Kolberg (Kołobrzeg) between Kolzow (Kołczew) (7 km) and Dievenow (Dziwnów) (3 km). About 1 km west of Heidebrink in a westerly direction, the road branches off to Wollin.

history

Until 1945, Heidebrink belonged to the administrative district of Stettin in the Pomeranian province and to the administrative district of Usedom-Wollin . Until then, the thoroughfare was called Chaussee Straße. From Chaussee Strasse, at the Hotel zur Post, Bötticherstrasse turned south to the Camminer Bodden, which also led past the fire brigade. At the end of this street there was a landing stage for small ships. Cammin is easy to see across the water. There was a boat connection to Cammin. The school was at the end of the village in the direction of Kolzow on Chaussee Straße. Behind it began the state forest in which several bunkers have been used as weapons depots since 1939. A path led past the school to the beach with the large dunes. From Chaussee Strasse, Strandstrasse, Badstrasse and Heideweg also led to the dunes and the Baltic Sea beach. To the north of Chaussee Strasse ran parallel to the Parkstrasse, which connected Strandstrasse with Badstrasse and at each end of which there was a park, Waldstrasse, which connected Strandstrasse with Heideweg and continued into the Camminer Forest, and Dünenstrasse, which also connected the beach road with the Heideweg.

In 1784, Heidebrink consisted of two fishermen's cottages, whose inhabitants were parish in Kolzow in the Wollin Synod. It was fished in the Baltic Sea as well as in the Camminer Bodden. The rent was to be paid to the Wollin office.

Eighty years later, in 1865, Heidebrink belonged to the parish Fritzow, Kaminer Synod. It was in the Usedom-Wolin district and belonged to the town of Kamin. Now there are 10 fishermen's apartments with 4 outbuildings and 59 residents. The children went to school in West Diwenow. There were no roads to the next inland villages, Lauen and Schwantuss. Heidebrink and West-Diwenow could only be reached by water. Since Fritzow and his church are on the other side of the Diwenow River, the population always had to cross over by boat to get to the church.

Towards the end of the Second World War , the Red Army had advanced rapidly on March 4th and 5th, 1945, coming from the south-east, towards the Stettiner Haff , Dievenow and Oder , but had to stop there for nine weeks.

The fighting on the Dievenow peninsula continued until the beginning of May. During this time, the region from the island of Wollin and the Baltic Sea was under constant German artillery fire. When Cammin caught fire in the night of March 5th to 6th, 1945, this was the signal for many Heidebrinker to leave the place at dawn towards Swinoujscie.

After the end of the war, Heidebrink became part of Poland along with the whole of Western Pomerania . The German seaside resort and fishing village of Heidebrink was given the Polish name Międzywodzie .
