Obłęże (German Woblanse ) is a village in the powiat Słupski ( Stolp district ) in the Polish Pomeranian Voivodeship . It belongs to the rural municipality of Kępice (hammer mill).

history
The former manor Woblanse was one of the oldest fiefdoms of the Massow family , who had an ancestral home here. In the 18th century, the Massows on Woblanse are named among those families who used their investment income to provide talented students with a scholarship to attend an academy or an academic high school. In 1925 Woblanse had a total of 50 houses, 122 households and 556 inhabitants were counted. Until 1945 the village belonged to the district of Rummelsburg in the administrative district of Köslin in the province of Pomerania . The Woblanser sheep farm also belonged to the municipality of Woblanse . The community area was 16.9 km².
Towards the end of the Second World War , the inhabitants fled on March 5, 1945, initially from the approaching Soviet army . However, the trek was overrun by the Red Army in Great Guard and had to turn back. There were attacks against the villagers. Woblanse himself was on 6./7. March 1945 was taken by the Soviet Army without any significant fighting. When they returned to their village, the population was again subjected to attacks. After 1945 Woblanse was placed under Polish administration together with the whole of Western Pomerania. A Polish administrative office was only set up in the village in the early summer of 1946. The Soviet Army kept the estate in possession until 1957. The Polish administration brought a certain improvement in living conditions for the inhabitants; the Polish head of office is described as "relatively humane". The Polish authorities expelled the German population from the village by the end of 1947, with the exception of three or four families who were later evacuated.
Woblanse received the Polish name Obłęże . In 2008 there were 322 inhabitants in the village.
