history

Wussow ( Wusow ) north of the city of Rummelsburg and west of the village of Varzin on a map from 1910.

The village of Wussow was an old property of the von Lettow family and the ecclesiastical center of the colonial area west of the Wipper ( Wieprza ). If the place once had 20 Hufen, 20 farmers and 1 Kossaten, the number decreased - mainly due to the Thirty Years War - to only 7 farms in 1685. In 1823 only 6 farmers are counted.

On March 28, 1878, the place was incorporated from the Schlawe district into the Rummelsburg district. In 1939 there were 822 inhabitants in Wussow.

Wussow railway station was from 1921 to 1945 (Wendisch) Puddiger (Podgóry) on the Reichsbahn line No. 111m Schivelbein (Świdwin) –Gramenz (Grzmiąca) –Zollbrück i. Pom. (Korzybie) . Today there is a rail connection via Kępice ( hammer mill ) on the railway line from Piła ( Schneidemühl ) to Ustka ( Stolpmünde ) .

Towards the end of the Second World War , Wussow was initially evacuated by the residents on March 3 and 4, 1945 in view of the approaching front. The Red Army occupied Wussow on March 5 and 6, 1945. The refugee treks in the village were overrun and disbanded by the Red Army on March 9, 1945. The Soviets abducted 13 men and 18 women and girls to Graudenz ( Grudziądz ), including 5 men and 5 women and girls further to the Soviet Union . The remaining refugee residents returned to the village.

In September 1945, Wussow was placed under Polish administration by the Soviets, together with the whole of Western Pomerania , with the exception of the farm, which remained under Soviet administration until the spring of 1951 and only then came under Polish administration. Wussow received the Polish name Osowo . In 1946 and 1957, the original population was expelled , with the exception of the Germans who worked on the estate. After the Soviet administration of the estate was over, they gradually moved to West Germany in the 1950s.

The village now forms part of the rural municipality of Kępice in the Powiat Słupski .

Parish Wussow

The parish of Wussow belonged to the church district Schlawe in the church province of Pomerania of the Evangelical Church of the Old Prussian Union until 1945 . The villages of Varzin (today: Warcino), Hammermühle (Kępice), Beßwitz (Biesowice), Techlipp (Ciecholub), Misdow (Mzdówo) and (Wendisch) Puddiger (Podgóry) were included. Efforts to separate the Techlipp and Plötzig (Plocko) chapels because of their remote location from Wussow were rejected by the Duke in 1595. In 1631 Plötzig came to Parochie Pritzig (Przytocko), and later Techlipp became an independent branch municipality of Wussow.

In 1913 Beßwitz was separated from Wussow and raised it to an independent parish , which was then also assigned to Techlipp as a subsidiary parish. The church patronage was held by Count von Bismarck-Varzin (only entitled to vote). In 1940 the parish Wussow counted 4,380 parishioners.

Today's Protestant residents in the area of ​​the former parish of Wussow belong to the diocese of Pomerania-Greater Poland with its seat in Sopot ( Sopot ) of the Evangelical-Augsburg Church in Poland . The responsible rectory is that of the Kreuzkirche in Słupsk ( Stolp ).
