Geographical location

Pałowo is located on the northeastern edge of the West Pomeranian Voivodeship and twelve kilometers from the district town of Sławno . The place can be reached via a side road that branches off at Sycewice ( Zitzewitz ) on the Polish state road 6 (former German Reichsstraße 2 , today also European road 28 ) and meets the road Sławno - Postomino at Tyń ( Thyn ). The only station today is Sycewice on the Stargard Szczeciński – Gdańsk railway , after the former Schlawe – Stolpmünde railway line with the Stemnitz ( Staniewice ) railway station was dismantled in 1945.

Pałowo lies in a flat hilly landscape at an altitude of about 30 meters above sea level. The meadow valley of the Moszczeniczka ( Motz ), which flows from Gać ( Gatz ) through Pieszcz ( Peest ) and flows into the Wieprza ( Wipper ) at Tyń , limits the area to the north.

Neighboring towns are: in the west Nosalin ( Nitzlin ), in the north Pieszcz, in the east Gać (already in the Pomeranian Voivodeship ), and in the south Pałówko ( Neu Paalow ) and Wrześnica ( Freetz ).

Place name

Since ancient times Palow , then called Paalow , the name Old Paalow was only introduced in the middle of the 19th century, when the goods and facilities of New Paalow (Pałówko) were dissolved.

history

In an original feud letter in 1456, as borgere unde inwanere to slave u. a. Called Jacob Palowe . From 1466, Paalow was owned by the von Below family . When Captain Hanns Caspar von Krockow married in 1637, two thirds of von Below 's fiefdom fell to the Krockow s.

1784 belonged to Paalow A ( von Below ) 1 Vorwerk with two thirds of the area, 3 farmers and 1 Kossät , to Paalow B ( von Krockow ) a third of the area, 3 farmers, 1 Kossät and 1 wood-keeper's cottage.

Around 1800 a woman from Below, born von Wussow, bought all of Paalow, but had to sell it to the Prussian state in 1829 . This settled the goods and put on the village of New Paalow (Pałówko).

In 1818 there were 217 inhabitants in Paalow. Their number rose to 315 by 1895 and was 262 in 1939.

Until 1945, Alt Paalow belonged to Neu Paalow, Nitzlin (Nosalin), Peest (Pieszcz) and Stemnitz (Staniewice) to the district of Peest and - without Stemnitz - also to the registry office district of Peest, as well as to the district court area of Schlawe. It is located in the district of Schlawe i. Pom. in the administrative district of Köslin in the Prussian province of Pomerania .

On March 8, 1945, the Red Army occupied the village, which was already full of refugees from East Prussia . As a result of the Second World War , Alt Paalow became Polish and as Pałowo is now a district of Gmina Postomino in the powiat Sławieński in the West Pomeranian Voivodeship (until 1998 Slupsk Voivodeship ).
