Palzwitz intended to Stemmnitz (Polish today: Staniewice) in 1280 for Norbertine - nunnery in Stolp have heard (Słupsk). Afterwards it was owned by Jertslaw , also Jaroslaus , who called himself von Palsewische . He is said to have largely descended from the Zitzewitz family.

Palzwitz has always belonged to the Rügenwalder office and was run as a ducal Vorwerk , the size of which was given as 1241 acres . In 1784 there were two more cottages in addition to the Vorwerk . Later the ducal estate became a royal domain, then a state domain .

In 1823 the Taucher family is the tenant of the estate. During this time 99 inhabitants were registered, the number of which rose to 192 by 1905 and was 156 in 1939.

Before 1945 Palzwitz was the seat of a central registry office, but belonged to the district court area of Rügenwalde .

Towards the end of the Second World War , Soviet troops reached the place on March 6, 1945 . The population was evacuated to Deutsch Puddiger (Podgórki). When we returned to Pentecost after seven weeks, all the houses had been looted and many cattle had perished. The village was administered by a Soviet command post for five years. No evictions took place during this time. After that, the village was placed under Polish administration. Palzwitz was renamed Palczewice . The Poles confiscated the farmland, and the Drosedow domain was again added to Palzwitz. The population was not allowed to leave Palzwitz and was forced to work on the sovkhoz . Resettlement was only possible from 1956 onwards, when families were reunited. The last German mayor was Fritz Taucher . He was abducted on March 15, 1945 and died three and a half months later.

Today Palzwitz as Palczewice is part of the Gmina Darłowo in the Powiat Sławieński of the West Pomeranian Voivodeship. About 100 people now live here.
