Potęgowo ( German Pottangow , Kashubian Pòtãgòwò ) is the name of a village and the rural municipality of the same name in the Polish Pomeranian Voivodeship in the Powiat Słupski .
Geographical location
The former manor and farming village of Potęgowo is located in Western Pomerania , about 30 kilometers east of Słupsk ( Stolp ) between the Łupawa ( Lupow ) and the Łeba on the edge of a glacial valley, through which the Darżyńska Struga (Darsiner Bach) flows.
Landesstraße 6 (former German Reichsstraße 2 , now also Europastraße 28 ) runs from Stettin to Gdansk one kilometer south of the village . In the north of the village, the station is at the PKP - Route 202 from Gdansk to Stargard .
Place name
The place names Pottegow , Pottingowe , Pottenkow and Pottenkaw appear in old documents . In the pattern scroll from 1523 Peter Puttkamer is named tho Pottegaw .
Only thirty kilometers south-east in the Pomeranian Voivodeship is another place called Potęgowo , formerly in the Neustadt district (West Prussia) (German name Potengowo ( Linde municipality )).
history
The most important castle wall in the Stolp district was in Pottangow . It was located to the west of the village on a mountain ledge, on the valley crossed by the Darsin brook , which used to be a narrow lake basin. On the land side, a wall was raised, which the vernacular referred to as Schlotkenberg and Schwedenschanze .
Pottangow was originally a Vorwerk of Darsin (now Polish: Darżyno) and has largely shared its fate. In the family history of the von Puttkamer family , Darsin and Pottangow are defined as belonging to this family between 1428 and 1684/86. When they were sold to the Grumbkows , they became part of the Lupow (Łupawa) property complex .
With the goods complex of Lupow Pottangow came to the Bonins . It was not until the end of the 18th century that Pottangow was considered a separate estate. In 1827 Otto von Bonin inherited it along with other goods in the Stolp district . Since 1855 the Lupow estate with Darsin and Pottangow was Fideikommiß .
The last owners on Pottangow were Friedrich von Bonin († 1877) and Ernst von Bonin († 1931). Then the 415 hectare estate was settled. Karl zum Winkel took over the remaining goods .
Before 1945 Pottangow was a rural community within the administrative and civil registry district Grumbkow (Grąbkowo) in the district of Stolp in the administrative district of Köslin in the Prussian province of Pomerania . Pottangow formed its own gendarmerie district , but the district court was oriented towards Stolp . Until 1945, the localities of Pottangow-Bahnhof, Pottangow-Postamt and Pottangow-Siedlung belonged to the municipality of Pottangow.
In 1939, 647 people lived here in 170 households in 32 residential buildings.
Towards the end of World War II , Pottangow was occupied by Red Army troops on March 9, 1945 . Soon afterwards the place was placed under Polish administration together with the whole of Western Pomerania . Subsequently, the immigration of Polish civilians began in the village. Pottangow received the Polish place name Potęgowo . In the following time the old inhabitants of Pottangows were expelled .
Later, 423 local residents displaced from Pottangow were identified in the Federal Republic of Germany and 95 in the GDR .
Today's Potęgowo is part of the Gmina of the same name in the powiat Słupski in the Pomeranian Voivodeship (until 1998 Slupsk Voivodeship ). Today more than 1,400 people live here.
church
Before 1945, the village population of Pottangow was predominantly of Protestant denomination. In 1925 the place had 33 Catholic residents (12.7%). Pottangow was incorporated into the parish of Schurow (now in Polish: Skórowo), which also includes Bonkow (now defunct), Darsow (Darżewo), Groß Runow (Runowo), Karlshöhe (Chlewnica), Klein Gluschen (Głuszynko), Laaske (Laska ), Langeböse (Pogorzelice), Schidlitz, Schurow (Skórowo), Vangerske (1938–1945 Wiesenberg , today Węgierskie) and Zechlin (Żychlin) belonged.
The Parish Schurow, which in 1940 had a total of 3816 parishioners, was located in the church district of Stolp -Altstadt in the eastern district of the church province of Pomerania of the Church of the Old Prussian Union . The last German clergyman before 1945 was Pastor Heinz Suhr . Today Potęgowo lies in the catchment area of the Protestant parish of the Kreuzkirche in Słupsk ( Stolp ) in the diocese of Pomerania-Greater Poland of the Evangelical-Augsburg Church in Poland .
Today, mostly Catholic residents live in Potęgowo. The place is (still) in the Parochie (Polish: Parafia) Skórowo ( Schurow ), now in the deanery Główczyce ( Glowitz ) in the diocese of Pelplin ( Archdiocese of Danzig ) of the Catholic Church in Poland .
