history

In the old days Pustchow was not only a farming, but also a fishing village. On the Düpt, a now silted lake, fishing was practiced. Until 1811, the farmers had to do castle services for the Belgard office, when they were canceled in return for tax. When the royal government sold the forest to private owners in 1830, forestry began to gain importance for the place.

Several splinter settlements belonged to Pustchow, u. a. the forest colony Pustchow (now Polish: Pustkówko ). In 1939 the community had 488 inhabitants in 128 households. The village belonged to the district and civil registry district Bulgrin ( Białogórzyno ) in the district court area of ​​Belgard until 1945 . The last German mayor was Paul Beilfuß.

At the beginning of March 1945 Pustchow was occupied by the Red Army . The community became Polish . The German residents left the place or were finally expelled by 1946 . Today Pustkowo is part of the rural community Białogard .
