history

The village emerged from the former Radawnitz estate.

According to the vassal table of 1756, the family from the east in Radawnitz was wealthy. In 1783 the manor was owned by the von der Osten-Sacken family; in 1853 E. von Grabowski was the landowner. By 1809 there were thirty fire pits in the village.

In 1925 there were 821 inhabitants in Radawnitz, who were distributed over 156 households; of these inhabitants, 484 were Catholic and 345 Protestant. At the beginning of the 1930s, the district of Radawnitz had an area of ​​23.5 hectares, and there were 97 houses on the parish grounds. In addition to the village of Radawnitz, the community also included the Adolfshof, Gut Radawnitz and Mariannenhof residential areas .

The estate still existed in 1945; there was also a forester's house in the village. Of the 2,350 hectares of parish land, 318 hectares belonged to the public sector, 1,945 hectares were agricultural land, and 166 hectares were forest.

Radawnitz was a rural community in the Flatow district and the seat of an administrative district until 1945 . With the Flatow district, the municipality of Radawnitz belonged to the province of West Prussia until the Versailles Treaty came into force in 1920 after the First World War , then to the province of Grenzmark Posen-West Prussia and, since its dissolution as part of the administrative reform of October 1, 1938, to the province of Pomerania .

Towards the end of World War II , the region was occupied by the Red Army in late January / early February 1945 . Shortly afterwards Radawnitz was placed under Polish administration together with the whole of Western Pomerania . The village was renamed Radawnica . Unless the local villagers had fled, they were subsequently expropriated and driven west across the Oder .
