history

An important settlement is said to have existed in the Rotzog area as early as prehistoric times. The place was a fiefdom of Pollnow, whose property had belonged to the von Glasenapp family since 1472 . In 1672, eleven peasants and one half- farmer lived here who had to do manual and tensioning services for the Vettrin (Wietrzno) sheep farm .

Around 1780 Rotzog is a farming village with 15 farms and 1 schoolmaster. The place was divided into three parts by inheritance:

• Rotzog A: 8 farms, belonged to the fiefdom of Vettrin , which was bought by Captain von Below in 1781 , who passed it on to Colonel Ernst von Wrangel around 1800 ,
• Rotzog B: 4 farms, belonged to Natzlaff (Nacław), which a major von Lettow owned,
• Rotzog C: 3 farms, belonged to Zetthun (Cetuń) and was owned by a von Glasenapp family .

Only after the Prussian reforms did Rotzog become a self-contained farming community.

In 1818 145 people lived here, by 1939 the number of inhabitants rose to 249.

On February 26, 1945, Soviet troops occupied the village. On June 18, 1946, all residents were driven onto the street to set out on foot to Schlawe, from where they were transported to the west.

Until 1945, Elisenhof (Polish: Raczkowo), a suburb of the village of Datzow (Dazewo), and Rosenhof belonged to the Rotzog community . At that time Rotzog was a municipality in the district of Schlawe i. Pom. in the administrative district of Köslin in the Prussian province of Pomerania . It was assigned to the office Natzlaff (Nacław), the registry office Pollnow-Land and the district court Pollnow.
