Geographical location

The village is located in Western Pomerania , about ten kilometers south of the city of Rummelsburg ( Miastko ).

The place can be reached via a spur road that branches off at Miłocice ( Falkenhagen ) from Landesstraße 20 ( Stargard ( Stargard in Pomerania ) - Gdynia ( Gdingen ), here former German Reichsstraße 158 Berlin - Lauenburg (Pomerania) ). There are secondary road connections to Starzno ( Starsen ) and Przeradz ( Heinrichsdorf ) in the Człuchów ( Schlochau ) district.

Słosinko is a station on the state railway line 405 from Piła ( Schneidemühl ) to Ustka ( Stolpmünde ). From 1902 to 1992 the railway line Schlochau – Reinfeld (Człuchów – Słosinko) joined this line in Reinfeld , but its operation has been discontinued.

Place name

The German place name " Reinfeld " occurs several times in Germany. In the district of Rummelsburg , to which the place known today as Słosinko formerly belonged, there was a second "Reinfeld" (now in Polish: Barnowiec, Gmina Kołczygłowy ( Alt Kolziglow )). The latter was also called “Reinfeld B” (near Barnow), the former “Reinfeld R” (near Rummelsburg) to distinguish it.

The village was first founded under the Teutonic Order in the 14th century. At the beginning of the 15th century it was owned by the Grell family .

The second foundation took place around 1563. Around 1590 16 farmers and 8 kossäts are mentioned. In 1685 there were only 10 half-farmers, in 1717 there were just 13. After all, in 1784 there were 12 half-farmers, 1 Kossät, 1 jug and 1 schoolmaster.

In its history, Reinfeld has been in the possession of different owners, among them the von Massow family, which is often represented in the Rummelsburg region . The last owner before 1945 was Dr. Called Störmer-Stettin .

While 139 inhabitants were counted here in 1818, there were already 328 in 1871. In 1925 the Hammer estate was incorporated into Reinfeld. Reinfeld-Hammer had a total of 563 inhabitants in 1935, of whom 428 were active in agriculture and forestry.

Until 1945 Reinfeld-Hammer formed a rural community in the Rummelsburg i. Pom. the Prussian province of Pomerania . In the community there were the residential areas Alt Fließhof , Bahnhof Reinfeld (Pom.) , Eichhof , Gut Charlottenhof , Haferkamp, ​​Hammer, Lindenhof and Reinfeld b. Rummelsburg i. Pom.

Towards the end of the Second World War , the region around Reinfeld-Hammer was occupied by the Red Army in the spring of 1945 . After the end of the war, the place, like all of Western Pomerania, was placed under Polish administration. Then the immigration of Polish civilians began. Reinfeld-Hammer received the new Polish name Słosinko . In the following period the Alteinwohner from Reinfeld Hammer were sold .

Today 699 people live in the place that now belongs to Gmina Miastko in the powiat Bytowski of the Pomeranian Voivodeship ( Stolp Voivodeship until 1998 ).

church

Parish

Reinfeld, which was almost without exception Protestant until 1945, was a branch parish in the parish of Falkenhagen (today in Polish: Miłocice). The parish of Falkenhagen then belonged to the parish of Rummelsburg (Miastko) in the eastern district of the ecclesiastical province of Pomerania in the church of the Old Prussian Union . In 1940 the Reinfeld parish had 661 parishioners and was thus even larger than the mother parish in Falkenhagen. The last German clergyman was Pastor Georg Schulz , while the church patronage was most recently Dr. Störmer-Stettin was responsible.

Since 1945 the residents of Słosinko have been predominantly Catholic . Even today, the place is a subsidiary parish in the parish Miłocice, which is expanded to include the other daughter parish Wołcza Wielka ( Groß Volz ). The parish belongs to the Miastko deanery in the Köslin-Kolberg diocese of the Catholic Church in Poland . Protestant church members are today assigned to the parish office in Koszalin ( Köslin ) in the diocese of Pomerania-Greater Poland of the Evangelical-Augsburg Church in Poland . The place of worship is the Protestant church in Wołcza Wielka ( Groß Volz ).

Village church

A church was built in Reinfeld in 1590, although the next one in Falkenhagen was less than two kilometers away. In 1595 the Duke in Stettin warned that the Reinfeld Church should be torn down again so that the Falkenhagen Church could be more easily maintained. There were so many protests and petitions that the Duke left their church to the Reinfelders.

The church stood in complete isolation on a hill outside the village. It was considered the oldest half-timbered church in the Rummelsburg i. Pom. On the west side stood a low wooden tower without a helmet. The double row of windows in the church was striking: one under the eaves, a second below the lower half-timbered frame. On the north side an external staircase led to the galleries inside.

A door only 1.50 meters high led into the interior of the church. In general, the interior was low and dark. Its furnishings date from the 17th century and were all built by local craftsmen. The altar cheeks were made in real folk art , regardless of style or time. It was similar with a double cross on the north wall, on the lower beam of which Christ was hanging, with Mary and John below him. It should have been a consecration memorial for the dead in a folk way.

The church was demolished in 1945/46. In 1995 a new church was built and it was named Kościół pw.NMP Królowej Pokoju .

school

In 1780 there was a school building in Reinfeld, which the children from Heinrichsdorf (today in Polish: Przerazdz) also attended. In 1937 there were two teachers here who taught 97 children.
