The elongated former manor and farming village Schlönwitz is mentioned in the Neumark land register in 1337 as Slonewitz and belonged to the Schivelbein region. In 1487, Elector Johann Cicero von Brandenburg enfeoffed Joachim Lieventhal zu Schivelbein with half the village of Schlönwitz.

In 1736 the village had 14 farmers. In 1761 it was plundered by Russian troops in the Seven Years' War and almost completely destroyed.

440 people lived in Schlönwitz in 1843, 561 in 1861 and 594 in 1939 (in 143 households).

The 1,595.5-hectare field mark was before the war by the two manors Dr. Kleine-Fuhrmann (810 hectares) and Pauline Perrin (270 hectares) as well as 17 farms.

On March 3, 1945, Schlönwitz was occupied by Red Army troops. The local population was expelled and the village came under Polish administration. As Słonowice it is now a district of the municipality Brzeżno ( Briesen ) in the powiat Świdwiński .

Parish church

In 1737 the Schlönwitz church was built in simple half - timbered houses closed on three sides. The tower had to be demolished in 1850 because it was dilapidated. A belfry was built in its place.

The furnishings include an altar structure with rich carvings (the crucifixion of Jesus in the middle picture ) from around 1700. It came here from the Marienkirche in Köslin in 1843 and was bought by the brewery owner Hindenberg at an auction.

The pulpit from the same period bears five figures of the apostles , which came from a late Gothic shrine altar.

There were five wooden reliefs from around 1600 on the organ loft.

A 1.40 meter high figure of the risen Christ comes from the same period.

All carvings are said to have originally stood in the pilgrimage chapel on the Gollen (now in Polish: Góra Chełmska) near Köslin.
