Schwerinshof
Schwerinshof was a residential area in the Prussian province of Pomerania . It was laid out after 1781 and is now desolate .
After the destruction caused by the Seven Years' War , King Frederick the Great made low-interest amelioration funds available for the economic development of Pomerania. District Administrator Sebastian Georg von Wedel received 5,800 Reichstaler in 1781 at an interest rate of 1 percent. With this money he built for his estate Schwerin initially in the northeast of the Vorwerk Gutsbezirks Kreutz and some years later in western Gutsbezirks the Vorwerk Schwerinshof.
The Vorwerk Schwerinshof was built about 3 kilometers southwest of the main Schwerin estate on the banks of the Wothschwiensee . Due to its location on the lake, it was also called “Seekathen”, as it is added to the brackets in the official measuring table sheet , also popularly known as “Seehof”.
Around 70 hectares of land were cultivated from Schwerinshof. Around 1870 there were 7 inhabitants in two families, in 1875 there were 22 inhabitants in four families and in 1912 there were 25 inhabitants. Around 1870 2 cows and 367 sheep were kept here.
Until 1945 Schwerinshof was a residential area of the Schwerin community in the Regenwalde district .
Towards the end of the Second World War , the residents of Schwerinshof fled from the approaching Red Army in March 1945 . The Vorwerk remained undestroyed when it was captured by the Red Army. Like all areas east of the Oder-Neisse border, Schwerinshof came to Poland. In the summer of 1945 some buildings burned down, from 1947 the remaining buildings were used as a source of firewood. According to a report in the Pomeranian newspaper from 1963, a Polish village clubhouse is said to have been set up in Schwerinshof at that time.
Today Schwerinshof is desolate. The desert is now in the area of the Gmina Węgorzyno (urban and rural municipality Wangerin) in the West Pomeranian Voivodeship in Poland . The former areas of the Vorwerk are now cultivated from Mieszewo (Meesow) .
