Skalin ( German Schellin ) is a village in Gmina Stargard in the West Pomeranian Voivodeship in Poland .

Village church

Geographical location

The village is located in Western Pomerania , about 7 kilometers southwest of the city center of Stargard (Stargard i. Pom.) And about 30 kilometers east of Stettin ( Szczecin ).

Neighboring places are in the west Wierzchląd (Verchland) , in the north Kunowo (Kunow an der Straße) and in the east Golczewo (Goltzow) . To the south of the village are the desert areas Ludwigsthal and Słotnica (Schlötenitz) .

About two kilometers to the west is the Madüsee , the largest inland lake in Pomerania .

history

The village was first mentioned in an exchange contract that the Pomeranian Duke Barnim I concluded on October 7, 1248 with the Camminer Bishop Wilhelm because of the Lands of Stargard and Kolberg. Here the village appeared under the name Scalin ; the village was one of the villages that the duke took from the bishop as a fief. After eight years of belonging to the land of the diocese of Cammin , the land of Stargard was once again directly under the rule of the sovereign.

The place name is probably explained by the Slavic word scala , which means "stone"; Scalin then means "stone place". On the Lubin map of 1618 the place is already listed as Schellin .

Part of the estate was formerly an old fiefdom of the Hindenburg family . Around 1780 there was a preacher, a sexton, twelve farmers, a kossat , a smithy, an inn and a total of 46 households in the church village of Schellin . In the course of 1821, the then owner of the manor, a Freiherr von der Goltz , laid out the Goltzow farm east of Schellin, 2.5 kilometers away on the left side of the path that leads from Schellin to the village of Klützow . Until the middle of the 19th century there was a patrimonial court in Schellin .

The neighboring Verchland was later incorporated into Schellin. At the beginning of the 1930s, the municipality, which included Schellin, Goltzow and Verchland , covered an area of ​​11.8 km². There were a total of 54 residential buildings in the municipality. Until 1945 the community Schellin belonged to the district Pyritz in the province of Pomerania .

Towards the end of the Second World War , Schellin was occupied by the Soviet Army in early March 1945 . After the war the village became part of Poland as Skalin .

Administrative structure

The village is today in the Gmina Stargard (rural community Stargard in Pomerania) and belongs to this powiat Stargardzki (Stargarder Kreis) in the West Pomeranian Voivodeship .

Parish

The majority of the population present in Schellin before 1945 belonged to the Protestant denomination. The Protestants from Schellin belonged to the Protestant parish Schellin, the Catholics to the Catholic parish Stargard i. Pom. The Protestant parish of Schellin was part of the Werben Synod.

Schellin had a mother church, the branch of which was the church in the Verchland district. A church bell 57 cm in diameter hangs in the steeple of the church of Schellin. Around 1813 the parish was looked after by Pastor Otto Friedrich August Vogel (born October 18, 1771 in Neuchâtel in Mecklenburg), who had emerged as the author of textbooks for religious instruction as well as fatherland poems.

Others

As the pastor Granzin from Schellin reported on July 24th, 1733, on April 11th, 1715 a meteorite impact accompanied by loud noise should have taken place on the field marrow of the Schellin estate .
