Place name

Sellberg - until 1945 in the district of Schlawe i. Pom. - also appeared in the name forms Selbur and Selberg . Under the name Selberg A , it was differentiated for a long time from Selberg B , which - only two kilometers away - to the district of Rummelsburg i. Pom. belonged and kept this name until 1945. Today both communities are in the Powiat Koszaliński and are united as districts of Polanów. Both now have the name Żelibórz, whereby - to distinguish them - Stary (near Sellberg ) and Nowy (near Selberg B ) are prefixed.

history

Sellberg used to belong to the Pollnower feudal complex. In 1575 the von Lettow family are mentioned on Selbur , in 1770 the estate came from the von Glasenapp family via the von Lettow family to Colonel Friedrich Ernst von Wrangel . The estate was relocated in the 1920s.

In 1818 the place had 17 inhabitants. The number rose to 125 by 1895 and fell again to 113 by 1939.

Until 1945 Sellberg was with the communities Varbelow (now Polish: Warblewo) and Vellin (Wielin) a part of the district of Vellin and belonged to the registry office district Pollnow-Land in the district court area Pollnow. The localities Bartelow (Bartlewo) and Raderang (Grabowice) belonged to the community Sellberg and lay in the district of Schlawe i. Pom. in the administrative district of Köslin in the Prussian province of Pomerania .

On March 7, 1945, Red Army troops occupied the village. Some farmers tried to flee towards Stolp by horse and cart. They were caught up and had to return on foot. Numerous shootings followed. Several women were abducted to Russia to work.

Polish families later took over the farms and the German residents were all evicted by the summer of 1946 . Sellberg came under the name of Stary Żelibórz under Polish sovereignty and became part of the urban and rural municipality Polanów in the Powiat Koszaliński in the West Pomeranian Voivodeship (until 1998 Koszalin Voivodeship ).

church

Until 1945 Sellberg, whose inhabitants were predominantly Protestant , did not have its own church. The place of the church was Pollnow , which belonged as a parish to the church district Schlawe in the church of the Old Prussian Union .

After 1945 the predominantly Roman Catholic residents were integrated into the parish Żydowo . It belongs to the Deanery Polanów in the Diocese of Köslin-Kolberg of the Catholic Church in Poland . The few Protestant residents are looked after by the Koszalin parish in the Pomeranian-Greater Poland diocese of the Evangelical Augsburg Church in Poland .
