history

Järshagen northwest of Schlawe and east of Rügenwalde on a map from 1794

The name spelling is different in earlier times: Jarslafshagen , Gerslaweshagen , Jerestzlaceshaghen or Jarslaffshagen . The name means "to the enclosure" of Jareslaus or Jaroslaw or Jerslaf . The prefix "Alt" only appeared after "Neu Järshagen" was added at the beginning of the 19th century.

The settlement founded in the Middle Ages originally belonged to the Dirlow castellan (Rügenwalde); the boundaries of the Järshagen district were determined by the respective ruling lord of the castle, probably by Jesko von Rügenwalde around 1333 . Later she belonged to the Rügenwalder office . Between 1900 and 1945 the number of its inhabitants was always below 800. The villagers lived primarily from agriculture, animal husbandry and forestry.

Until 1945 Alt Järshagen belonged to the district of Schlawe i. Pom. in Administrative district Köslin of Pomerania Province .

At the end of the Second World War , Alt Järshagen was occupied by the Red Army on March 7, 1945 . After the end of the war, the place - like all of Western Pomerania - came under Polish administration. The immigration of Polish and Ukrainian civilians began, who came mainly from areas east of the Curzon Line and who seized the houses and farms. From the summer of 1945, the ancestral German population was driven west by Polish militias .

Old Järshagen was renamed Stary Jarosław by the Poles .

Until 1945, the municipalities of Alt Järshagen, Alt Kugelwitz (now in Polish: Kowalewice), Grupenhagen (Krupy), Neu Järshagen (Nowy Jarosław), Neu Kugelwitz (Kowalewiczki), Schöningswalde (Sińczyca) and Sellen (Zielnowo) formed the Järshagen district in the Schlawe district i. Pom. in the administrative district of Köslin in the Prussian province of Pomerania . It was based in Alt Järshagen.

The registry office , which was responsible for all the municipalities mentioned, was also located in Alt Järshagen . The competent district court was that in Rügenwalde (Darłowo).

Parish church

The church with the west tower and annexes on both sides is a brick building and dates from the Gothic period around 1400. The altar table is bricked up and dates from around 1700. The main part is a carved image of the Lord's Supper , enclosed by four columns, between which Peter and Paul and Adam and Eve are depicted. The organ comes from Christian Friedrich Völkner from Dünnow (Duninowo) near Stolpmünde (Ustka) and was built in 1870.

The church has been a Protestant place of worship since the Reformation . In 1945 it was expropriated in favor of the Roman Catholic Church. On September 4, 1946, the building was re-consecrated and named Kościół Podwyższenia Krzyża Świętego (Church of the Exaltation of the Holy Cross).
