history
Archaeological finds, such as bronze tools, from the time of the Lausitz culture , approx. 1000 BC. BC indicated the existence of earlier settlements. An urn cemetery was unearthed near the village and several urns were uncovered in a nearby field, where bronze needles and bronze rings were found.
The derivation of the name Schwanenbeck is traced back to the Wendish god Swantewit (Holy Light) and Beck like Bach. The name of the place has also changed over time. In old documents the place was called Schwanebeck. Schwanenbeck was created through the pronunciation of the name by the residents.
In Schwanenbeck there were 128 residential buildings around 1930, most of which were lined up along the village street ( Gassendorf ) and with their gables typically facing the street. The village also had a school and a mill on the Krebsbach, which survived the Second World War unscathed. The school building had two adjoining classrooms and two teacher's apartments. The occupation of the second teaching position was based on the number of students. In 1900 it had 120, in 1921 88 and in 1944 72 students. Part of the maintenance of the teachers consisted of the allocation of fuel and natural produce, the quantities of which were determined by the government and the community had to provide.
The mill building from 1827 still exists. The mill, with a daily output of around 40 quintals of flour and grist, is no longer in operation, but the water turbine is still there. The Krebsbach, which was then dammed up in front of the mill, served the local children as a welcome swimming area.
There were 23 full farmers and one half farmer in the village . The size of the agricultural land of the full farmers was about 130 acres . It was a ducal village, which meant that the farmers had to work with their horses on the prince's estate at certain times.
The following craftsmen worked in the village: master carpenters, carpenters, carpenters and car makers, shoemakers, tailors as well as blacksmiths and electricians. Trades and trades: master bakers, grocers, innkeepers, mill operators, cattle, slaughter and grain dealers.
The village had 710 inhabitants in 1871 (religion: 696 Protestant, six other Christians, eight Jews), 589 in 1925 and around 570 in 1945. Their colloquial language was Low German.
Before the end of the Second World War , on February 2, 1945, the residents of the village fled together with the aim of Rügen . After the end of the war, Schwanenbeck and the whole of Western Pomerania were placed under Polish administration. Some of the residents returned to Schwanenbeck and were expelled to the west in August 1945 .
The village of Schwanenbeck was renamed Suchanówko .
church
In the 13th century, a granite stone church (in the form of an early Gothic ) was built by the Order of St. John . The church tower (in field stone) was in 15./16. Century added. The bell tower had two bells cast from bronze from 1667 and 1682. With its rising top and golden star, the tower was one of the highest in the Schwanenbeck area.
The church had a wooden pulpit decorated with carved figures and an organ with eight registers and 500 pipes from 1895. In 1945 the church was destroyed except for the stone walls and rebuilt in 1990. Today the church belongs to the Catholic parish of Suchań.
In the churchyard, which is surrounded by a stone wall that still exists today, is the old cemetery, whose tombstones no longer exist. Two iron grave crosses are still in the church tower, where they are kept. There is still a granite memorial on the square today, on which the names of the 40 Schwanenbeckers who died in the First World War are carved. In the Second World War, the Schwanenbecker had 31 fallen soldiers to mourn.
The "New Schwanenbeck Cemetery" was laid out on the northern outskirts, the grave crosses and stones are no longer there today. The parsonage (built around 1730) and a parsonage widow's house (built around 1800) belonged to the church. In 1925 Schwanenbeck had its own Protestant pastoral office.
