Parish church of Klein Soltikow

At the beginning of the 1930s, Klein Soltikow and Groß Soltikow (now in Polish: Sulechowo) were merged into one community called Soltikow. The von Schlieffen family has been named as the owner of the estate in Klein Soltikow since the 15th century. The last owner since 1939 was Christian Heinrich von Schlieffen , who fell in 1941. The last estate manager and mayor was Leo Karl Raasch.

In 1818 there were 176 inhabitants in Klein Soltikow. The number rose to 256 in 1885 and was even 325 in 1925. In 1933, 712 people lived in the united community of Soltikow. The Feldmark comprised 1,547 hectares, of which 766 hectares were on the estate.

Until 1945 the community Soltikow (with Groß- and Klein Soltikow) and the communities Kuhtz (Kusice), Leikow (Lejkowo) and Nemitz (Niemica) formed the administrative district of Soltikow in the district of Schlawe i. Pom. in the administrative district of Köslin in the Prussian province of Pomerania . These communities and additionally Söllnitz (Destinationsica) were also united to form the registry office district Soltikow.

As a result of the Second World War , the German population was evacuated from Klein Soltikow, the last residents left their homeland in 1957. The estate was initially operated by Russians, then by Poles with German staff.

Today Sulechówko, with 216 inhabitants, is part of the Gmina Malechowo in the Powiat Sławieński of the West Pomeranian Voivodeship ( Köslin Voivodeship until 1998 ).

Parish / Parafia

The inhabitants of Klein Soltikow belonged almost without exception to the Protestant church until 1945 . The places Adolphium (today Polish: Witosław), Groß Soltikow (Sulechowo), Klein Soltikow, Leikow (Lejkowo) (temporarily connected to Zirchow (Sierakowo Sławieński) by a parish vicariate ), Limbrechtshof (Darskowo) and Neuwelt (Kukułczyn) together form the community Klein Soltikow, to which 1409 church members belonged in 1940. The parish of Klein Soltikow was in turn a branch parish of the parish Nemitz (Niemica) and was in the district of the parish of Rügenwalde (Darłowo) of the church province of Pomerania of the Church of the Old Prussian Union . The last German clergyman who looked after the parish from Nemitz was Pastor Martin Vossberg.

The ecclesiastical administrative structure changed after 1945 when the place was integrated into the Roman Catholic Church in Poland . Since 1959, the former subsidiary church of Klein Soltikow has been the seat of Parafina (Parochie) Sulechówko, into which the former parish church Nemitz (Niemica) has now been incorporated as a subsidiary church, supplemented by the subsidiary church Sierakowo Sławieńskie ( Zirchow ). The current Catholic Parafina Sulechówko includes 20 localities with a total of 2,533 parishioners.

Today the Protestant church members are looked after by the parish office in Koszalin ( Köslin ) in the diocese of Pomerania-Greater Poland of the Polish Evangelical-Augsburg (i.e. Lutheran) Church.

Village / parish church

The village church in Klein Soltikow, which was evangelical until 1945, was built in the neo-Gothic style and was built in 1836.

At the beginning of the 20th century the church was extensively renovated.

Today the Catholic parish church is called "St. Andreas Bobola Church" and was restored in 1981.
