Szumiąca [ ˈszu'mjonca ] ( German  Königsmühl ) is a village in the West Pomeranian Voivodeship in Poland . It belongs to the Gmina Kamień Pomorski (City and Rural Municipality of Cammin) in the Powiat Kamieński (Cammin District) .

The estate with hamlet was called Weichmühl (also: Weickenmühle or Weiken Muhle ) until 1820 and was after a stay of the Prussian King Friedrich Wilhelm III . renamed Königsmühl.

Until 1945 Königsmühl formed a place to live in the rural community of Rarvin and belonged with this to the district of Cammin i. Pom. the province of Pomerania . Presumably belonging to the original possession of von Flemming , the estate was, after changing owners, among others, of the knight Heinrich von der Osten zu Plathe and the imperial count von Wartensleben -Schwirsen, 1783 resp. Acquired in 1793 from mill master Poppe. In 1870 the manor comprised 1069 acres with 92 inhabitants; the last German owner (245 hectares) was Anna Schildberg, married Volz, who in addition to von Flemming- Benz exercised the patronage of the parish church of Königsmühl belonging to the village . The village of Königsmühl also had a school right next to the manor.

After the final expulsion of the German population in August 1945, Königsmühl, like all of Western Pomerania, came to Poland. Königsmühl received the Polish place name Szumiąca .

The church and cemetery with a hereditary burial were located on a hill, directly next to the estate. The church, which was destroyed after the fire of 1803 and then rebuilt in various steps (1804/1865/1903), without a tower, was, like the manor complex built as a square courtyard (years of construction: 1800/1862), in the course of the effects of the war after March 1945 eliminated. In contrast, the parish, school and manor village, with settlement and farm buildings, remained without significant damage due to the chaos of war. This also applies to the brick construction of the former hereditary burial, which still serves as a chapel today.
