history

Village church

Wulkow was mentioned in a document from 1229 , with which the Pomeranian Duke Barnim I confirmed the possession of Wulkow to the Order of St. John with the right to settle Germans there. Wulkow was later a fiefdom of the Order of St. John at Sonnenburg. The Lieutenant General von Blankensee bequeathed his rights to the estate in his will of July 8, 1732 to the son of the royal Prussian Rittmeister Christoph Henning von Papstein. This was then enfeoffed on May 13, 1732 by the order government to Sonnenberg with the Vorwerk. The estate was later awarded to his sons Hasso Ernst and Jakob Christoph von Papstein. In 1750 the estate came into the possession of the family of the bailiff Andreas Jordan, who left it to his son Johann Philipp Wilhelm Jordan that year. When this went bankrupt, the property had to be auctioned off in court for the highest bid. At that time Kaspar Otto von Wedel was awarded the contract .

The village belonged to Wulkow 1780 a Vorwerk , eight farms, a windmill , owned by the miller was a blacksmith shop, a tavern, a schoolmaster, 22 fireplaces (households) and a church. At the beginning of the 19th century there was a reorganization of the landlord and peasant ownership structure, the so-called 'peasant liberation'. From then on, the farmers were no longer obliged to perform clamping services on the estate.

Until 1945 Wulkow belonged to the Saatzig district in the Prussian province of Pomerania . Before 1945 the estate was owned by the Nicolai family.

After the region had been conquered and occupied by the Red Army towards the end of the Second World War , it - like all of Western Pomerania - was placed under Polish administration. The German village was given the Polish name Ulikowo . The immigration of Poles began, displacing the villagers from their houses and from their farms. The local German population was expelled from the village until around 1947 on the basis of the so-called Bierut decrees .
