The church village, which was called Wameliz in older times , has belonged to the Marienkirche in Stettin since its foundation in 1263 by the Pomeranian Duke Barnim I. Besides the chapter of the Marienkirche, the later Marienstift, knights in Wamlitz were also enfeoffed, for example the Muckerwitz . When Bernd Muckerwitz died in 1579, Duke Ernst Ludwig appointed his Chancellor Henning von Ramin as his fiefdom successor. Around the year 1775 there were eleven farmers in Wamlitz, a farmhouse , a windmill, a smithy, a schoolmaster and a total of 25 fireplaces. Around 1864 in Wamlitz there was a community center, a schoolhouse, nine farmers, a Kossaten, 15 Büdner , a windmill, a shoemaker, two blacksmiths, a carpenter, a linen weaver, a general store, two pubs and a total of 36 private houses. The school in which the sexton gave lessons was one class and was attended by about 60 children.

At the beginning of the 1930s, the district of Wamlitz had an area of ​​5.7 km², and there were a total of 46 residential buildings on the parish grounds on which Wamlitz was the only place to live. In 1925, 340 inhabitants were counted in the municipality of Wamlitz, who were distributed over 81 households.
