Local knowledge
The Pomeranian Vietzow was - like the neighboring Wutzow - of Wendish origin. As early as 1250, the place was owned by a family whose name was unknown. It is said to have been a "knight-citizen" who had to defend Belgard Castle in the event of war . In addition, Vietzow was liable to tax at the Belgarder Schloss.
In 1445 Lüdeke Clest is named as the owner of Vietzow. Except for the period between 1860 and 1922, when Vietzow was owned by the von Rhoeden family, the place belonged to the von Kleist family until 1945 .
The estate mainly cultivated light to medium-heavy soils. Large areas of cultivation were provided with wheat and clover. Most of the potato harvest was processed in the estate's own distillery. In addition, a sawmill, a brickworks and the sheep farm in Karlshof (Sławomierz) belonged to the estate.
In 1856 there were 312 inhabitants in Vietzow with the two Vorwerke Karlshof (Sławomierz) and Neuhof (Trzebiec). In 1939 the number rose to 387 citizens in 91 households. The last town mayor was Bruno Buhrke until 1945.
Vietzow belonged with the communities Bolkow and Wutzow to the registry office district Wutzow. The competent district court was in Belgard , and the police force was exercised by the Landjägermeister in Wutzow.
In early March 1945, Soviet troops occupied the place. A trek that was put together at short notice was already caught up and wiped out by Russian units in Klaptow shortly after Koerlin (Karlino). As a result of the war, Vietzow came into Polish hands. The German population had to leave the village, even if there was a good understanding between them and the Polish mayor Reinecke - an exception at the time. Vietzow is now called Wicewo a district of Gmina Tychowo in the powiat Białogardzki .
