history

Already in 1491 Zakrzewo (the place name Zakrzewo occurs 25 times in today's Poland) as a church village. In 1544 the village belonged to an estate owned by Adalbert and Johannes Zakrzewski. In the first half of the 19th century, the lordship founded the New Zakrzewo colony , in which they mainly settled Protestant colonists, on land about three and a half kilometers from the old town center, which was granted to it in 1822 when the landlord and peasant conditions were regulated .

In 1871 the place received a station of the Prussian Eastern Railway ( Berlin - Königsberg (Prussia) ), today a station on the railway line Tczew – Küstrin-Kietz border .

Before 1945 the village belonged to the Flatow district , until 1920 in the West Prussian administrative district of Marienwerder , then in the province of Grenzmark Posen-West Prussia and from 1938 in the administrative district of the same name in the Prussian province of Pomerania . It belonged to the administrative district Glumen (now Polish: Głomsk). Associated localities were:

  • Neu Buschdorf (now Polish: Nowe Zakrzewo )
  • Small, medium and large Friedrichsberg ( Drożyska Małe , Średnie and Wielkie )

Towards the end of the Second World War , the region was occupied by the Red Army in the spring of 1945 . The village was then placed under Polish administration. Unless the resident German villagers had fled, they were expelled by the local Polish administrative authorities in the following period .

Zakrzewo has been part of the Powiat Złotowski in the Greater Poland Voivodeship since 1945 (1975 to 1998 Piła Voivodeship ) and has been the seat and eponymous place of the rural community since 1973.

religion

Catholic parish

The majority of the residents of Zakrzewo were of the Catholic denomination in the 19th century , especially since the Polish-speaking part of the village population predominated. Since the population of the Flatow district predominantly belonged to the Protestant denomination, there was no Catholic church in many villages. Around 1800 Zakrzewo was the seat of a Roman Catholic provost house , in which the Catholics of the neighboring villages were parish without their own Catholic church; Pastor Tuszynski acted as provost at that time. Around the middle of the 19th century, the Catholics of the following villages belonged to the Catholic parish of Zakrzewo: Groß Friedrichsberg, Glumen, Karlsdorf, Königsdorf, Lanken, Linde, Ossowo, Pottlitz, Wersk and Polish Wisniewke. Pastor Bolesław Domański worked here from 1903 to 1939 , who was also politically active and campaigned for the interests of Polish minorities in the Weimar Republic . Today the parish belongs to the deanery Złotów I (Flatow) in the Bydgoszcz (Bromberg) diocese of the Catholic Church in Poland .

Catholic village church

In the 18th century Zakrzewo was one of four of a total of nineteen villages in the Flatow district that had their own Catholic church. The church, built in 1710, was a half-timbered building .

The Catholic Church Mariji Magdaleni (" Maria Magdalena ") was founded in 1839 at the expense of the Prussian King Friedrich Wilhelm III. built and is a massive construction made of field stones.

Evangelical parish

The Protestant church members in Zakrzewo still do not have their own place of worship. Before 1945 they visited the church in Königsdorf (today in Polish: Czernice). It belonged to the church district Flatow of the church province West Prussia in the church of the Old Prussian Union . The last German clergyman before 1945 was Pastor Martin Mey .

Today the evangelical believers are members of the parish Piła (Schneidemühl) in the diocese of Pomerania-Greater Poland of the Evangelical-Augsburg Church in Poland .

school

Pastor Dr. B. Domański School in Zakrzewo in 1969

There was already a school in Zakrzewo in 1653. The Catholic elementary school, which was used in the 19th century, dates back to 1810. Today it bears the name of Pastor Domański in recognition of his services to the Poles living in Germany from 1931 until his death in 1939.

The Protestant students from the Neu Zakrzewo colony initially attended a Protestant elementary school in a neighboring colony, but then also attended the Catholic school in Zakrzewo, where a teacher from a neighboring parish gave them Protestant religious instruction. Because of the long way to school, the Prussian government decided in the second half of the 19th century to set up an additional Protestant elementary school in Neu Zakrzewo.

local community

The rural community (gmina wiejska) Zakrzewo includes the village itself and 13 other villages with school offices (sołectwa). The community area covers 162.5 km².

The eastern boundary of the municipality is also the border of the powiat Złotowski to the powiat Sępoleński ( Zempelburg ) or the Voivodeship of Greater Poland and the Voivodeship of Kuyavian-Pomeranian . Between 1920 and 1939 the border between the German Reich and the " Polish Corridor " ran here .
