history

Saleske southwest of Stolpmünde on the Baltic Sea and northwest of Stolp on a map from 1905.

Earlier forms of the name are: Szileske , Sileske , Selleszka , Seleszke and until 1945 Saleske . The Polish form of the name Zaleskie occurs three times as a place name and twice as the name of lakes in Poland.

According to the historical shape of the village, Zaleskie is a narrow street . In 1344 a von Typhano is mentioned as the owner, and from 1461 to 1945 it is owned by the von Belows . In 1480 the place was mentioned in the articles of complaint of Duke Bogislaw X. of Pomerania against his mother. In 1523 Henning von Below and the widows von Gerdt and Otto Below sat on Saleske.

Around 1784 Saleske had two knights' seats or porches , a windmill, twelve farmers, eight cottagers , a smithy and a schoolmaster with 73 households.

Until 1876 Saleske belonged to the district of Schlawe and was then affiliated to the district of Stolp - also located in the administrative district of Köslin in the Prussian province of Pomerania . In 1939 the community area was 1751 hectares with a resident population of 967 inhabitants. Saleske with the localities Brink (now Polish: Breń), Buchwald (Zabłocie) and Salesker Strand (Zalesin) was an official village, but belonged to the registry office Dünnow (Duninowo) and the district court of Stolpmünde (Ustka).

Towards the end of World War II , Red Army troops invaded the town from the west on March 7, 1945 . A Soviet administration was set up three days later. In the summer of 1945 Poles came to Saleske and took over farms and houses. All of the villagers were displaced in the following period . Saleske was renamed Zaleskie .

Later, in the Federal Republic of Germany 576 and in the DDR 247 displaced from Saleske villagers determined.

The village is now part of the Gmina Ustka in the powiat Słupski of the Pomeranian Voivodeship (1975-1998 Slupsk Voivodeship ). Today the village has about 400 inhabitants.

church

Village church

The Salesk Church dates from the end of the 16th century. The tower bears the year 1754. Inside the church there was a three-part winged altar from the first half of the 15th century before 1945. The pulpit was a 17th century work. The organ builder Christian Friedrich Völkner from the neighboring village of Dünnow (today Polish: Duninowo) built the organ here in 1869. The church, in which Protestant services took place for over 400 years , was expropriated in 1945 in favor of the Catholic Church in Poland .

Parish

Before 1945, the population of Saleske was almost without exception Protestant . In 1590 Saleske became a branch of the parish of Dünnow (Duninowo), and the village church there was a parish church until 1945. It belonged to the church district of Stolp-Stadt in the eastern district of the church province of Pomerania in the church of the Old Prussian Union .

In 1940 the Saleske parish had 1,054 members out of 3,090 in the entire parish. It was under the church patronage of the von Below family , most recently Walter von Below .

Since 1945, predominantly Catholic church members have lived in Zaleskie . Zaleskie is - like Możdżanowo ( Mützenow ) - a branch church of the parish Duninowo ( Dünnow ) in the deanery Ustka ( Stolpmünde ) in the diocese of Köslin-Kolberg of the Catholic Church in Poland . The Protestant residents now belong to the parish of the Kreuzkirche in Słupsk ( Stolp ) in the diocese of Pomerania-Greater Poland of the Evangelical-Augsburg Church in Poland .

school

In 1932 there were two elementary schools in the municipality of Saleske: a four-level school with four classes, three teachers and 162 school children in Saleske itself and a single-level school with one teacher and 20 school children in the Salesker Strand district (Polish: Zalesin). The first school holder in Saleske was Georg Stöckmann (until 1785).
