Glowitz (Glowczyce), Kreis Stolp, Pommern

This is the church for the several very nice manorial farms in village of Glowitz. Here is the picture of one estate house:

The church that you will see below was built in 1981 but the parish goes back a long way. It was a Kashubian church and in 1775 the pastor was expelled because he wanted to introduce lessons in German. It was also a Puttkammer manorial farm village like Wollin and Podel. Here are pictures of the church taken through the arches of the gate to the manor house (gut):

 

Occasionally, the Remus family working Podel and Wollin worshipped here. Here is a map of the area:
