Charbrowo [xarˈbrɔvɔ] (German: before 1937 Charbrow, after 1937 Degendorf)[1] is a village in the administrative district of Gmina Wicko, within Lębork County, Pomeranian Voivodeship, in northern Poland.[2]
It is a linear settlement.[3]
Etymology
editThe name of the village is derived from the Old Polish given name Charbry or Chrobry.[3]
History
editIn 1286, Duke Mestwin II granted the village to the Diocese of Kuyavia.[3] Since 1564, it passed to the Wejher, Krokowski and other noble families.[3] Polish Reformed Church services were held in the village since the 1680s, but the congregation soon became Lutheran.[4]
