Local history
Information about the town – Polska / wielkopolskie
Lędyczek and its neighboring areas belonged to the Teutonic Order in 1309. The Teutonic Knights built here a small defensive stronghold Landeck which protected an important trade route from Greater Poland to Słupsk. Landeck was again within the borders of Poland in 1466. Over three centuries later, it belonged to the Prussian partition in 1772. Landeck was granted town privileges in 1775. The town was captured by the Soviet Army during the Second World War – in January 1945. The town was renamed to Lędyczek after 1945. Lędyczek lost town privileges in 1972.
