Until 1945 Walldorf (Endersch, Schrötter)

The village was established after the Nowomiejski forest had been cleared. Ca. 1715, the village was located on both sides of the Nowy Dwór - Marzęcin route and was called Schwartze Tam and Winter Bahn. The following Mennonite names were mentioned in 1727: Albrecht, Gelbrandt, Kamcke, Lewens, Rowner Sowatzky, Stahl, Tews, Wieb, Wiens, and Zimmermann. In 1820, the village had 130 residents, including 127 Mennonites. The petition from 1868 was signed by Joann Epp and Dietrich Wiebe. In 1885, the village had 341 ha, 40 houses, 223 Lutherans and Catholics, and 117 Mennonites.

Village layout - single-homestead village on terpy, on both sides of the Marzęcino - Nowy Dwór Gdański road and a flood bank Waldhufendorf village on the northern bank of the Różewo Canal and on the eastern side of a local road that connects both sections.

The cultural landscape includes: a detectable layout of terpy and a system of draining ditches and polders. In 1980s, 15 out of 25 existing homesteads had historical buildings. Currently, 11 homesteads have Dutch homestead layouts (4 angular types) with historical buildings and partially modified or demolished outbuildings. Some homesteads have contemporary buildings unrelated to the traditional style.

No. 2 is a longitudinal Dutch homestead (contemporary outbuildings) situated in the southwestern section of the village, on the northern side of the local road that runs on the Różewo canal flood bank, facing it with its ridge. The house was erected in the mid 19th century on a brick underpinning and has a wooden structure with quoins covered by boards imitating Tuscan pilaster, a boarded gable, a double-pitched roof covered by asbestos tiles, and a bullseye in the southern roof slope. The gable elevation has 3 axes and a 3-axial gable with a window enclosed by quarter-circular skylights and a semicircular skylight above. The eastern elevation has 5 axes with an entrance (with a porch) located in the 2nd axis.
