![]() The village was founded by Dutch colonists at the end of the 16th century. Różewo was one of the most important Mennonite religious centers in the Żuławy region and had a great impact on other centers and communities. The first Mennonite church in Żuławy was erected in the village; it burned down in 1812. The new church was completed in 1813. Sources from 1727 mentioned 11 Mennonite surnames, sources from 1772 - 12 surnames, and the sources from 1776 mentioned the following names: Bestvader, Ens, Froes, Goetz, Harms, Hein, Hilbrand, Jantzen, Kasper, Claasen, Martens, Martin, Neufeld, Penner, Quap, Reimer, and Wienp. In 1820, the village had 80 residents, including 52 Mennonites. The petition from 1868 was signed by Boschmann, Siemens, Toews, and Wiens. Village layout - a colonial village on terpy and a flood bank Waldhufendorf village by the Różewski canal. The cultural landscape of the village has been heavily modified. B. Lipińska recorded no historical buildings on terpy. After 1945, one of the farms was converted into a state farm, PGR Różewo, which currently has contemporary buildings. The Mennonite cemetery, a field layout, a system of draining canals, and terpy with high vegetation have survived.
