Czołpino (German: Scholpin)[1] is a village in the administrative district of Gmina Smołdzino, within Słupsk County, Pomeranian Voivodeship, in northern Poland.[2] It lies approximately 6km (04miles) north of Smołdzino, 310NaN0 north-east of Słupsk, and 980NaN0 north-west of the regional capital Gdańsk. It is within the Slovincian National Park, on the Slovincian Coast, in the historic region of Pomerania.
The area became part of the emerging Polish state in the 10th century. Following Poland's fragmentation, it formed part of the Duchy of Pomerania and other splinter duchies. From the 18th century it was part of the Kingdom of Prussia, and from 1871 it was also part of Germany. Following Germany's defeat in World War II in 1945, the area became again part of Poland.
