The village was first mentioned as Darsowe around 1180, when Casimir I gave the village to the Danish Norbertines from Lund who came to Białoboki.[2] In 1208, Dukes Bogislaw II and Casimir II, and in 1224, Pomeranian Duchess Anastasia, confirmed the granting of the village to the Norbertine monastery in Białoboki.[3] The monastery in Bialoboki ruled Darżewo directly until 1487, when the village was given as a fief to Heinrich Borcke.[4]
In 1910, the village had a population of 265.[5] Darżewo, which belonged to the Gryfice district, was part of the Evangelical parish in Dargoslaw and the district of Molstowo.[6]
