History
Jaroszewy was a private church village within the Polish Crown, administratively located in the Tczew County in the Pomeranian Voivodeship, owned by the monastery in Pelplin.[2]
During the
SS and Selbstschutz.[3] In November 1939, the Germans expelled 76 Poles from the village.[4] The farms of expelled Poles were then handed over to Germans as part of the Lebensraum
policy. In 1942, the occupiers changed the name to Eberhardsdorf to erase traces of Polish origin. German occupation ended in 1945, and the historic name of the village was restored.
