1) Also known as Słabęcinek or Sławęcin Mniejszy, but officially known as Slabencinek. It was called Slavaczino in 1505 and Sławęczinko Grodzkie in 1583. A village and folwark located in powiat Inowrocław. It is located about 4 kilometers northwest of the urban district of Inowrocław and borders Sławęcin. Sławęcinek belongs to the Kościelec Parish. There is a post office and railway station located in Inowrocław. Together, with the folwark that has 3 houses with 53 inhabitants and 100 hectares of land, the rural district has 7 houses with 96 inhabitants (89 Catholics and 7 Protestants) and 184 hectares of land (160 hectare of farmland).
By 1480, Sławęcinek already belonged to the Royal Kingdom of Poland. In 1505, after Stanisław Jarocki pledged his association with the King (he became the Marshall of the Crown), King Aleksandr granted him the ownership of Sławęcinek (this translation of the history may be erroneous) (Kod. Dypl. Pol. Rzyszcz., II, 977). In 1565, 2 łan were rented to the peasants for 2 złoty and 24 groszy. The folwark, combined with the estate’s 4 1/2 łan, produced an income of 73 złoty and 24 groszy. In 1583, there was a 1 łan settlement and 2 crofts. In 1771, Sławęcinek paid a sum of 100 złoty per quarter of land and was held by Antoni Dąmbski (the Governor of the Brześć Kujawski Voivodeship). After 1793, the Prussian government incorporated Sławęcinek into the Inowrocław domain. The current owner of the Sławęcinek folwark is Manfred Guradze.
