'''Radacz''' {{IPAc-pl|'|r|a|d|a|cz}} ({{langx|de|Raddatz}}) is a [[village]] in the administrative district of [[Gmina Borne Sulinowo]], within [[Szczecinek County]], [[West Pomeranian Voivodeship]], in north-western Poland.<ref name="TERYT">{{cite web |url=http://www.stat.gov.pl/broker/access/prefile/listPreFiles.jspa |title=Central Statistical Office (GUS) - TERYT (National Register of Territorial Land Apportionment Journal) |date=2008-06-01 |language=Polish}}</ref>

The village is situated in the historic region of [[Farther Pomerania]]. It lies approximately {{convert|16|km|mi|0}} north of [[Borne Sulinowo]], {{convert|10|km|mi|0|abbr=on}} west of [[Szczecinek]], and {{convert|134|km|mi|0|abbr=on}} east of the regional capital [[Szczecin]].

==History==
The settlement was first mentioned in a 1403 deed, when the area was part of the Imperial [[Duchy of Pomerania]]. The estates were held by the [[Von Kleist|Kleist]] noble family. After the [[House of Griffins|Griffin]] dukes became extinct, Raddatz was incorporated into the [[Brandenburg-Prussia]]n province of [[Province of Pomerania (1653–1815)|Pomerania]] in 1653.

The parish church was erected in 1744; it housed the personal carriage of the Polish king [[John III Sobieski]], which was brought here by Field Marshal [[Henning Alexander von Kleist]] in the First [[Silesian Wars|Silesian War]] and rebuilt as a pulpit (today on display in the [[Museum of King John III's Palace at Wilanów]]).

The von Kleist dynasty held the manor until the late 19th century. After [[World War II]], the region fell to the [[People's Republic of Poland|Republic of Poland]]. The remaining German population was [[Flight and expulsion of Germans from Poland during and after World War II|expelled]] and Radacz manor became a [[State Agricultural Farm]] (PGR). For the history of the region, see ''[[History of Pomerania]]''.
