Chłapowo, Pomeranian Voivodeship

Chłapowo is a seaside resort and village in the administrative district of Gmina Władysławowo, within Puck County, Pomeranian Voivodeship, in northern Poland.

Chłapowo was a royal village of the Polish Crown, administratively located in the Puck County in the Pomeranian Voivodeship.

In 1877–1949, 124 box graves of the East Pomeranian culture from the Iron Age (650-400 BC) were discovered and examined in Chłapowo.

Archaeologists found well-preserved amber ornaments, ashtrays, glass beads, earthenware, and jewelry.

[citation needed] Summer vacationers (mainly from Warsaw) rented rooms from the peasants who lived in the village.

Later, as a result of competition with other resorts (Władysławowo, Jastrzębia Góra, Karwia, Hel Peninsula), Chłapowo lost its importance, preserving the atmosphere of a fishing village.
