The motorway at Kołbaskowo is the site of a major Schengen border crossing on the European route E28 connecting Berlin (Germany) with Szczecin and Gdańsk.

The neighbouring village on the German side of the border is Pomellen, part of the Nadrensee municipality.

The oldest known mention of the village comes from 1243, when Duke Barnim I granted the local tithe to the Cistercian women monastery in Szczecin.

The most precious historic landmark of the village is the Romanesque Holy Trinity church with Gothic and Baroque interior, which was built in the 13th century with granite.

The Bus line 81 leads to Siadło Górne, Przecław and Szczecin: Gumieńce, Kościuszko Square and Nowe Miasto.
