Impressions:
Not much to say about Barfussdorf. If you arrive from the north, from Gollnowshagen you see a few small enterprises before the old central place of the village, beside of that it's very quiet here. I didn't see any shops at the old central place. Many of the old houses still exist, but not everyone in the best shape.
The little church still exists, the bell hang on the old central place 30 meters away. The cemetaryeht which formerly was around the church, doesn't exist anymore.
If someone speaks polish: hier is a description of the village on the polish Gollnow-homepage:
