gm. Ostaszewo, pow. nowodworski, woj. pomorskie

Until 1945 Schönberger Fahre, TK (Schrötter), Fahr (Gotha), Schönbergsche Fehr (Endersch)

The village was associated with an old Vistula river crossing and an inn mentioned in 1478. According to the documents from 1634, the inn was owned by Simon Dieck and later by Isebrand Wiebe, who added new buildings. Peter van Roy from Podwale was mentioned in 1776. In 1820, the village had 95 residents, including 3 Mennonites.

Village layout - a flood bank row village and a marsh row village in the eastern section.

The cultural landscape has survived in fragments with a detectable spatial layout. In the flood bank section, the majority of old buildings have been replaced. New houses sprawl along the road to Ostaszewo merging these two villages into a single settlement. Examples of historical architecture include 3 wooden houses from the end of the 19th century and brick houses from the end of the 19th century and the 1st quarter of the 20th century. The house and inn have not survived.

No. 44 is a house from an old Dutch homestead (farming buildings - demolished) situated in the eastern section of the village, on the northern side of the road, facing it with its ridge. The house was erected in the 1st quarter of the 20th century. It has a brick underpinning and a corner-notched log structure with boarded quoins. The structure is partially horizontally and partially vertically (lower part of the walls) boarded. The building has a vertically boarded gable, a queen post - purlin roof structure, and pantile roofing. The eastern elevation has 3 axes, while the southern -  5 axes with a central 3-axial porch. The gable has 4 axes with two windows enclosed by smaller rectangular windows and a decorative grid in the finial.
No. 2 is a house from a Dutch homestead (farming buildings - demolished) situated in the eastern section of the village, on the southern side of the road, facing it with its ridge. It was erected in 1868 and has a partially bricked log structure with boarded quoins, a brick underpinning, a vertically boarded gable, a queen post - purlin roof structure, asbestos tile roofing, and a half-timbered attic room in the northern roof slope. The interior has a 2-bay layout with wider northern bay, the large room in the northeastern corner, a black kitchen in the large room bay, and an L-shaped, bipartite hallway separating the residential and farming sections with 4 doors in the utility hallway. The gable (eastern) elevation has 3 axes and a 4-axial gable with two windows enclosed by skylights topped by segmented arches and a doubled form of a skylight above. The northern elevation has 6 axes with an entrance (with a contemporary veranda) in the 4 axis from the east and a 2-axial attic room above the entrance.
