Rewahl was originally a small fishing and farming village. In 1784 there was a half-peasant, a tavern, a schoolmaster, 14 fisherman's cottages and 17 fire pits. [4] Some of the fisherman's cottages belonged to the noble estate Hoff. [5] The parish of Rewahl was parish in the parish of Hoff of the Cammin Synod.
The place is surrounded by fertile fields and gardens on a high grassy clay bank. It evolved over time into a simple, modest seaside resort. The water of the Baltic Sea is extremely clean here, the local microclimate is good, the air contains large amounts of iodine and is not polluted. From the steep bank lead stairs to the wide sandy beach.
In 1896 the narrow-gauge railway from Greifenberg to the seaside resort Horst was built. The track width was up to 1900 750 mm. After that it was changed to 1000 mm. In 1913 the railway line was extended via Broitz to Treptow on the Rega.
Towards the end of the Second World War, the region was conquered by the Red Army in the spring of 1945 and then - like all of Pomerania - placed under Polish administration. There was an immigration of Poles who seized the homes and property of the German civilian population. In the period until about 1947, the Germans were expelled from their place due to the Bierut decrees. The name of the German village Rewahl was changed to Rewal.
In 1991 and 1996, the southern railway line was closed and in 1999 also the fragment of the western line from Pogorzelica (Fischerkaten) to Trzebiatów (Treptow). After a major refurbishment of the Gryfice-Pogorzelica line, there will once again be a heritage railway operation along newly renovated station buildings. In Rewal municipality there are five railway stations of "Nadmorska Kolej Wąskotorówka": Trzęsacz, Rewal, Śliwin, Niechorze and Pogorzelica.
