This article appears in Volume V25, Page 955 of the Encyclopedia Britannica.

Encyclopedia Britannica - Main :: STE-SUS
STOLP, or STOLPE , a town of Germany, in the Prussian province of
Pomerania
 , on the Stolpe, so m. from the Baltic Sea and 64 m. W. of Danzig on the railway to Stargard, and with branches to Stolpmunde and Neustettin. Pop. (1905), 31,154. The large church of St Mary, with a lofty tower, dating from the 14th century, the Renaissance castle of the 16th century, now used as a prison, and one of the ancient town-gates restored in 1872 are memorials of the time when Stolp was a prosperous member of the Hanseatic League. It has also the church of St John, built in the 13th century, a new town
hall
 , and a statue of Bismarck. The manufacture of machinery, amber articles, tobacco and cigars, and bricks, with some iron-
founding
 , linen-weaving, and salmon-fishing in the Stolpe, are the
chief
  industrial occupations of the inhabitants, who also carry on
trade
  in
grain
 , cattle, spirits, timber, fish and geese. Stolpmunde, a fishing-
village
  and summer resort, at the mouth of the river, is the port of Stolp.
Stolp, mentioned in the rrth century, received town rights in 1273. From the 14th to the 16th century it was a member of the Hanseatic League. Until 1637, when it passed to Brandenburg, the town wds generally in the possession of the dukes of
Pomerania
