Kolberg-Körlin (earlier spelling Colberg-Cörlin) was a Landkreis (county) in the Prussian Province of Pomerania between 1872 and 1945. Its territory roughly corresponds with modern Kołobrzeg County (Polish: Powiat Kołobrzeski) and the western parts of modern Białogard County (Polish: Powiat Białogardzki) with Karlino, the former Körlin.
Kolberg-Körlin comprised the village of Altstadt (now Budzistowo), a predecessor of nearby Kolberg founded before 1000 A.D. Other early settlements in the region are Pobloth and Zwilipp, both of which are first mentioned in 1159 according to the Pomeranian Urkundenbuch, and the localities Drosedow, Jarchow and Rützow, first mentioned in 1180 by the same source. Most of Kolberg–Körlin’s other municipalities have records dating back to the 13th Century.
Colberg-Cörlin was created on 1 September 1872 as a partition of Kreis Fürstenthum, the successor of the Principality of Cammin. It belonged to the government region (Regierungsbezirk) Cöslin (later Köslin) in the Prussian province of Pomerania, and comprised rural regions as well as the towns of Colberg and Cörlin. The county seat was in Colberg.
Following World War I, Colberg-Cörlin was renamed Kolberg-Körlin.
After Prussia was effectively absorbed into the Third Reich following the Preußenschlag, Prussia and its districts, like all other German states under Hitler, was stripped of all genuine powers and were reduced to mere administrative units.
In early 1945 at the end of World War II, Kolberg-Körlin was occupied by the Red Army. Shortly thereafter, as a result of the Potsdam Agreement, Kolberg-Körlin, along with the rest of the former Prussian lands east of the Oder-Neisse line, became Polish. Most of the German population was evacuated or expelled and the area was resettled by Poles.
The territory of former Kolberg-Körlin subsequently became part of the Sczcecin, Koszalin and West Pomeranian Voivodeships.
On 1 January 1945 the Landkries Kolberg-Körlin comprised the town of Körlin, with approximately 3,400 residents, and about 78 other communities with less than 2,000 inhabitants. In 1900, the county comprised the following municipalities and population:
