As for many cities in Pomerania the history of Belgard / Białogard was ful of changes. (Kashubian/Pomeranian: Biôłogard) Today it is a town in Middle Pomerania, northwestern Poland with 24,399 inhabitants (2004). The name is a combination of two Slavic (Pomeranian/Kashubian) terms: biały for white and gard for city/town. The city was conquered by Boleslaus III of Poland in 1107. By the invitation of Bolesław III the Wrymouth and his vassal Wartisław I of Pomerania, Bishop Otto of Bamberg came with a mission to Pomerania in 1124. During the Thirty Years' War the town was plundered by the troops of the Holy Roman Empire and Sweden. After the death of the last Pomeranian Duke in 1637, and as a result of the Thirty Years' War, the Duchy of Pomerania was divided between Sweden and Brandenburg-Prussia. As Belgard, with all of Farther Pomerania, the town became part of Brandenburg in 1653 and became part of the Kingdom of Prussia in 1701. In 1724 Belgard was made the capital of a county in the Province of Pomerania, and after the administrative reorganization in 1815, the capital of Landkreis Belgard (Belgard county). Belgard became part of the German Empire in 1871.
During World War II, the Red Army occupied the town on March 4, 1945. According to the terms of the Potsdam Conference, after the end of the war the town once again became part of Poland.

Die Stadt Belgard in Pommern war im Deutschen Reich für die hier stationierten "Totenkopfreiter" (vordem Leibhusaren in Danzig) bekannt. Neben einer Serie Kleinschecks der Stadtsparkasse mit Stadtansichten gab die Stadt deshalb auch eine Serie mit Schlachtenbildern und eine Serie mit Uniformbildern aus. Die Idee der Kleinschecks hatte sich die Firma Flemming u. Wiskott A.G. aus Glogau in Schlesien als Deutsches Reichs-Gebrauchs-Muster (D. R. G. M.) schützen lassen, nachdem die Ausgabe von Notgeldscheinen verboten worden war, die durch die Serienscheinausgaben immer mehr Überhand genommen hatte. Der künstlerische Entwurf stammt von W.H. Lippert. Alle Kleinscheck-Serien von Belgard haben kein Datum, stammen aber wahrscheinlich aus dem Jahr 1922.
