history
Originally this Prussian landscape was inhabited by the pagan Prussians ( Pomesania ). After Christianization by the Teutonic Order , it belonged to the Teutonic Order State . After the Battle of Tannenberg (1410) and the Second Peace of Thorn in 1466, the region became part of the Duchy of Prussia . After the partition of Poland from 1772 to 1793, the province of West Prussia was formed with Danzig as the capital.
The Commander of the Teutonic Order in Christburg Luther von Braunschweig left the location of the village to Andreas von Sommerau with the hand-held celebration in 1325 . The Hansdorf estate with its owner Sander von Rischkaw was first mentioned in a document in 1416. In the following centuries there were several owners. Around 1850, Hansdorf was a Princely Reuss domain that was leased, but belonged to the owner family until 1945. In 1864 Hansdorf and the neighboring Raudnitz formed an estate district in which 234 residents lived.
The Rosenberg district was formed in April 1818 and existed until the beginning of 1945. In 1871, Hansdorf was a rural community with 57 households and 276 residents. In May 1874 the Raudnitz district was formed with the Hansdorf rural community. In the vote in the Marienwerder voting area on July 11, 1920, all 107 residents eligible to vote voted for Germany. In 1905 there were 154 inhabitants in Hansdorf and 308 in 1938. The last tenant in Hansdorf was the Oberamtmann Bamberg.
Towards the end of the Second World War , Hansdorf was occupied by the Red Army after January 21, 1945 . In the summer of 1945 Hansdorf was placed under Polish administration by the Soviet occupying power in accordance with the Potsdam Agreement, along with all of West Prussia and the southern half of East Prussia . The Polish place name Ławice was introduced for Hansdorf . As far as the residents had not fled, they were expelled from Hansdorf in the following time .
From 1975 to 1998 the village of Ławice was in the Olsztyn Voivodeship and since 1999 it has belonged to the Warmian-Masurian Voivodeship .
