Geographical location
The village is located 10 kilometers as the crow flies southwest of the village of Kalinowo and eleven kilometers east of the district town of Ełk (Lyck) on a country road leading from Sędki (Sentken) to Sypitki (Sypittken , Vierbrücken from 1938 to 1945 ) . It is located on the east bank of the Great Sellmentsee ( Jezioro Selmęt Wielki in Polish ).
history
The village of Loyen was founded in 1504 by internal migration from the Ordensburg Lyck .
On May 27, 1874, after a Prussian municipal reform in the Gumbinnen administrative district (from 1905: Allenstein district ), Lyck district , the Pissanitzen district ( Pisanica in Polish ) was created from the rural communities of Czybulken, Groß Lasken , Kulessen , Loyen, Makoscheyen , Pissanitzen , Ropehlen and Sieden .
On December 1, 1910, 57 residents were registered in Loyen.
Due to the provisions of the Versailles Treaty , the population in the Allenstein voting area , to which Loyen belonged, voted on July 11, 1920 on whether it would continue to belong to East Prussia (and thus Germany) or join Poland. In Loyen, 40 residents voted to remain with East Prussia, Poland did not vote.
In 1930, after the renaming of Pissanitzen in "Ebenfelde", the now eponymous district of Ebenfelde was reorganized and instead of the previous eight rural communities now only included the communities of Ebenfelde, Groß Lasken, Kulessen, Loyen, Makoscheyen and Sieden.
In 1933 there were 90 inhabitants in Loyen. In 1938 the official spelling of the village of Loyen was changed to "Loien", and in 1939 the village had only 80 inhabitants.
After the end of the Second World War in 1945, Loien , which was part of the German Empire ( East Prussia ), Lyck district , fell to Poland . The resident German population, if they had not fled, was largely expelled or resettled after 1945 and, in addition to the traditional Masurian minority, replaced by new citizens from other parts of Poland. The place Loien was renamed "Łoje" in the Polish translation of the place name.
From 1975 to 1998 Łoje belonged to what was then the Suwałki Voivodeship , then in 1999 it joined the newly formed Warmian-Masurian Voivodeship . Today the village is the seat of a Schulzenamt ( Polish Sołectwo ) and as such a place within the Gmina Kalinowo group .
Religions
Until 1945 Loyen was parish in the Protestant church Pissanitzen (1926 to 1945 Ebenfelde , Polish Pisanica ) in the church province of East Prussia of the Church of the Old Prussian Union and in the Roman Catholic Church of St. Adalbert in Lyck ( German Lyck ) in the Diocese of Warmia .
Today Łoje belongs to the Catholic parish Pisanica in the Diocese of Ełk of the Roman Catholic Church in Poland . The Protestant residents stick to the parish in the district town of Ełk , a branch parish of the parish Pisz (German Johannisburg ) in the Masuria diocese of the Evangelical Augsburg Church in Poland .
