history

The small village of Schnittken was mentioned in 1785 as a royal farm and seat of a domain office with eight fireplaces. Time were incorporated throughout the villages Inulzen (1938-1945 Neufasten , Polish Inulec ), small Schnittken (Polish Śmietki Mały ) and Schnittkermühle. On April 30, 1874, the Gutsgebiet Schnittken estate was incorporated into the Pfeilswalde district ( Pilnik in Polish , no longer existent), which existed until 1945 and belonged to the Sensburg district in the Gumbinnen district (from 1905: Allenstein district ) in the Prussian province of East Prussia . In 1910, Schnittken had 88 inhabitants, in 1933 there were already 268 and in 1939 there were 274.

Due to the provisions of the Versailles Treaty , the population in the Allenstein voting area , to which Schnittken belonged, voted on July 11, 1920 on whether they would continue to belong to East Prussia (and thus to Germany) or join Poland. In Schnittken, 60 residents voted to remain with East Prussia, Poland did not receive any votes.

On September 30, 1928, the Gutsbezirk Schnittken in the rural community Inulzen (1938-1945 Neufasten , Polish Inulec ) incorporated simultaneously renamed the rural community in Inulzen "Schnittken".

When the whole of southern East Prussia was transferred to Poland in 1945 as a result of the war , Schnittken was now also affected. The village was given the Polish form of the name "Śmietki" and is now part of the municipality of Mikołajki (Nikolaiken) in the Powiat Mrągowski ( Sensburg district ), until 1998 of the Suwałki Voivodeship , since then it belongs to the Warmia-Masurian Voivodeship .
