Świdrówko is located south of Lake Rumet ( Jezioro Romoty in Polish ) in the east of the Warmian-Masurian Voivodeship , eleven kilometers west of the district town of Olecko (Marggrabowa , Treuburg from 1928 to 1945 ) .

history

The small town, written after 1818 Schwydrowken and later Schwidrowken , was until 1945 a district of the Orzechowken municipality (1925 to 1945 Nussdorf, Orzechówko in Polish ), which until 1908 was the seat of an administrative district and, like the successor administrative district of Schwentainen to the Oletzko district (1933 to 1945 Treuburg district) in the Gumbinnen administrative district of the Prussian province of East Prussia .

Schwidrowken essentially consisted of two courtyards that differed in size. Even before the turn of the 19th to the 20th century, the place was officially divided into "Schwidrowken I" (middle courtyard) and "Schwidrowken II" (large courtyard). On September 7, 1929, the names were based on the then prevailing political names The ideology of the emphasis on Germanness also changed to the place name and Schwidrowken I was renamed “Eduardsfelde” and Schwidrowken II was renamed “Wilhelmsruh”.

Both towns were in consequence of the war in 1945 with the entire southern East Prussia to Poland . Schwidrowken I (Eduardsfelde) received the Polish form of the name "Świdrówko", while Schwidrowken II (Wilhelmsruh) received the name "Świdrowo". The latter no longer exists, while the other is now a small village in the Świętajno (Schwentainen) rural community in the Olecki powiat ( Oletzko district , Treuburg district from 1933 to 1945 ), before 1998 the Suwałki Voivodeship , since then it has belonged to the Warmia-Masurian Voivodeship .
