Place name

The origin of the place name is uncertain

  • from * zabin , Old Slavic for frog , cf. polish żabin
  • from a male Prussian personal name Sabine

Before 1931, the place name Adlig Szabienen was used to distinguish it from Königlich Szabienen (Polish: Stary Żabin).

history

Klein Szabienen was mentioned for the first time in 1539. Between 1565 and 1570 the first church was built, which was initially responsible for the entire southern part of the Darkehmen district. In 1657 the village and the whole surrounding area were hit by Tatar raids and the church was destroyed. During the great plague of 1709/1710 at least half of the village died. In the period that followed, new settlers came to the abandoned area, including Lithuanians and Masurians, later also Swiss , Neuchâtel , Graubünden and Palatinate people and Halberstadt people . In the autumn of 1807 and also in 1808 the red dysentery raged , and again numerous people died in the village.

In 1818 there were 136 inhabitants in Klein Szabienen, the number of which increased to 233 by 1863. In 1874 Klein Szabienen became the district village of Szabienen. In 1910 it had 204 inhabitants.

On November 24, 1931, Klein Szabienen received the changed spelling of the place name "Klein Schabienen". The population was 196 in 1933, and 212 six years later.

In the politically and ideologically motivated wave of renaming on June 3, 1938 - officially confirmed on July 16, 1938 - Klein Schabienen was given the new name "Kleinlautersee" and until 1945 belonged to the Darkehmen district (1938–1946 Angerapp ) in the Gumbinnen administrative district of the Prussian province of East Prussia .

As a result of the Second World War , Kleinlautersee became Polish and now belongs to the Gmina Banie Mazurskie in the powiat Gołdapski of the Warmian-Masurian Voivodeship (1975-1998 Suwałki Voivodeship ) as a district with a Schulzenamt . A little more than 200 residents live here.
