history

The Vorwerk , then called Schieden and later Sydden , was first mentioned before 1580.

When the Wensöwen District ( Polish: Wężewo ) was established on May 27, 1874 , the Sydden manor district was incorporated. However, on August 3, 1874, the place gave up its independence and merged with the rural community Fritzendorf (no longer existent) and the Wensöwen manor district to form the new manor district Wensöwen-Sydden. Before 1881 it was renamed "Wensöwen" without the addition.

On May 30, 1914, the Wensöwen district was dissolved and the incorporated place Wensöwen (with the district Sydden ) was reclassified to the neighboring district of Statzen ( Stacze in Polish ). Like the Wensöwen district, it belonged to the Oletzko district - called "Treuburg district" from 1933 to 1945 - in the Gumbinnen district of the Prussian province of East Prussia .

Sydden was renamed "Sidden" in 1938. The place came to Poland in 1945 as a result of the war with southern East Prussia and has been called "Żydy" ever since. Today it is a small town within the rural community of Kowale Oleckie in the Powiat Olecki , until 1998 of the Suwałki Voivodeship , since then it has belonged to the Warmian-Masurian Voivodeship .
