history

The oldest news about the place Czayken comes from the year 1729 (at that time without the addition). On March 29 of that year, Friedrich Kiwitt received small parts of the forest, "otherwise of no use, for raw dung." A new hand-held celebration for the establishment of the site was issued on December 6, 1736.

In 1874, Alt Czayken was incorporated into the newly established district of Liebenberg ( Polish clone ) in the East Prussian district of Ortelsburg .

In 1910 there were 195 inhabitants registered in Alt Czayken, in 1933 there were already 182. Due to the provisions of the Versailles Treaty , the population voted in the referendums in East and West Prussia on July 11, 1920 on the continued state membership in East Prussia (and thus to Germany) or the connection to Poland. In Alt Czayken, 148 residents voted to remain with East Prussia, while Poland did not receive any votes.

On October 9, 1933, Alt Czayken was renamed "Alt Kiwitten" for political and ideological reasons to defend against foreign-sounding place names. In 1939 the population was only 148.

Alt Kiwitten was transferred to Poland in 1945 as a result of the war, along with all of southern East Prussia . The small village was given the Polish form of the name "Stare Czajki" and is today - with the seat of a Schulzenamt ( Sołectwo in Polish ) - a village in the Świętajno rural community (Schwentainen , 1938 to 1945 Altkirchen (Eastern Pr.)) In the Szczycieński powiat ( Ortelsburg district ) , until 1998 of the Olsztyn Voivodeship , since then part of the Warmian-Masurian Voivodeship . In 2011 Stare Czajki had 83 inhabitants.
