history

The now abandoned settlement ( Osada in Polish ) was founded in 1867 as a Vorwerk . Until 1945 it was a village in the area of ​​the municipality Kröligkeim (Polish: Krelikiejmy ) in the district of the same name in the East Prussian district of Gerdauen . In 1905 Angelika had 32 inhabitants.

As a result of the war, Angelika came to Poland in 1945 along with all of southern East Prussia and received the Polish form of the name "Anielin".

→ Geographical location of the Anielin Gradowo train station

A few kilometers northeast of Anielin existed between 1957 and 2007 the railway station "Anielin Gradowo". It was the starting point of the railway line 205 to Wielewo (-Schelesnodoroschny) of the Polish State Railways (PKP) , which was created between 1952 and 1956 for military and later also civil trade purposes between the People's Republic of Poland and the Soviet Union and was used from January 1, 1957. Anielin Gradowo was the reloading station; because from here the railroad ran on a single track and with a gauge of 1524 cm. After Anielin Gradowo, a branch line only a few kilometers long led from the Posen – Toruń – Skandawa (–Schelesnodoroschny) railway near Modgarby (Modgarben) .

On March 14, 2007, the Anielin Gradowo train station was closed. Most of the track systems are still there and are used sporadically for freight traffic.
