Babrosty ( German  Babrosten ) is a village in the Polish Warmian-Masurian Voivodeship , which belongs to the Gmina Pisz (Johannisburg) in the Powiat Piski ( Johannisburg district ).

Geographical location

Babrosty is located in the eastern Warmian-Masurian Voivodeship, five kilometers east of the district town of Pisz ( German  Johannisburg ).

history

The small village called Babrostow around 1750, Jeissuck after 1785 and Jeiszag before 1818 was founded in 1538 with four Hufen and 15 acres according to Magdeburg law .

From 1874 to 1945 Babrosten was incorporated into the Groß Kessel district.

On December 1, 1910, 117 inhabitants were registered in the village. Their number rose to 150 by 1933 and amounted to 149 in 1939.

Due to the provisions of the Versailles Treaty , the population in the Allenstein voting area , to which Babrosten belonged, voted on July 11, 1920 on whether they would continue to belong to East Prussia (and thus to Germany) or join Poland. In Babrosten, 100 residents voted to remain with East Prussia, Poland did not cast any votes.

In 1945 Babrosten came with the entire southern East Prussia to Poland and received the Polish form of the name "Babrosty". Today the village is the seat of a Schulzenamt ( Polish Sołectwo ) and thus a locality within the urban and rural community Pisz (Johannisburg) in the Powiat Piski ( Johannisburg district ), until 1998 the Suwałki Voivodeship , since then assigned to the Warmia-Masurian Voivodeship.

Until 1945 Babrosten was parish in the Evangelical Church of Johannisburg in the Church Province of East Prussia of the Evangelical Church of the Old Prussian Union and in the Roman Catholic Church of Johannisburg in the Diocese of Warmia .
