Borki ( German Borken ) is a village in the Polish Warmian-Masurian Voivodeship , which belongs to the rural community Świętajno (Schwentainen) in the Powiat Olecki ( Oletzko district , 1933-1945 Treuburg district ).
Geographical location
Borki is located on the west bank of the Haaszner See (1936–1938 Haaschner See , 1938–1945 Haschner See , in Polish Jezioro Łaźno ) in the northeast of the Warmian-Masurian Voivodeship , 21 kilometers northwest of the district town of Olecko (Marggrabowa , colloquially also Oletzko , 1928–1945 Treuburg ) .
history
The village, called Borcken after 1785 and Borken until 1945 , was founded after 1700. In 1874 it was incorporated into the newly established Haasznen district (1936–1938 Haaschnen , 1938–1945 Haschnen , Łaźne in Polish , no longer existent today) - the place was incorporated into Borken before 1903 - which was incorporated into the Rogonnen district before 1908 (Polish Rogojny) was replaced and belonged to the Oletzko district (1933–1945 Treuburg district) in the Gumbinnen administrative district of the Prussian province of East Prussia .
314 inhabitants were registered in Borken in 1910. Their number was 319 in 1933 and 298 in 1939.
On the basis of the provisions of the Versailles Treaty , the population in the Allenstein voting area , to which Borken belonged, voted on July 11, 1920 on whether they would continue to belong to East Prussia (and thus to Germany) or join Poland. In Borken, 233 residents voted to remain with East Prussia; Poland did not vote.
In 1945 Borken came in consequence of the war with the entire southern East Prussia to Poland and received the Polish form of the name Borki . Today there is a name connection with the three kilometers further northwest and already in the Gmina Kowale Oleckie (Kowahlen , 1938-1945 Reimannswalde) located smaller village Borki .
