history

The former Gutsdorf Batken was first mentioned in 1773. After 1785 Neu Bialla , after 1818 Budken and called Buttken until 1945 , the village was incorporated into the district of Bialla ( Biała Olecka in Polish ) in 1874, which - renamed the district of Billstein after 1903 - to the district of Oletzko (1933–1945 called Kreis Treuburg ) in the administrative district of Gumbinnen belonged to the Prussian province of East Prussia .

In 1910 a total of 77 inhabitants lived in Buttken. Their number rose to 272 by 1933 and was already 280 in 1939.

Due to the provisions of the Versailles Treaty , the population in the Allenstein voting area , to which Buttken belonged, voted on July 11, 1920 on whether they would continue to belong to East Prussia (and thus Germany) or join Poland. In Buttken, 40 people voted to remain with East Prussia, Poland did not vote.

On September 30, 1928, the manor districts of Buttken, Drosdowen (1938-1945 Drosten, Polish Drozdowo ) and Salzwedel ( Polish Drozdówko ) merged to form the new rural community Buttken.

With all of southern East Prussia , Buttken came to Poland in 1945 and received the Polish form of the name Budki . Today it is part of 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 .

Religions

Before 1945, the population of Buttken was predominantly of Protestant denomination and parish in the parish of the Mierunsken Church (1938–1945 Merunen, in Polish Mieruniszki ). It was part of the church district Oletzko / Treuburg in the church province of East Prussia of the Evangelical Church of the Old Prussian Union . The Catholic residents belonged to the parish in Marggrabowa (1928–1945 Treuburg, Polish Olecko ) in the Diocese of Warmia .

Today the Catholic church members of Budki belong to the parish Judziki (Judzicken , 1938-1945 Wiesenhöhe) in the diocese of Ełk (Lyck) of the Catholic Church in Poland . Evangelical church members are assigned to the church in Gołdap with the parish seat in Suwałki in the diocese of Masuria of the Evangelical Augsburg Church in Poland .
