Cedry Wielkie ( German Groß Zünder , previously also Groß Zinde (r) ; Kashubian Wiôldżé Cedrë ) is a village in the powiat Gdański of the Pomeranian Voivodeship in Poland . It is the seat of the rural community of the same name .
Geographical location
The village is located in the former West Prussia , about 15 kilometers east of Pruszcz Gdański (Praust) and 20 kilometers southeast of Gdansk .
history
The village belonged from 1818 to 1920 under the name Groß Zünder to the district of Danzig in the province of West Prussia of the Kingdom of Prussia (from the end of 1918 Free State of Prussia), from 1871 to the German Empire . Due to the provisions of the Versailles Treaty , which provided for the formation of the Free City of Danzig and the establishment of the Polish Corridor on West Prussian territory after the First World War , Groß Zünder came to the Free City of Danzig in 1920. After the invasion of Poland , Groß Zünder came, in violation of international law, to the district of Danzig in the administrative district of Danzig in the Reichsgau Danzig-West Prussia of the German Reich.
Towards the end of the Second World War , the region was occupied by the Red Army in the spring of 1945 . In the summer of 1945 the whole of West Prussia was placed under Polish administration together with the southern half of East Prussia . The Poles introduced the place name Cedry Wielkie for Groß Zünder . If the villagers had not fled, they were subsequently expelled from Groß Zünder by the local Polish administrative authorities .
