Chmielewo ( German  Chmielewen , 1938-1945 Talau ) is a village in the Polish Warmian-Masurian Voivodeship , which belongs to the Gmina Orzysz ( town and country municipality Arys ) in the powiat Piski ( Johannisburg district ).

Geographical location

Chmielewo is located in the eastern Warmian-Masurian Voivodeship, 22 kilometers northwest of the district town of Pisz ( German  Johannisburg ).

history

The village, called Chmielöwen after 1785, Chmielewen after 1820 and Chmielewen until 1938 , was founded in 1494.

From 1874 to 1945 the place belonged to the district of Eckersberg .

In the rural community of Chmielewen with the district of Neuendorf ( Nowa Wieś in Polish ) a total of 229 inhabitants were registered in 1910; in 1933 there were already 309.

On the basis of the provisions of the Versailles Treaty , the population in the Allenstein voting area , to which Chmielewen belonged, voted on July 11, 1920 on whether they would continue to belong to East Prussia (and thus Germany) or join Poland. In Chmielewen, 160 residents voted to remain with East Prussia, while Poland did not vote.

On June 3 (officially confirmed on July 16), 1938, the village was renamed Talau for political and ideological reasons to defend against foreign-looking place names . The population was 269 in 1939.

As a result of the war, the village came to Poland in 1945 along with all of southern East Prussia and was given the Polish form of name Chmielewo . Today the place is the seat of a Schulzenamt (Polish Sołectwo ) and thus a place in the network of the city and rural community Orzysz (Arys) in Powiat Piski ( Johannisburg district ), until 1998 the Suwałki Voivodeship , since then part of the Warmia-Masurian Voivodeship .

church

Chmielewen was parish in the Evangelical Church of Eckersberg in the church province of East Prussia of the Evangelical Church of the Old Prussian Union and in the Roman Catholic Church Johannisburg ( Pisz in Polish ) in the Diocese of Warmia .

Today, on the Catholic side, Chmielewo belongs to the parish Okartowo in the Diocese of Ełk of the Roman Catholic Church in Poland . The Protestant residents stick to the parish of Pisz in the Masuria diocese of the Evangelical-Augsburg Church in Poland .
