Choszczewo ( German  Choszewen (A) , 1936 to 1945 Hohensee ) is a village in the Polish Warmian-Masurian Voivodeship . It belongs to the rural community Sorkwity ( German  Sorquitten ) in the powiat Mrągowski ( Sensburg district ).

Geographical location

Choszczewo is located on the east bank of the Allmoyer See ( Jezioro Jelmuń in Polish ) in the heart of the Warmian-Masurian Voivodeship , 14 kilometers west of the district town of Mrągowo ( German Sensburg ).  

history

The 1785 Chostzewen , after 1871 Chosczewen A (or B ), after 1888 Choszczewen A (or B ) and 1935 to 1936 Choszewen place indicated consisted initially of the village and an estate. In 1838 the community of Choszewen was divided into the places A and B , which existed next to the Choszewen manor.

On April 8, 1874, an administrative district Choszewen was formed, to which the communities Choszewen A and Choszewen B and the manor district of Choszewen were incorporated. Renamed in 1936 to “Hohensee District”, it existed until 1945 and belonged to the Sensburg district in the Gumbinnen district (from 1905: Allenstein district ) in the Prussian province of East Prussia .

In 1910 the three places had a total of 521 inhabitants, who were divided into Choszewen A = 285, Choszewen B = 142 and Choszewen Gut = 94.

Due to the provisions of the Versailles Treaty , the population in the Allenstein voting area , to which Choszewen belonged, voted on July 11, 1920 on whether they would continue to belong to East Prussia (and thus to Germany) or join Poland. In Choszewen (A, B and Gut), 400 residents voted to remain with East Prussia, while Poland received no votes.

On September 30, 1928 the manor district Choszewen lost its independence and was incorporated into the rural community Choszewen A with the Vorwerk Johannisthal ( Polish Janiszewo ). On January 1, 1936, Choszewen B gave up its independence and was subdivided into Choszewen A, which since October 1, 1935 was only called "Choszewen". On April 22, 1936, the Choszewen community that had grown in this way was given the new name "Hohensee".

In 1945, as a result of the war, all of southern East Prussia was transferred to Poland . In this context, Choszewen resp. Hohensee, the Polish form of the name "Choszczewo", is now the seat of a Schulzenamt ( Polish Sołectwo ) and as such a place in the rural community Sorkwity (Sorquitten) in the powiat Mrągowski ( Sensburg district ), until 1998 the Olsztyn Voivodeship , since then the Warmia-Masurian Voivodeship associated. In 2011 Choszczewo had 399 inhabitants.
