history

Local history

The founding privilege of the village center of Kannwiesen (after 1785 Kanwiese , after 1820 Kannwiese ) was issued on October 3, 1767 and confirmed by the king on October 24. 23 farmers were given land as cask rights . However, the settlers had to undertake to build a house, a stable and a barn within five years. While construction of the buildings was progressing well, economic development was less favorable. In 1783 the peasants' financial situation is called “poor”.

In 1788 the village acquired several pieces of land from the Korpeller forest. This enlargement of the area provided more pasture land and resulted in a noticeable expansion of cattle breeding in the 1790s . Problems caused by the flooding of the Omulef in the 1850s .

On July 16, 1874, Kannwiesen became an official village and thus gave its name to an administrative district . It existed until 1945 and was part of the district Szczytno in the Administrative district Königsberg (1905: Administrative district Allenstein ) in the Prussian province of East Prussia . It initially comprised nine places, and ended up with eight.

In 1900 the rural community of Kannwiesen experienced a particularly serious accident: the homesteads of six farmers were destroyed by fire.

Kannwiesen had 299 inhabitants in 1910. Based on the provisions of the Versailles Treaty , the population in the Allenstein voting area , to which Kannwiesen belonged, voted on July 11, 1920 on whether it would continue to belong to East Prussia (and thus to Germany) or join Poland . In Kannwiesen, 195 people voted to stay with East Prussia, Poland did not.

In 1928 the water cooperative was founded to regulate the border stretch of the Orschütz river in the districts of Ortelsburg and Neidenburg and ensured good success, as the economic upswing increased in the following years.

In 1933 Kannwiesen had 227 inhabitants, in 1939 196 inhabitants.

In 1945, as a result of the war, the whole of southern East Prussia and with it Kannwiesen were transferred to Poland . The village received the Polish form of the name "Kanwizy", which was changed in 1948 to "Chwalibogi". The place in the area of ​​today's urban and rural community Wielbark (Willenberg) in the Powiat Szczycieński was initially still settled in the years following the war, but was then abandoned. Today, the location is hardly recognizable and is considered to be desolate.
