geography

The village is located six kilometers east of the village of Wieliczki (Wielitzken , 1938–1945 Wallenrode) at the confluence of the voivodship road DW 661 coming from Kalinowo (Kallinowen , 1938–1945 Dreimühlen) to voivodship road DW 655 between Olecko (Marggrabowa , colloquially also Oletzko , 1928 –1945 Treuburg) and Suwałki . A railway line with the Cimochy train station also runs between the latter two cities.

history

The name of the place is derived from one of the town's founders in 1476 named Czymoch , which is a Slavic variant of the first name Timotheus.

May 27, 1874, as part of a Prussian one District Municipality Reform newly Wiersbowen ( Polish Wierzbowo ) in district Elk in the administrative district of Olsztyn formed. In addition to Wiersbowen, it included the communities of Groß Czymochen, Kiehlen , Millewen , Sanien , Soczien , Thurowen and the manor district of Czymochen.

On July 1, 1909, the municipality of Groß Czymochen and Gut Czymochen were reclassified from the district of Wierzbowen in the district of Lyck to the district of Oletzko and a short time later formed the independent district of Groß Czymochen. It was initially administered by the head of the Czymochen domain.

On December 1, 1910, there were 551 inhabitants in Groß Czymochen.

In 1918 Groß Czymochen got a train station connection to the newly built railway line between Marggrabowa (Oletzko) and Suwałki. Due to its location on the border with Poland and the associated rail border crossing, the importance of the village increased and the number of inhabitants continued to grow.

Due to the provisions of the Versailles Treaty , the population in the Allenstein voting area , to which Groß Czymochen belonged, voted on July 11, 1920 on whether it would continue to belong to East Prussia (and thus to Germany) or join Poland. In Groß Czymochen 419 residents voted to remain with East Prussia, Poland did not vote.

In 1925 the Czymochen estate was incorporated into Groß Czymochen.

Groß Czymochen was renamed Reuss on May 22, 1929 in the course of the Germanization of Masurian place names of Baltic or Slavic origin.

In 1933 there were 849 inhabitants in Reuss, in 1939 only 778.

After the end of the Second World War in 1945, the Reuss , which was part of the German Empire ( East Prussia ) , fell to Poland. The resident German population, if they had not fled, was largely expelled or resettled after 1945 and, in addition to the traditional Masurian minority, replaced by new citizens from other parts of Poland. The place Reuss was renamed Cimochy according to the Polish spelling of the historical place name.

From 1975 to 1998 Cimochy belonged to what was then the Suwałki Voivodeship , then in 1999 it joined the newly formed Warmian-Masurian Voivodeship .

In 2005 there were 456 residents in Cimochy.

Parish

In 1906, the Protestant parish of Groß Czymochen was founded under separation from the parish in Kallinowen (1938–1945 Dreimühlen, Polish: Kalinowo) . It had no patronage and in 1925 had about 2500 parishioners who lived in more than eight places in the districts of Oletzko (1933–1945 district of Treuburg) and Lyck . The parish belonged to the parish of Oletzko / Treuburg in the church province of East Prussia of the Evangelical Church of the Old Prussian Union .

Flight and expulsion of the local population made evangelical church work no longer possible after 1945. The parish went out. Today only a few Protestant church members live in the Cimochy region. They stick to the churches in Ełk (Lyck) and Suwałki in the Masuria diocese of the Evangelical Augsburg Church in Poland .
