Geographical location

Czukty is located in the northeast of the Warmian-Masurian Voivodeship, 13 kilometers northwest of the district town of Marggrabowa (colloquially also Oletzko, 1928–1945 Treuburg, Polish Olecko ).

history

The former farming village of Schugten was founded in 1560 and named after its founder Mickolay Schuchta von Chelchen. Duke Albrecht von Prussia, through the governor Christoph Glaubitz, prescribed 4 hooves to him, 40 hooves to be filled with interest farmers. In the following years there were different forms of name such as Czugkten (before 1785), Czuckten (after 1785) or Czukten (until 1948).

From 1874 to 1945 the village was incorporated into the Czychen District ( Polish: Cichy ), which - renamed Bolken District in 1938 - belonged to Oletzko District (1933–1945 Treuburg District) in the Gumbinnen district of the Prussian province of East Prussia .

In 1910 Czukten had 239 inhabitants. Their number decreased to 190 by 1933 and was still 165 in 1939.

Due to the provisions of the Versailles Treaty , the population in the Allenstein voting area , to which Czukten belonged, voted on July 11, 1920 on whether they would continue to belong to East Prussia (and thus Germany) or join Poland. In Czukten, 191 residents voted to remain with East Prussia, while Poland did not vote.

As a result of the war, the village, which was renamed Schuchten on June 3 (officially confirmed on July 16), 1938, with southern East Prussia, became part of Poland in 1945 and since then has had the Polish form of name Czukty . The village is now the seat of a Schulzenamt ( Polish Sołectwo ) within the rural community Kowale Oleckie in Powiat Olecki, until 1998 the Suwałki Voivodeship , since then part of the Warmia-Masurian Voivodeship.

Religions

Before 1945 Czukten was parish with its predominantly Protestant population in the parish of the church in Czychen (1938–1945 Bolken, Polish Cichy ) in the parish of Oletzko / Treuburg within the church province of East Prussia of the Evangelical Church of the Old Prussian Union . Since 1945 the evangelical church members of Czuktys belong to the parish in Gołdap (Goldap) , a branch parish of the parish in Suwałki in the diocese of Masuria of the Evangelical-Augsburg Church in Poland .

The Catholic church members were oriented to Marggrabowa (also Oletzko, 1928–1945 Treuburg, Polish Olecko ) in the Diocese of Warmia until 1945 . Since 1945 they belong to the parish of Cichy with a branch church in Sokółki (Sokolken , 1938–1945 Halldorf) in the diocese of Ełk (Lyck) of the Catholic Church in Poland .
