Dąbkowo ( German  Schönaich ) is a village in the Polish Warmian-Masurian Voivodeship . It belongs to the rural community Godkowo (Göttchendorf) in the powiat Elbląski (Elbing district) .

Geographical location

The village is located in the historical region of East Prussia , west of the Passarge (Polish: Pasłęka), about 21 kilometers northeast of Pasłęk (Prussian Holland) and 34 kilometers east of Elbing .

history

The village, called Schönaich until 1945 , was incorporated into the newly established district of Döbern (today Dobry in Polish) in 1874, to which it was assigned until 1945; it thus belonged to the district of Prussian Holland in the administrative district of Königsberg in the Prussian province of East Prussia .

In 1910, 146 inhabitants were registered in Schönaich. Their number was 133 in 1933 and back to 146 in 1939.

Towards the end of the Second World War , the district was occupied by the Red Army in January 1945 . In the summer of 1945 Schönaich was placed under Polish administration by the Soviet occupying power, along with the southern half of East Prussia and all of West Prussia . The Poles introduced the Polish place name Dąbkowo for Schönaich . As far as the German local villagers had not fled, she was subsequently expelled from Schönaich by the local Polish administrative authority .

The village is now part of the Gmina Godkowo in the Elbląski powiat and has been part of the Warmian-Masurian Voivodeship since 1999 , previously part of the Elbląg Voivodeship .

traffic

The village is not far from a side road that connects Dobry (Döbern) with Łępno (Lomp) .

Until 1945 there was a connection to the railway line from Schlobitten (now Polish: Słobity) via Wormditt (Orneta) to Rastenburg (Kętrzyn) and Angerburg (Węgorzewo) via the Döbern railway station .

Religions

Evangelical

Before 1945 the majority of the population of Schönaich was Protestant . The village was parish in the parish Döbern (today Polish Dobry) and belonged to the parish of Prussian Holland (Pasłęk) in the church province of East Prussia of the Evangelical Church of the Old Prussian Union . Today Dąbkowo belongs to the Evangelical Lutheran parish in Pasłęk (Prussian Holland) , a branch of the parish in Ostróda (Osterode) in the Masurian diocese of the Evangelical Augsburg Church in Poland .
