Dłużec [ ˈdwuʐɛt͡s ] ( German  Langendorf ) is a place in the Polish Warmian-Masurian Voivodeship , which belongs to the rural community Piecki (whip village ) in the powiat Mrągowski ( Sensburg district ).

Geographical location

Dłużec is located in the southeast of the Warmian-Masurian Voivodeship on the east bank of the Jezioro Dłużec (Langendorfer See) , twelve kilometers south of the city of Mrągowo (Sensburg) .

A side road runs through the village, which connects Borowe (Borowen , 1938-1945 Prausken) on Voivodship Road 600 and Nawiady (Aweyden) on Landesstrasse 59 and Voivodship Road 601 . There is no train connection.

history

In 1874 the place was incorporated into the then newly established district of Gollingen (today in Polish Goleń); until 1945 he belonged to the district of Sensburg in the Olsztyn administrative district (today Olsztyn in Polish , until 1905 Gumbinnen district , today Russian: Gussew ) in the Prussian province of East Prussia . In 1910 the population was 586. In 1933 it was 568 and in 1939 it was 565.

Due to the provisions of the Versailles Treaty , the population in the Allenstein voting area , to which Langendorf belonged, voted on July 11, 1920 on whether it would continue to belong to East Prussia (and thus to Germany) or join Poland. In Langendorf, 400 residents voted to remain with East Prussia, Poland did not receive any votes.

As a result of the Second World War , Langendorf came to Poland and was given the Polish name Dłużec . In 1975 the place became part of the Olsztyn Voivodeship (Allenstein) ; with its dissolution in 1999 Dłużec became part of the Warmian-Masurian Voivodeship . Today the village is a locality and Schulzenamt ( Polish sołectwo ) in the Gmina Piecki (whip village ) in the Powiat Mrągowski .

church

Until 1934, Langendorf with its predominantly Protestant population was parish in the parish of Aweyden (now Nawiady in Polish), then until 1945 in the church of Peitschendorf . It belonged to the parish of Sensburg (Mrągowo) in the church province of East Prussia of the Evangelical Church of the Old Prussian Union . In the 1930s - similar to the one in Peitschendorf - a church building was planned in Langendorf, but this could no longer be realized before 1945.

Today the population of Dłużec is predominantly Catholic . Dłużec is now a separate parish as a subsidiary parish to the parish Grabowo (Grabowen , 1938-1945 Grabenhof) . She belongs to the deanery Mrągowo II in the Archdiocese of Warmia of the Catholic Church in Poland . Protestant church members living here belong to the newly established parish in Nawiady, which is now a subsidiary parish of Mrągowo in the Masurian diocese of the Evangelical Augsburg Church in Poland .
