Geographical location

history

Dlugossen was founded around 1480. From 1874 to 1945 the village was in the District Wischniewen (from 1938 District Kölmersdorf incorporated) that the county elk in Administrative district Gumbinnen (1905 Government district Allenstein ) in the Prussian province of East Prussia belonged. In 1910 Dlugossen had 430 inhabitants.

Due to the provisions of the Versailles Treaty , the population in the Allenstein voting area , to which Dlugossen belonged, voted on July 11, 1920 on whether they would continue to belong to East Prussia (and thus Germany) or join Poland. In Dlugossen, 280 people voted to stay with East Prussia, Poland did not vote.

On September 30, 1928, the rural community of Dlugossen expanded to include the neighboring Gutsdorf Kossewen (1938–1945 Hasenheide , Polish: Kosewo - no longer existent), which was incorporated. The population was 404 in 1933. On June 3 (officially confirmed on July 16) of the year 1938, Dlugossen was renamed Langheide for political and ideological reasons to avoid foreign-sounding place names . In 1939 the population was 348.

As a result of the war, the village came to Poland in 1945, along with all of southern East Prussia , and has since borne the Polish form of name Długosze . Today it is the seat of a Schulzenamt ( Polish Sołectwo ) and as such a place in the association of Gmina Prostki (Prostken) in the powiat Ełcki ( Lyck district ), until 1998 of the Suwałki Voivodeship , since then it belongs to the Warmia-Masurian Voivodeship .

Religions

Until 1945 Dlugossen was parish in the Evangelical Church Ostrokollen (1938-1945 Scharfenrade , Polish Ostrykół ) in the Ecclesiastical Province of East Prussia of the Evangelical Church of the Old Prussian Union and in the Roman Catholic Church of St. Adalbert in Lyck (Polish Ełk ) in the Diocese of Warmia .

Today Dłgosze belongs to the Catholic parish in Prostki (Prostken) in the diocese of Ełk of the Roman Catholic Church in Poland . The Protestant residents stick to the parish in the district town of Ełk ( German  Lyck ), a branch parish of the parish in Pisz (Johannisburg) in the Masurian diocese of the Evangelical-Augsburg Church in Poland .
