Górki (after 1945 Górka Pustka , German mountain ) is a small place in the Polish Warmian-Masurian Voivodeship and belongs to the rural community Barciany (Barten) in the powiat Kętrzyński ( Rastenburg district ).
Geographical location
Górki is located a few hundred meters south of the Polish-Russian state border with the Kaliningrad Oblast ( German Koenigsberg (Prussia) area ) in the northern center of the Warmia-Masurian Voivodeship . It is seven kilometers to the northwest to the former district town of Gerdauen (now in Russian Schelesnodoroschny ) and 25 kilometers to the south to today's district metropolis Kętrzyn ( German: Rastenburg ).
history
The former Berg Vorwerk was incorporated into the Arklitten manor district ( Arklity in Polish ) until September 30, 1928 , then to Molthainen (1938 to 1945 Molteinen , Mołtajny in Polish ) in the East Prussian district of Gerdauen until 1945 . In 1905 the place had 41 inhabitants.
When southern East Prussia was transferred to Poland in 1945 as a result of the war , the small town of Berg (directly on the border with the northern part of East Prussia transferred to Russia) was also affected. He received the Polish form of the name "Górka Pustka", later today's name "Górki". The current settlement ( Osada in Polish ) is now located in the rural municipality of Barciany (Barten) in the powiat Kętrzyński ( Rastenburg district ), until 1998 of the Olsztyn Voivodeship , since then it belongs to the Warmia-Masurian Voivodeship .
church
Until 1945 Berg was parish in the Protestant Church of Molthainen (1938 to 1945 Molteinen , Polish Mołtajny ) in the church province of East Prussia of the Church of the Old Prussian Union and in the Roman Catholic Church of St. Bruno Insterburg (today in Russian Chernyachovsk ) in the then diocese of Warmia .
Today Górki belongs on the Protestant side to the parish in Barciany, a branch of the Johanneskirche Kętrzyn in the Masuria diocese of the Evangelical-Augsburg Church in Poland and on the Catholic side to the parish of St. Anna Mołtajny in the current Archdiocese of Warmia .
traffic
Górki is on a side road that leads from Mołtajny to Duje (Doyen , 1938 to 1945 Dugen) . Before 1945, the road ran in a north-westerly direction via Posegnick ( Russian Sori , today desert in the Russian-side border area) to the district town of Gerdauen (Russian Schelesnodoroschny ).
Before 1945, a railway line from Barten ran as far as Gerdauen , where Berg formed a train station. The railway line was operated by the Rastenburger Kleinbahnen , but not reactivated after 1945, so that Górki is now without a rail connection.
