Góry ( German  Gurren ) is a place in the Polish Warmian-Masurian Voivodeship and belongs to the rural community Budry (Buddern) in the powiat Węgorzewski ( Angerburg district ).

Geographical location

Góry is located in the northeast of the Warmian-Masurian Voivodeship , two kilometers south of the Polish-Russian border . The district town of Węgorzewo (Angerburg) is ten kilometers to the south.

history

Today's village of Góry is made up of three initially independent places, which then joined together to form a municipality. They are:

  • Alt Gurren ( Polish Stare Góry ), consisting only of a small homestead, with 53 inhabitants in 1910,
  • Neu Gurren (Nowe Góry), consisting of a few homesteads, with 122 inhabitants in 1910,
  • Noble Gurren (Góry), estate, with 44 inhabitants in 1910.

In 1874 all three places to the recently completed came consular district Lingwarowen ( Polish Łęgwarowo ) in the district Darkehmen in Administrative district Gumbinnen the Prussian province of East Prussia .

On August 10, 1876, all three places were reclassified from the Lingwarowen district in the Darkehmen district to the Olschöwen district (Polish: Olszewo Węgorzewskie) in the Angerburg district.

The new rural community Gurren was formed from Alt Gurren and Neu Gurren on April 28, 1927 , and on September 30, 1928 the manor district Adlig Gurren was included. On October 17, 1928, the neighboring estate district Klimken (in Polish: Klimki) from the district of Brosowen (Brzozowo) was added.

The total number of inhabitants in the rural community of Gurren was 354 in 1933 and rose to 403 by 1939.

As a result of the war, the place came to Poland in 1945 along with all of southern East Prussia and since then has had the Polish name "Góry". Today it is the seat of a Schulzenamt (Polish Sołectwo) and a village in the rural community Budry (Buddern) in the powiat Węgorzewski ( Angerburg district ), before 1998 the Suwałki Voivodeship , since then part of the Warmia-Masurian Voivodeship .

Old, New and Noble Gurren and the rural community Gurren that grew out of them were parish up to 1945 in the Protestant Church of Olschöwen in the church province of East Prussia, the Church of the Old Prussian Union, and in the Catholic Church Zum Guten Hirten Angerburg in the Diocese of Warmia .

Today the Catholic residents of Góry belong to the parish of Olszewo Węgorzewskie in the diocese of Ełk (Lyck) of the Roman Catholic Church in Poland . The Protestant church members are assigned to the parish in Węgorzewo (Angerburg) , a branch parish of the parish Giżycko (Lötzen) in the diocese of Masuria of the Evangelical-Augsburg Church in Poland .
