history

The small manor village, called noble Sansgarben before 1871, was called a "noble Vorwerk with 8 fireplaces" in 1785. On April 30, 1874, an administrative district called Sansgarben was newly established, which belonged to the East Prussian district of Rastenburg in the administrative district of Königsberg in the Prussian province of East Prussia . It consisted only of the Gutsbezirk Kudwinnen ( Polish Kudwiny but lacking the) Vorwerk was assigned Sans sheaves. It was not until 1892 that the Sansgarben manor district was formed from the Kudwinner Vorwerk Sansgarben.

On September 30, 1928, the two manor districts of Kudwinnen (with the Vorwerk Wargitten , Polish Wargity ) and Sansgarben merged to form the new rural community Sansgarben.

Sans sheaves came in 1945 in consequence of the war with the entire southern East Prussia to Poland and received the Polish form of the name "Gęsie Góry". As Osada (German settlement ), the place is now a small village in the community of Barciany (Barten) in the powiat Kętrzyński , until 1998 the Olsztyn Voivodeship , since then the Warmia-Masurian Voivodeship .
