geography

Galiny is located in the north-west of the Warmian-Masurian Voivodeship, in the center of Stablack and only a thousand meters south of the Polish-Russian border. The small town can only be reached on a very impassable road that leads via Sągnity (Sangnitte) , Augamy (Augam) and Kiwajny (Quehnen) and before 1945 continued into today's Russian Bogatowo (Rositten) and Pogranitschnoje (Hussehnen) .

A rail connection via the Sągnity (Sangnitte) station no longer exists since the PKP line No. 224 from Czerwonka (Rothfließ) to Sągnity - part of the former German Reichsbahn line from Lower Lake (now in Polish: Ruciane) to Zinten (today in Russian : Kornewo) - was finally shut down in 2007.

history

The place once called Gallingen did not exist - at least not under this name - in the time of the order . Other names of villages are given for this time, but all of them have perished.

When the parish Kanditten (now Polish: Kandyty) was re-established in 1575, the place called Gelinden was already part of it. This name was in use until around 1850. The village was probably re-established with the resettlement of Rositten (today Russian: Bogatowo) around 1558. When it was a little managed, it was pawned around 1619 with Rositten (Bogatowo) and Hussehnen (today in Russian: Pogranitschnoje) to Wolf Heinrich Truchseß von Waldburg auf Wildenhoff and in 1627 it became a noble, subservient village of Wildenhoff (today in Polish: Dzikowo Iławeckie) .

In 1785 had mild six fireplaces and went a little later in the possession of the manor Robitten (today Polish: Robity) over that of the previous farming village a Vorwerk made, had the 1831 three residential buildings and 54 residents.

In the following period the Vorwerk Gallingen was sold and became an independent estate. In 1871 90 inhabitants lived here in 16 households and 5 houses. In 1874 the Gallingen manor district was incorporated into the newly established Wildenhoff district (Dzikowo Iławeckie). It was in the district of Preußisch Eylau and in the administrative district of Königsberg in the Prussian province of East Prussia . On August 18, 1881, Gallingen was reclassified to the district of Rositten (Bogatowo) belonging to the same district .

In 1907 a Hans Sperling was named as the owner of the manor with Forst Gallingen. He sold the estate to Max Johnen , and a large part of the forest went to the Wildenhoff estate (Dzikowo Iławeckie). In 1910, 68 people lived in Gallingen.

On September 30, 1928, the Gallingen estate and its private forest house became independent: Without a quarry (which came to Wildenhof at the same time), Gallingen became part of the rural community of Rositten (Bogatowo). The Johnen family sold the estate to the Thiel family around 1933 , and a large part went to the military treasury for the construction of the Stablack military training area .

Gallingen was occupied by Red Army troops around February 12, 1945 and handed over to Poland in the summer of the same year . Since then, Gallingen has had the Polish name Galiny . Today the place is part of the rural community Górowo Iławeckie (Landsberg) and belongs to the Schulzenamt Kiwajny (Quehnen) . The village has moved from the Preussisch Eylau district to the Powiat Bartoszycki ( Bartenstein district ) and is located in the Warmian-Masurian Voivodeship (1975-1998 Olsztyn Voivodeship ).

Religions

Before 1945, the population of Gallingen was almost exclusively of the Protestant denomination. The village was in the existing already in pre-Reformation time parish (Polish today: Kandyty) Kanditten the parish and therefore belonged to the parish of Preußisch Eylau (now Russian: Bagrationowsk) in the ecclesiastical province of East Prussia the Protestant Church of the Old Prussian Union . The last German clergyman was Pastor Wilhelm Arnold Freyer . Catholics living in Gallingen at that time were incorporated into the parish Prussian Eylau (Bagrationowsk).

Since 1945 the majority of the inhabitants of Galiny belong to the Catholic Church. The village is still incorporated into the parish (Parafia) Kandyty, which now belongs to the deanery Górowo Iławeckie (Landsberg) in the Archdiocese of Warmia of the Catholic Church in Poland . Evangelical church members living here now belong to the parish of Bartoszyce (Bartenstein) . It is a branch of the church in Kętrzyn (Rastenburg) in the Masuria diocese of the Evangelical-Augsburg Church in Poland .
