history

In 1386, the small town, called Gelbisch before 1785, was founded and was a suburb in the Karschau estate (in Polish : Karszewo ). The Gutsbezirk Karschau belonged to its integration into the rural community Karschau in 1928 for District Dönhofstädt (Polish Drogosze ) in the county Rastenburg in Administrative district Königsberg within the Prussian province of East Prussia . On May 23, 1929, the former Karschau estate with the yellowsch suburb was reclassified into the Korschen district (in Polish : Korzse ).

As a result of the war, Gelbsch was transferred to Poland with all of southern East Prussia in 1945 and received the Polish form of name "Giełpsz". The hamlet ( Przysiółek in Polish ) is attached to Karszewo (Karschau) and is part of the urban and rural municipality of Korsze (Korschen) in the powiat Kętrzyński ( Rastenburg district ), until 1998 of the Olsztyn Voivodeship , since then of the Warmia-Masurian Voivodeship .
