history
Good Gergehnen
Gergehnen was founded by the Teutonic Order as the estate of a great free one .
In the 19th century Gergehnen had the status of an estate district . The manor district of Gergehnen (with large and small take) was subordinated to the district of Terpen in the district of Mohrungen in 1874 .
In 1898, the Glüer family, who owned the estate, officially accompanied Emperor Wilhelm II on his trip to the Holy Land .
Take big and small
Take was founded by the German Order as a Hakenzinsdorf. This village served as the official residence of a treasurer of the Christburg Commandery . Taking fell into desolation in the early modern age. The lands were incorporated into Gut Gergehnen, which established the Vorwerke Groß und Kleinhaben to manage them .
Chamber office take
Within the agricultural constitution of the Teutonic Order State , a chamber office had the function of controlling the Prussian hook interest villages by the chamberlain collecting the taxes to the Teutonic Order and dividing the labor services (group services) of the hook interest farmers. The Chamber Office was set up around 1300 and did not survive the end of the religious order in 1525. It was subordinate to the Commandery Christburg, which was replaced between 1466 and 1525 by the Main Office Prussian Mark.
The Hakenzinsdörfer Ankern, Bandtken, Boditten, Bündtken , Kattern , Wollen, Plenkitten, Rombitten , (big and small) Smausien, Sorbehnen , Woritten and Zöpel, as well as the Hakenzins farmers in Gallinden, Maldeuten , Pothainen and Sassen belonged to the Chamber Office.
Gergehnen community
The Gergehnen manor district was dissolved through a territorial reform in 1928 and merged with the previous Mosens manor district to form the municipality of Gergehnen. The affiliation to the district of Terpen lasted until 1945. The municipality of Gergehnen had in 1933: 362 inhabitants and in 1939: 332 inhabitants.
Development after 1945
After incorporation into the Polish state, Gergehnen was renamed Girgajny and added to the newly formed Gmina Zalewo. The place is today the seat of a Schulzenamt without any other associated localities.
The two outworks Take Big and Take Small fell in ruins after 1945.
