history

The foundation of the village Gorlen place in the year 1475. 1874 was it in the newly established District Old Jucha (1929-1938 "District Jucha" 1939 to 1945 "District floating village", Polish Stare Juchy incorporated), which existed until 1945 and the county Lyck in the Gumbinnen district (from 1905: Allenstein district ) in the Prussian province of East Prussia belonged. Between 1874 and 1945 Gorlen was also included in the Jucha registry office .

On December 1, 1910, 257 residents were registered in Gorlen, in 1933 there were 232.

Due to the provisions of the Versailles Treaty , the population in the Allenstein voting area , to which Gorlen belonged, voted on July 11, 1920 on whether it would continue to belong to East Prussia (and thus to Germany) or join Poland. In Gorlen, 200 residents voted to remain with East Prussia, Poland did not receive any votes.

On June 3 (officially confirmed on July 16) of the year 1938, the renaming of Gorlen to "Aulacken" took place for political and ideological reasons to defend against foreign-sounding place names . The population, however, decreased to 221 by 1939.

As a result of the Second World War , the village came to Poland in 1945 with all of southern East Prussia and received the Polish form of the name "Gorło". Today it is the seat of a Schulzenamt ( Polish Sołectwo ) and thus a village in the network of the rural community Stare Juchy ((old) Jucha , 1929 to 1938 Jucha , 1938 to 1945 Fließdorf) in the powiat Ełcki ( Lyck district ), until 1998 the Suwałki Voivodeship , since then part of the Warmia-Masurian Voivodeship .
