Koszelewy [ kɔʃɛˈlɛvɨ ] ( German Groß Koschlau , 1939–45 Koschlau ) is a village in the municipality of Rybno ( Ribno ) in the Polish Warmian-Masurian Voivodeship .
Geographical location
The village is located in the historical region of East Prussia , about nine kilometers northeast of the town of Lautenburg ( Lidzbark ), 18 kilometers northwest of the town of Soldau ( Działdowo ) and 63 kilometers southwest of Allenstein ( Olsztyn ).
history
The place was first mentioned in a document in 1328 as Kosel . There was a church in the village even before the Reformation. In 1410 during a war of the Teutonic Order , the place was destroyed. In 1579 a Protestant school was opened. During the 17th century a country seat was probably built for hunting.
In 1774 the place was significantly rebuilt, and a year later, District Administrator Samuel Sigismund von Haubitz (1724–1795) had a manor house built on his Gut Koschlau. In 1785 Groß Koschlau is described as a noble village with a mill, a branch church from Heinrichsdorf and 25 fireplaces (households) . Haubitz is and that belongs to the Gilgenburg Domain Office district. Around the middle of the 19th century, the estate was owned by the captain a. D. Karl Christian Kraatz, who was raised to the nobility on August 19, 1857.
In the spring of 1874 the district of Groß Koschlau was formed; it was composed of:
- Gut Wansen with Vorwerk Nicponi
- Wansen municipality
- Work well with a mill
- Municipality of Prussia
- Neudorf
- Gut Groß Koschlau with Vorwerk Friedrichshoff
- Groß Koschlau community
- Good Grallau
- Community of Grallau with Drzasgen
- Murawken
- Gut Seeben with Vorwerk Marienhain
- Seeben municipality
The head of office was the tenant Mebus in Wansen.
On June 22, 1874, Kaiser Wilhelm I granted the district administration of the Neidenburg district the necessary permits for the expansion of the road from Neidenburg via Lissaken and Usdau to the future station in Koschlau on the Marienburg - Mława railway line .
At the beginning of the First World War , a battle took place here on August 26 and 27, 1914 during the Battle of Tannenberg .
After the end of the First World War, due to the provisions of the Versailles Treaty , Groß Koschlau had to be ceded to Poland on January 17, 1920 as part of the Soldau area for the purpose of establishing the Polish Corridor .
In 1934, the Polish state government unilaterally terminated the minority protection treaty concluded in Versailles on June 28, 1919 between the Allied and Associated Main Powers and Poland .
With the invasion of Poland in 1939, the removed territory became part of the Reich territory again, and Groß Koschlau first came to the district of Soldau and was later reorganized into the district of Neidenburg.
Towards the end of World War II , Koschlau was occupied by the Red Army on January 19, 1945 . In the summer of 1945 Koschlau was placed under Polish administration by the Soviet occupying power, along with the southern half of East Prussia and all of West Prussia . The Poles introduced the place name Koszelewy for Koschlau . Unless they had fled, the German villagers were subsequently expelled from Koschlau by the local Polish administrative authorities .
Former Protestant parish
The Protestant parish also included the following places: Fichtenwalde ( Drzazg ), Friedrichshof, Grallau ( Gralewo ), Klein Koschlau ( Koszelewki ), Marienhain ( Rapaty ), Marienhof ( Marynowo ), Murawken ( Murawki ), Seeben ( Żabiny ) and Tautschken ( Tuczki ) . Some of the pastors who worked here from the Reformation to the fourth quarter of the 18th century are known by name.
