Grodzisko ( German  Grodzisko , 1925 to 1938 Schloßberg , 1938 to 1945 Heidenberg ) is a village in the Polish Warmian-Masurian Voivodeship and belongs to the rural community of Banie Mazurskie (Benkheim) in the powiat Gołdapski ( Goldap district ).

Geographical location

Grodzisko is located in the northeast of the Warmian-Masurian Voivodeship , 19 kilometers east of the former district town of Angerburg ( Polish Węgorzewo ) and 22 kilometers southwest of the current district capital Gołdap (Goldap) .

history

In 1566 the village of Heidenberg (as its name was already back then) was founded. Before 1785 the place was called Grodzisken , then until 1925 Grodzisko , and between 1925 and 1938 Schloßberg , from 1938 to 1945 again Heidenberg .

On May 6, 1874, Grodzisko became an official village and gave its name to an administrative district . This - in 1926 in the "District of Schloßberg", renamed in 1939 as "District of Heidenberg" - belonged until 1945 to the district of Angerburg in the administrative district of Gumbinnen in the Prussian province of East Prussia .

450 inhabitants were registered in Grodzisko in 1910. Their number rose to 566 by 1933 for the "Schloßberg", named from August 26, 1925, and in 1939 for the village renamed "Heidenberg" on June 3, 1938, to 540. On April 1, 1938 the neighboring village of Gassöwen (1938 to 1945 Heidenberg B, Polish Gąsewo) incorporated into Schloßberg.

As a result of the war, the place came to Poland in 1945 along with all of southern East Prussia and has now changed its name to the earlier and Polish form of the name “Grodzisko”. Today the village is the seat of a Schulzenamt ( Polish Sołectwo ) and a place in the network of the rural community Banie Mazurskie in the powiat Gołdapski , before 1998 part of the Suwałki Voivodeship , since then it belongs to the Warmia-Masurian Voivodeship .
