Gudziki ( German  Godocken ) is a village in Poland in the Warmian-Masurian Voivodeship . It belongs to the Gmina Korsze ( urban and rural municipality Korschen ) in the powiat Kętrzyński ( Rastenburg district ).

geography

The village is located about seven kilometers southeast of Korsze (Korschen) and eleven kilometers northwest of the district town of Kętrzyn (Rastenburg) in the north of the Masurian Lake District .

history

Godocken , called Godoken after 1772, was localized in 1392 with ten Włóka in the Balga Commandery of the Teutonic Order and mentioned in 1429 as Gaudiken . The name refers to a Prussian named Gaude and derives from "gaudykla" (hunting ground of the trapper). Until the end of the 15th century it belonged to the Protestant parish Lamgarben ( Garbno in Polish ).

When in 1874 the district of Lamgarben was formed Godocken was incorporated and so belonged until 1945 to the county Rastenburg in the Prussian province of East Prussia .

At the end of January 1945 East Prussia was overrun by the Soviet front and the southern part was then placed under Polish administration. Godocken received the Polish form of the name "Gudziki". Through an administrative reform, the village came to the Olsztyn Voivodeship in 1975 . Since its dissolution, Gudziki has belonged to the Warmian-Masurian Voivodeship and is now the seat of a Schulzenamt ( Sołectwo in Polish ) within the urban and rural municipality of Korsze (Korschen) .
