Jerzwałd (German Gerswalde ) is a village in the Warmian-Masurian Voivodeship in north-eastern Poland. The place belongs to Gmina Zalewo in Powiat Iławski .
geography
Jerzwałd is located in the moraine landscape of the Oberland , about ten kilometers southwest of Zalewo. The area is part of the Eylauer Seenplatte Landscape Protection Park , whose office is in Jerzwałd. The place is on the north bank of the Jezioro Płaskie ( Flachsee ), a bulge of the Geserichsee . Its district is bordered in the northeast by the Jezioro Rucewo Małe ( Kleiner Rotzung-See ), in the east by a stream that drains the Kleiner Rotzungsee into the Flachsee and in the west by a large forest area (the former state forest of Alt Christburg ).
history
Gerswalde was founded by the Teutonic Order as the court of a great free one . The estate fell into desolation in the early modern times and was repopulated in 1707 as a so-called Schatulldorf.
In 1874 an administrative district of Gerswalde was formed in the district of Mohrungen . The rural communities of Gerswalde, Motitten and Schwalgendorf and the manor districts of Bukowitz, Lixainen and Rotzung belonged to it. After the estate districts in Prussia were dissolved, the administrative districts included the rural communities of Gerswalde, Motitten and Schwalgendorf with almost unchanged external borders.
In 1928 the rural community Rotzung and the manor district Lixainen were incorporated into the rural community of Gerswalde, and in 1929 the property of the Gerswalde forestry department was also incorporated. The new municipality of Gerswalde had 1,068 inhabitants in 1933 and 1,028 inhabitants in 1939.
Development since 1945
After the incorporation into the Polish state, Gerswalde was renamed Jerzwałd and added to the newly formed Gmina Zalewo. Between 1954 and 1973 Jerzwałd was directly subordinate to the powiat morąski as Gromada and was then reintegrated into Gmina Zalewo. Jerzwałd is the seat of a Schulzenamt of Gmina Zalewo, to which Likaszny ( Lixainen ) and Rucewo ( Snot ) belong. The place is the starting point for circular hiking trails and has a jetty.
