history

Steinberg was founded in 1852 and originally consisted of just one large farm. The "dismantling of Steinberg" was initially a residential area of Beutnerdorf (Polish : Bartna Strona ) in the East Prussian district of Ortelsburg . In 1905 it had 23 residents in three houses. Beutnerdorf was incorporated into the municipality of Ortelsburg on July 1, 1913, so Steinberg was a part of this city until 1945.

As a result of the war, Steinberg came to Poland in 1945 with all of southern East Prussia and received the Polish form of the name "Kamionek". Today the hamlet (Polish Osada ) is a place within the rural community Szczytno (Ortelsburg) in the powiat Szczycieński ( Ortelsburg district ), until 1998 the Olsztyn Voivodeship , since then it belongs to the Warmia-Masurian Voivodeship .

Kamionek's ecclesiastical connection to the city of Szczytno still exists today - within the current Catholic Archdiocese of Warmia and the Masurian Diocese of the Evangelical Augsburg Church in Poland .
