Geographical location

Kociołek Szlachecki is located on the north-west bank of the Kesselsee ( Polish Jezioro Kocioł ) in the eastern Warmian-Masurian Voivodeship, eleven kilometers north of the district town of Pisz ( German  Johannisburg ).

history

The village, called Klein Kessel until 1874 , was founded in 1555 as a freehold estate with three hooves under Cologne law .

The place belonged to the circle Johannesburg in Administrative district Gumbinnen (1905: Administrative district Allenstein ) in the Prussian province of East Prussia . From 1874 to 1945 it was incorporated into the Sdorren District (from 1938 "Dorren District").

In 1910 the Adlig Kessel estate had 134 inhabitants.

Due to the provisions of the Versailles Treaty , the population in the Allenstein voting area , to which Adlig Kessel belonged, voted on July 11, 1920 on whether they would continue to belong to East Prussia (and thus to Germany) or join Poland. In Adlig Kessel, 80 residents voted to remain with East Prussia, Poland did not cast any votes.

On September 30, 1928, the manor district of Adlig Kessel was converted into a rural community of the same name. The number of inhabitants was 132 in 1933 and 91 in 1939.

When southern East Prussia was transferred to Poland in 1945 as a result of the war , Adlig Kessel was also affected. The village received the Polish form of the name "Kociołek Szlachecki". Today it is the seat of a Schulzenamt ( Polish Sołectwo ) and thus a village in the network of the city and rural community Pisz (Johannisburg) in the Powiat Piski ( Johannisburg district ), until 1998 the Suwałki Voivodeship , since then part of the Warmia-Masurian Voivodeship .

Religions

Church building

In the years 1904 to 1906, the church in Adlig Kessel was built as a jubilee church in memory of the royal coronation in 1701 in Königsberg (Prussia) ( Russian: Kaliningrad ). It is a brick church in neo-Gothic style with a sideways tower. The interior is kept simple. A flat wooden ceiling covers the room painted by Karl Busch from Berlin . Until 1977, the building was a Protestant church and today - dedicated to the "Mother of God of Gietrzwałd" - the Catholic community serves as a parish church .

Parish

Evangelical

Since 1895 there was a parish in Adlig Kessel, which included a large parish . It belonged to the church district Johannisburg in the church province of East Prussia of the Church of the Old Prussian Union . In 1925 it had 2,793 parishioners. The escape and expulsion of the local population caused church life in Kociołek Szlachecki to collapse, even if the church building initially remained in the possession of the Evangelical Augsburg Church in Poland . The Masurian diocese of this church today includes the Protestant community in the district town of Pisz (Johannisburg) , to which the few Protestant residents of Kociołek Szlachecki now belong.

Catholic

Before 1945 there were only a few Catholics in the Adlig Kessels region. They were parish in the church in the district town of Johannisburg in the Diocese of Warmia . As a result of the war, numerous new Polish citizens - almost all of them Catholic denominations - settled in Kociołek Szlachecki after 1945. Since 1987 there has been a separate Catholic parish here with the previously Protestant church as a parish church. It belongs to the Deanery Pisz in the Diocese of Ełk of the Roman Catholic Church in Poland and also supplies the two subsidiary churches in Karwik (Karwik) and Rostki (Rostken) .

In 1737 Adlig Kessel became a school location.
