Kociołki ( German  Langensee , until 1910 Kotziolken ) is a small village in the northeast of the Polish Warmian-Masurian Voivodeship . It belongs to the rural municipality Dubeninki (Dubeningken , 1938-1945 Dubeningen) in district Goldap (Goldap) .

Geographical location

Kociołki is located east of the district town Gołdap (Goldap) on Jezioro Kociołek and on the northwest bank of Jezioro Czarne (Czarner / Scharner See) . The Rominter Heide (Polish: Puszcza Romincka) begins just a few hundred meters further north.

history

The small Gutsdorf, once called Langensee , was founded in 1556 under the name of Gotzselka . In the following centuries the place was called Kodzolcken (before 1740), Kiotscholcken (before 1780), Katalischken (before 1785), Kotziollken (after 1785) and Kotziolken (until 1910). On February 2, 1910, the village was officially renamed Langensee .

As early as 1874, the village was incorporated into the then newly established district of Rogainen . Until 1945 it belonged to the Goldap district in the Gumbinnen administrative district of the Prussian province of East Prussia .

In 1910, 98 residents were registered in Langensee. Their number rose to 160 by 1933 and was already 170 in 1939.

As a result of the war, Langensee came to Poland with all of southern East Prussia in 1945 and has been called "Kociołki" ever since. The small village is part of the Gmina Dubeninki association in the Gołdapski powiat . It belonged to the Suwałki Voivodeship between 1975 and 1998 and has been part of the Warmian-Masurian Voivodeship since then .

Religions

Before 1945, the population of Langensee was almost without exception Protestant. The village was parish in the parish of the Dubeningken church, which belonged to the Goldap parish in the church province of East Prussia of the Church of the Old Prussian Union . The parish church of the few Catholics was that in Goldap in the Diocese of Warmia .

After 1945, the church conditions in Kociołki reversed: the majority of the population is Catholic and now uses the once Protestant church in Dubeninki as their parish church. It is part of the deanery Filipów in the diocese Elk (Lyck) of the Catholic Church in Poland . The few Protestant church members belong to the parish in Gołdap , a branch of the parish in Suwałki in the Masurian diocese of the Evangelical Lutheran Church in Poland .

traffic

Kociołki is located eleven kilometers from the district town of Gołdap and is easily accessible via the voivodship road DW 651 in the Pluszkiejmy junction (Plautzkehmen , 1938 to 1945 Engern (Ostpr.)) : From here there is a country road - this is where the village is located - in the direction Czarne (Czarnen , 1938 to 1945 Scharnen) .

Until 1945 Meschkrupchen (1938 to 1945 Meschen ) was the next train station. It was on the Goldap – Szittkehmen / Wehrkirchen railway line, also known as the “Kaiserbahn” , which was put out of service due to the war.
