Koleśniki [kɔlɛɕˈniki] ( German Kolleschnicken , 1938–1945 Jürgenau ) is a village in the northeastern Masuria in the Polish Warmian-Masurian Voivodeship , Powiat Ełcki ( Lyck district ), belonging to the municipality of Kalinowo (Kallinowen , 1938 to 1945 Dreimühlen ).
Geographical location
The village is located four kilometers south-east of Kalinowo from the trunk road 16 leading to Augustów .
history
Kolleschnicken was created in 1468 as a hand-held festival for the Teutonic Order . In that year the caretaker at Lyck sold Walter von Kökeritz to "Jürgen and Jan Lithaw eynen Dinst bey Pohibel" and to "Jan Ruski and Greger Lithaw 2 Dinste bey Pohibels Gutter" , which is the first documented mention and establishment of the place. The place name itself is of Baltic origin. An identical Kolesniki can also be found in neighboring Lithuania , where the first locators also came from.
In 1656 the Tatars, allied with Poland, invaded large parts of Masuria, and Kolleschnicken was badly damaged. In the report of the Lyck governor von Auer it says about the damage balance:
“ Colleschnigken 15 hooves, 6 farmsteads burned, 6 standing, fields sown over winter, all cattle and horses except for cattle and 1 horse gone, 15 people driven away, 1 child burned. "
With the Prussian territorial reform of May 27, 1874, Kolleschnicken belonged as a rural community to the district of Dluggen ( Polish: Długie ) in the district of Lyck , which included the communities of Burnien, Dluggen, Dlugoniedzialen, Duttken , Gronsken , Kolleschnicken, Krzysewen , Prawdzisken and Romanowen and the estate district.
In 1908 the rural communities of Burnien, Dluggen, Kolleschnicken, Krzysewen and Prawdzisken were reorganized into the district of Kallinowen (1938 to 1945: district of "Dreimühlen", Polish: Kalinowo ).
On December 1, 1910, 197 inhabitants were registered in Kolleschnicken.
Due to the provisions of the Versailles Treaty , the population in the Allenstein voting area , to which Kolleschnicken belonged, voted on July 11, 1920 on whether they would continue to belong to East Prussia (and thus to Germany) or join Poland. In Kolleschnicken, 120 residents voted to remain with East Prussia, Poland did not vote.
In 1933 there were 189 residents in Kolleschnicken.
Kolle popper was in the wake of massive Eindeutschung on July 16, 1938 Masurian place names Baltic or Slavic origin in "Jürgenau" renamed . This was based on the first name of the locator Jürgen Lithaw , who in 1468 was commissioned with his brother and others to found the place.
In 1939, Jürgenau had 175 inhabitants.
After the end of the Second World War in 1945, Jürgenau , which was part of the German Empire ( East Prussia ) , fell to Poland. The resident German population, if they had not fled, was largely expelled or resettled after 1945 and, in addition to the traditional Masurian minority, replaced by new citizens from other parts of Poland. The place Jürgenau was renamed "Koleśniki" in the Polish spelling of the historical place name.
From 1975 to 1998, Koleśniki belonged to what was then the Suwałki Voivodeship , then joined the newly formed Warmian-Masurian Voivodeship in 1999 . Today Koleśniki is the seat of a Schulzenamt ( Polish Sołectwo ) and thus a village in the Gmina Kalinowo association .
Religions
Until 1945 Kolleschnicken resp. Jürgenau joined the Protestant Church of Prawdzisken (1934 to 1945 Reiffenrode , Polish Prawdziska ) in the church province of East Prussia of the Church of the Old Prussian Union as well as the Roman Catholic Church of St. Andreas parish there in the diocese of Warmia .
On the Catholic side, Koleśniki still belongs to the Church of Św. Andrzeja Apostoła in Prawdziska, now in the Ełk Diocese of the Roman Catholic Church in Poland . The Protestant residents stick to the parish in the district town of Ełk (Lyck) , a branch parish of the parish in Pisz ( Johannisburg ) in the Masurian diocese of the Evangelical-Augsburg Church in Poland .
