Konrady ( German  Konraden ) is a small village in the Polish Warmian-Masurian Voivodeship . It belongs to the Gmina Świętajno (rural community Schwentainen , 1938 to 1945 Altkirchen (Eastern Pr.) ) In the Powiat Szczycieński ( Ortelsburg district ).

Geographical location

Konrady is located 500 meters east of the Eastern Canal ( Jerutka in Polish ) in the southern center of the Warmian-Masurian Voivodeship , 17 kilometers southeast of the district town of Szczytno ( Ortelsburg in German ).  

history

The first mention of a settlement in the Konraden area (until about 1900 also Conraden ) is not found until 1786. In 1788 there is a note "that six owners who have lived in Scheffelplatz since 1785 were assigned (lands) in a particular way". In later times, the creation of ditches in the developed eastern canal changed the frequent floods.

In 1874, Conraden was incorporated into the newly established district of Wilhelmsthal (in Polish : Pużary ) in the East Prussian district of Ortelsburg .

The number of inhabitants of Konraden was 119 in 1910, 139 in 1933 and 136 in 1939. Due to the provisions of the Versailles Treaty , the population voted in the referendums in East and West Prussia on July 11, 1920 on the continued state membership in East Prussia ( and thus to Germany) or the connection to Poland. In Konrad, 101 people voted to remain with East Prussia, while Poland did not vote.

In 1945 Konraden was in consequence of the war with the entire southern East Prussia to Poland transferred. The village was given the Polish name form "Konrady" and is today with the seat of a Schulzenamt (Polish Sołectwo ) a village in the Gmina Świętajno (rural community Schwentainen , 1938 to 1945 Altkirchen (Eastern Pr.) ) In the powiat Szczycieński ( Ortelsburg district ), to 1998 Olsztyn Voivodeship , since then part of the Warmian-Masurian Voivodeship . In 2011 Konrady had 50 inhabitants.

Today, on the Catholic side, Konrady belongs to the St. Adalbert Church of Gawrzyjałki in the current Archdiocese of Warmia , and on the Protestant side to the parish Szczytno (Ortelsburg) in the diocese of Masuria of the Evangelical-Augsburg Church in Poland .
