Koskajmy ( German  Koskeim ) is an orphaned local authority in the Polish Warmian-Masurian Voivodeship . It is located in the Gmina Barciany (rural community Barten ) in the powiat Kętrzyński ( Rastenburg district ).

Geographical location

The local office Koskajmy is in the northern center of the Warmian-Masurian Voivodeship , 13 kilometers south of the former district town of Gerdauen (today Russian Schelesnodoroschny ) and 20 kilometers northwest of today's district metropolis Kętrzyn ( German  Rastenburg ).

history

The former Koskeim was founded before 1437 and was a Vorwerk zu Skandau ( Skandawa in Polish ) in the East Prussian district of Gerdauen until 1945 . In 1905 the small town had 49 inhabitants.

With all of southern East Prussia , Koskeim was transferred to Poland in 1945 as a result of the war and was given the Polish form of name "Koskajmy". Today it is an abandoned hamlet ( Polish : Opuszczony przysiółek osady ) of the Frączkowo (Fritzendorf) settlement without a single building and without a person living here. The local office belongs to the municipality of Barciany (Barten) in the powiat Kętrzyński ( Rastenburg district ), until 1998 the Olsztyn Voivodeship , since then assigned to the Warmia-Masurian Voivodeship .

church

Until 1945 Koskeim was incorporated into the Protestant Church of Molthainen in the church province of East Prussia of the Church of the Old Prussian Union and into the Catholic Church of St. Bruno in Insterburg (today : Chernyachovsk in Russian ) in the Diocese of Warmia .

The Koskajmy location is on an impassable country road that connects Frączkowo (Fritzendorf) via Oleszka (Friedrichshof) with Gęsie Góry (Sansgarben) . There is no train connection.
