Kot ( German  Omulefofen ) is a village in the Polish Warmian-Masurian Voivodeship . It belongs to the rural community Jedwabno (1938 to 1945 Gedwangen ) in the Powiat Szczycieński ( Ortelsburg district ).

Geographical location

Kot is east of Lake Omulef ( Polish Jezioro Omulew ) on the Omulef River (Polish Omulew ) in the southwestern center of the Warmian-Masurian Voivodeship . The former district town of Neidenburg (Polish: Nidzica ) is 20 kilometers to the south-west, and today's district metropolis of Szczytno ( German:  Ortelsburg ) is 25 kilometers to the northeast.

history

The village, called Omulef-Ofen after 1785, was first mentioned in 1623 when Georg Wilhelm prescribed an inn to Johann Plagga . It was later called "Babakrug". In 1742 Omulefofen was called a "tar producing village" and in 1817 the population was 130.

In 1874 the rural community of Omulefofen was incorporated into the newly established district of Omulef (in Polish Omulew ) in the East Prussian district of Neidenburg . This was dissolved in 1896, and Omulefofen was part of the district of Kaltenborn ( Zimna Woda in Polish ) until 1945 . On December 1, 1910, Omulefofen had 325 inhabitants.

A major fire destroyed the southwest part of the village in 1922. Despite the great damage done, it was the initial spark for the establishment of a volunteer fire brigade and the construction of a syringe house.

On September 30, 1928 the neighboring manor district Omulefmühle (Polish Przysowy , no longer existent) was incorporated into Omulefofen, and on November 1, 1928 the manor district Omulef (Polish Omulew ) followed with the village of Czarnau (Polish Czarna , also no longer existent) . The total population was 422 in 1933 and 517 in 1939.

When the whole of southern East Prussia was transferred to Poland in 1945 as a result of the war , the rural community of Omulefofen was also affected. The village was given the Polish form of the name "Kot" and is now part of the rural community Jedwabno (1938 to 1945 Gedwangen ) in the powiat Szczycieński ( Ortelsburg district ), until 1998 the Olsztyn Voivodeship , since then the Warmia-Masurian Voivodeship . In 2011 the number of inhabitants was 166.

church

Omulefofen was parish up until 1945 in the Evangelical Church of Jedwabno in the Church Province of East Prussia of the Church of the Old Prussian Union and in the Roman Catholic Church of Jedwabno in the Diocese of Warmia . Even today, Kot still belongs to Jedwabno, which is now part of the Masurian Diocese of the Evangelical-Augsburg Church in Poland and the Archdiocese of Warmia .

Belfry

Although there was no church in Omulefofen, there was a wooden belfry ten meters high in the middle of the village . It housed two bells purchased in 1913. They ushered in Sunday every Saturday after sunset and after finishing work in the fields. In the event of a fire or any other disaster, including happy events, every citizen was entitled to ring the bells. In the mid-1870s, the belfry was so dilapidated that it had to be torn down. Today there is a replica.

school

There was a school in Omulefofen from the 18th century. A new two-tier building was built for them in 1894. An old bell has recently been found. It dates from 1864 and was the bell that once hung in the gable of the school and called the schoolchildren to class.

traffic

Kot is located east of the busy Voivodship Road 545 and can be reached directly via a connecting road between Nowy Las (Neuwald) and Zimna Woda (Kaltenborn) . A road connection leads from Omulew (Omulef) and also from Dębowiec (Dembowitz / Eichenau) to Kot, as does a path from the now orphaned locality of the village of Małga (Malga) . There is no connection to rail traffic .
