On May 6, 1874 Kruklanki office Village was and thus its name to an administrative district that existed until 1945 and for district Angerburg in Administrative district Gumbinnen in the Prussian province of East Prussia belonged.
687 inhabitants lived in Kruglanken in 1910. Their number rose to 739 by 1925, amounted to 1180 - also due to the incorporation of the Gutsdorf Gansenstein ( Polish Brożówka ) on September 30, 1928 - and in 1939 was even 1224.
As a result of the war, Kruglanken came to Poland in 1945 along with all of southern East Prussia and since then has borne the Polish name "Kruklanki".

Religions
Until 1945 there was only one Protestant church in Kruglanken. Today there are three churches of different denominations.
Evangelical
In 1575 the first church was built in Kruglanken, on the foundation of which a new church with a tower (completed in 1648) was placed. In 1875 and after war damage in 1914/15, extensive restoration took place. The parish comprised more than 20 localities with 4460 parish members in 1925. It belonged to the parish of Angerburg in the church province of East Prussia of the Church of the Old Prussian Union .
The flight and expulsion of the local population put an end to church life in the village now known as Kruklanki. The church is now a Catholic place of worship. The Protestant church members living here today belong to the parish in Giżycko (Lötzen) with the branch parish in Pozezdrze (Possessern , 1938 to 1945 Großgarten) in the Masurian diocese of the Evangelical-Augsburg Church in Poland .
Roman Catholic
Until 1945, the few Catholics living in Kruglanklen were parishioners in the Church of St. Bruno in Lötzen ( Giżycko in Polish ), which was part of the Masurian Deanery II (based in Johannisburg (Pisz)) in the Diocese of Warmia . The settlement of Polish citizens with mostly Catholic denominations after 1945 gave rise to new church life in Kruklanki. The once Protestant church has now become a Roman Catholic parish church with the name “ Assumption of Mary ”. It is at ulica 22 Lipca.
In 1962 a separate parish was established here. She belongs to the Deanery Giżycko -św. Krzysztof in the Ełk Diocese of the Roman Catholic Church in Poland .

Since 1905 the place was connected to the Angerburg – Lötzen railway line, three years later the connecting railway line Kruglanken – Marggrabowa (Oletzko) / Treuburg was put into operation . The Angerburg – Kruglanken section was discontinued in 1945, as was the entire Kruglanken – Marggrabowa line. In 1987 the Kruklanken – Lötzen section was also given up.
