Geographical location

Place name
The Masurian place name is derived from the word krzyż for German cross .
history
With the Prussian territorial reform of May 27, 1874, the village of Krzysewen , which was founded in 1471 and was called Krziszöwen until 1818, belonged as a rural community to the district of Dluggen ( Długie in Polish ) in the district of Lyck , which included the communities of Burnien, Dluggen, Dlugoniedzialen, Duttken , Gronsken , Kolleschnicken , Krzysewen, Prawdzisken and Romanowen as well as the manor Imionken included.
In 1908 the rural communities of Burnien, Dluggen, Kolleschnicken, Krzysewen and Prawdzisken, which had previously been part of the Dluggen district, were incorporated into the Kallinowen district , which was renamed the Dreimühlen district in 1938.
On June 13, 1927, the then independent rural community Burnien was incorporated into the rural community Krzysewen.
Krzysewen was renamed on May 15, 1928 in the course of the increasing Germanization of place names of Masurian, Polish or Lithuanian origin in "Kreuzborn", which roughly corresponds to the translation from Slavic .
In 1910 there were 100 inhabitants registered in Krzysewen, in 1933 there were 192 and in 1939 a total of 200.
On the basis of the provisions of the Versailles Treaty , the population in the Allenstein voting area , to which Krzysewen belonged, voted on July 11, 1920 on whether they would continue to belong to East Prussia (and thus Germany) or join Poland. In Krzysewen, 60 people voted to stay with East Prussia, Poland did not vote.
After the end of the Second World War in 1945, Kreuzborn , 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 Kreuzborn was renamed in the Polish spelling of the historical place name Krzysewen in Krzyżewo.
From 1975 to 1998 Krzyżewo belonged to what was then the Suwałki Voivodeship , then joined the newly formed Warmian-Masurian Voivodeship in 1999 .
Religions
Until 1945 Krzysewen was parish in the Evangelical Church of Kallinowen in the church province of East Prussia of the Church of the Old Prussian Union and in the Roman Catholic Church Prawdzisken ( Prawdziska in Polish ) (until 1905: St. Adalbert Church in Lyck) in the Diocese of Warmia .
Today, on the Catholic side, Krzyżewo belongs to the parish Kalinowo in the Diocese of Ełk of the Roman Catholic Church in Poland . The Protestant residents orientate themselves towards the parish in the town of Ełk (Lyck) , a branch parish of the parish in Pisz ( German Johannisburg ) in the diocese of Masuria of the Evangelical-Augsburg Church in Poland .
traffic
Krzyżewo is conveniently located on the east-west axis of state road 16 , which stretches from the Kuyavian-Pomeranian Voivodeship through the Warmian-Masurian and Podlaskie Voivodeships to the Poland / Lithuania border. A side road leads from Borzymy (Borszymmen , 1938 to 1945 Borschimmen) to Krzyżewo.
Since the cessation of operations on the small railway line of the former Lycker Kleinbahnen in 2001, the nearest railway station Kalinowo has been canceled - in the expectation that the line will be reactivated in the foreseeable future.
