Local history

The first permanent settlement on the site of the former Lamgarben was built in 1328. At that time there was a game house of the Teutonic Order here . Next to this fortification was a settlement that was mentioned in 1339 as "Laumygarbis" and in 1419 as Lamegarben . In 1422 there was already a church, four jugs , a mill and ten farms in the village. After 1528, the parish of Lamgarben belonged to the villages of Schönfließ (now Kraskowo in Polish ) and Tolksdorf ( Tołkiny ).

In the 16th century the settlement belonged to Duke Albrecht I of Brandenburg-Ansbach , who lent it to Michael von Egloffstein . Then the von der Groeben became the owners of the place.

A new church was built between 1728 and 1732, which was badly damaged in a storm on January 17, 1818. The church tower collapsed and the roof was damaged. In 1824 the building was renovated.

On April 30, 1874 Lamgarben office Village was and thus its name to a newly built office district , which existed until 1945 and the county Rastenburg in the administrative district of Kaliningrad in the Prussian province of East Prussia belonged.

After the Second World War , the village, called "Garbno" in Polish, became part of Poland and in 1954 briefly became the seat of a Gromada .

Culture and sights

Lamgarben Ordensburg

More than 100 years ago, on a hill near Lamgarben, which was commonly referred to as a hill , remains of the foundation of a fortification were found, which, according to the dimensions and floor plan, must have belonged to a “Wildhaus” (wooden castle) of the order. It was found out that the castle was built in 1328 and expanded around 1400 to a similar size as Bäslack Castle . In 1437 it was mentioned as a chamber office and probably completely destroyed in the city war (1454–1466) (according to another source on the same website: “After the occupation of these areas by the Teutonic Order, a Wildhaus was built here in 1328 was rebuilt into a brick fortified castle, which was destroyed during the 13 Years War, in the years 1454–1466. ")

It represented a link between the castles from Leunenburg to Rastenburg , which helped to colonize the wilderness that reached here at that time and to secure it militarily. When, after the successful completion of these measures, a new chain of castles was built further east from Angerburg to Johannisburg with the same goal, the Wildhaus in Lamgarben lost its importance and was even forgotten.

Probably after the Thirteen Years' War, the goods were merged into an estate. On February 24, 1521, the Grand Master of the Teutonic Order, Albrecht von Hohenzollern, transferred 14 hooves in Lamgarben to the knight Hieronim von Egloffstein due to debts under Magdeburg law with the obligation of knight service. The property remained in the possession of this family until 1832.

The castle / manor house in the village is said to have been built on the older foundations of a previous building.

manor

The manor house from the 19th century is well worth seeing. Since 1998 there has been a memorial plaque with a bilingual inscription on the house. In German it says: “Here lived and worked in the years 1880–1911, the founder of the rural women’s movement, Elisabet Boehm , geb. Tapestry. 100 years ago an idea matured here that today unites rural women all over the world. Garbno (Lamgarben) - 1998 ".

church

Church building

The church in Garbno

The church was originally built in the 14th century and rebuilt in 1728 and 1732. It was destroyed in World War II and then rebuilt. The church tower and the holy water font date from the 15th century.

Parish

Evangelical

Lamgarben was a church village as early as the pre-Reformation period. With the Reformation it became Protestant . The parish of Lamgarben had up to 20 villages and places in which in 1925 a total of 1,850 parishioners lived. Until 1945, the Lamgarben church belonged to the church province of East Prussia of the Church of the Old Prussian Union . Flight and expulsion of Germans from Central and Eastern Europe 1945–1950 put an end to the Protestant community in what is now called Garbno. Protestant residents living here today are oriented towards the St. John's Church in Kętrzyn in the Masuria diocese of the Evangelical-Augsburg Church in Poland .

Catholic

Few Catholics lived in Lamgarben before 1945. Until 1945 they were incorporated into the Rastenburg parish in the Diocese of Warmia . The resettlement of new Polish citizens after 1945 made the number of Catholic residents in Garbno stronger, and an independent parish was formed here, which is subordinate to the current Archdiocese of Warmia . The parish, which is dedicated to the "Mother of God, Queen of Poland", also includes the branch church in Tołkiny (Tolksdorf) and the care of the prison in Dubliny (Dublien) .
