Lembruk [ ˈlɛmbruk ] ( German  Langenbrück ) is a village in the Polish Warmian-Masurian Voivodeship and belongs to the Gmina Mrągowo ( rural community Sensburg ) in the Powiat Mrągowski ( Sensburg district ).

Geographical location

Lembruk is located in the heart of the Warmian-Masurian Voivodeship , eleven kilometers northwest of the district town of Mrągowo ( German  Sensburg ).

history

Langenbrück was founded in 1371. At that time, the Grand Master of the Teutonic Order , Winrich von Kniprode , issued a festival of ten hooves . As a result of the Thirteen Years' War 1519–1521, Langenbrück was abandoned. With the prescription of eleven hooves to Stanislaw Ostrowski by Duke Albrecht I , Langenbrück was repopulated in 1532.

Between 1874 and 1945 Langebrück was in the District Kerstin Owen ( Polish Kiersztanowo ) incorporated, which - renamed "District Kersten" in 1938 - to Sensburg in Administrative district Gumbinnen (1905: Administrative district Allenstein ) in the Prussian province of East Prussia belonged.

Due to the provisions of the Versailles Treaty , the population voted in the referendums in East and West Prussia on July 11, 1920 on whether they would continue to belong to East Prussia (and thus Germany) or join Poland. In Langenbrück, 280 residents voted to remain with East Prussia, while Poland did not cast any votes.

As a result of the war, Langenbrück was transferred to Poland with all of southern East Prussia in 1945 and received the Polish form of the name "Lembruk". Today the village is the seat of a Schulzenamt ( Polish Sołectwo ) and as such a place within the Gmina Mrągowo (rural municipality Sensburg ) in powiat Mrągowskim ( Sensburg district ), until 1998 the Olsztyn (Allenstein) voivodeship , since then assigned to the Warmia-Masurian voivodeship .
