Linowo is located on the southeast edge of the Rominter Heide (Polish: Puszcza Romincka) on the Linnawer See (1938 to 1945 Linnauer See , Polish: Jezioro Linowo), 21 kilometers east of the district town of Gołdap . The border between the provinces of Warmia-Mazury and Podlasie (it corresponds approximately to the former border between the German Reich and Poland ) is less than two kilometers away.

The small village, then called Linawen , was first mentioned in 1557. After 1589 Linawischken , then called Linnawen until 1938 , the place consisted of several small farms.

In 1874 Linnawen was incorporated into the Loyen district, which - renamed "Loien District" in 1939 - existed until 1945 and belonged to the Goldap district in the Gumbinnen district of the Prussian province of East Prussia .

In 1910, 211 people lived in Linnawen. Their number decreased to 147 by 1933 and was 155 in 1939.

In the course of the National Socialist renaming campaign , Linnawen was given the name "Linnau (Ostpr.)" On June 3, 1938. Seven years later, the village came in consequence of the war to Poland and has since been called "Linowo". The village is the seat of a Schulzenamt (Polish: Sołectwo) and a village in the Gmina Dubeninki association in the powiat Gołdapski in the Warmian-Masurian Voivodeship . The population is 62.
