Lipińskie ( German  Lipinsken (Ksp. Klaussen), 1935 to 1945 piers ) is a place in the Polish Warmian-Masurian Voivodeship , which belongs to the Gmina Ełk ( rural municipality Lyck ) in the powiat Ełcki ( Lyck district ).

Geographical location

Lipińskie is located on the eastern edge of the Arys military training area ( Poligon Orzysz in Polish ) on the south-west bank of Lake Lipinsk (1935 to 1945 Seebrücker See , Jezioro Lipińskie in Polish ) in the south-east of the Warmian-Masurian Voivodeship, 15 kilometers southwest of the district town of Ełk (Lyck) .

history

It is not entirely certain whether the location of today's - perhaps even uninhabited - hamlet ( Polish: Osada ) Lipińskie is geographically exactly the same as that of the former village of Lipinsken (1935 to 1945: piers ). The former Lipiensken , after 1785 Lipinsken with the addition of the parish Klaussen , was founded in 1550.

From 1874 to 1945, the site was in the District Klaussen (Polish Klusy ) integrated, the for loop elk in Administrative district Gumbinnen (1905: Administrative district Allenstein ) in the Prussian province of East Prussia belonged.

Lipinsken had 360 inhabitants in 1910, compared to 279 in 1933. Based on the provisions of the Versailles Treaty , the population in the Allenstein voting area , to which Lipinsken belonged, agreed on July 11, 1920 to continue to belong to East Prussia (and thus to Germany) or the connection to Poland. In Lipinsken, 260 people voted to remain with East Prussia, while Poland did not vote.

On January 14, 1935, the village was renamed "Seebrücken" to avoid foreign-sounding place names for political and ideological reasons. (The name goes back to a bridge that was built by the brothers Gustav and Rudolf Rupinski. This bridge was named "Hindenburgbrücke".) The population in 1939 was 270.

As a result of the war, the village came to Poland in 1945 along with all of southern East Prussia and received the Polish form of the name "Lipińskie". Today it is part of the Gmina Ełk (rural municipality Lyck ) in the powiat Ełcki ( Lyck district ), until 1998 the Suwałki Voivodeship , since then it has belonged to the Warmian-Masurian Voivodeship .

Religions

Until 1945, Lipinsken was parish in the Evangelical Church of Klaussen ( Klusy in Polish ) in the church province of East Prussia of the Church of the Old Prussian Union and in the Roman Catholic Church of St. Adalbert in Lyck in the Diocese of Warmia .

Today Lipińskie belongs to the Catholic parish Klusy in the diocese of Ełk of the Roman Catholic Church in Poland and to the Protestant parish in the city of Ełk , a subsidiary of the parish of Pisz ( Johannisburg in German  ) in the Masurian diocese of the Evangelical Augsburg Church in Poland .

traffic

The local branch of Lipińskie can only be reached via the Arys military training area ( Poligon Orzysz in Polish ). Before 1945 a land route led from Reichsstraße 127 (near today's place Klusy ) over a pier to Lipinsken resp. Piers. This bridge has been dismantled - probably for reasons of proximity to the military training area.
