history

Local history

Before 1945, Lipowo consisted of an estate , a brick factory and a forestry shop . In 1785 it was a place with four hearths. On July 9, 1874, the village was incorporated into the newly established administrative district of Raschung (now in Polish: Rasząg), which belonged to the district of Rößel in the administrative district of Königsberg (from 1905 administrative district of Allenstein ) of the Prussian province of East Prussia . On December 1, 1910, 30 residents were registered in Lipowo.

On the basis of the provisions of the Versailles Treaty , the population in the Allenstein voting area , to which Lipowo belonged, voted on July 11, 1920 on whether it would continue to belong to East Prussia (and thus Germany) or join Poland. In Lipowo, 20 residents voted to remain with East Prussia, Poland did not receive any votes.

On October 17, 1928, Lipowo and the neighboring town of Groß Parlöse (now in Polish: Parleza Wielka ) were reclassified from the district of Raschung to the municipality of Bischofsburg (now in Polish: Biskupiec). On February 3, 1933, Lipowo was renamed "Lindenhorst".

As a result of the war, Lindenhorst came to Poland with southern East Prussia in 1945 and was given the old place name "Lipowo" back. The village "moved" from the Rößel district to the Olsztyński powiat ( Allenstein district ) and is now part of the urban and rural community of Biskupiec in the Warmian-Masurian Voivodeship .
