Lipowo [ liˈpɔvɔ ] ( German  Lindendorf ) is a village in the Polish Warmian-Masurian Voivodeship , which belongs to the rural community Piecki (whip village ) in the Powiat Mrągowski ( Sensburg district ).

geography

Lipowo is located southeast of the district town of Mrągowo (Sensburg) in the Masurian Landscape Protection Park (Polish: Mazurski Park Krajobrazowy) on the western bank of the Jezioro Majcz Wielki (Great Maitzsee) .

Immediately along the place runs a side street that connects Kosewo ( Kossewen , 1938–1945 Rechenberg ) on Landesstraße 16 with Dobry Lasek (Guttenwalde) on Voivodship road 610 . The nearest train station is Baranowo ( Barranowen , 1938–1945 Hoverbeck ) on the railway line from Czerwonka ( Czerwonken , also: Rothfließ , 1932–1945 Rotbach ) via Mrągowo to Ełk (Lyck) .

history

The place called Lindendorf until 1945 was founded in 1833. In 1874 the village was incorporated into the newly established district of Pfeilswalde ( Pilnik in Polish , the place no longer exists). Until 1945 he belonged to the district of Sensburg (Mrągowo) in the administrative district of Gumbinnen (now Russian: Gussew ) in the Prussian province of East Prussia .

On December 1, 1910, 494 residents were registered in Lindendorf. Their number rose to 538 by 1933 and was 476 in 1939.

Due to the provisions of the Versailles Treaty , the population in the Allenstein voting area , to which Lindendorf belonged, voted on July 11, 1920 on whether it would continue to belong to East Prussia (and thus to Germany) or join Poland. In Lindendorf, 380 residents voted to remain with East Prussia, Poland did not receive any votes.

As a result of the war, Lindendorf came to Poland with southern East Prussia and was given the Polish name "Lipowo". Today it is a village in the Gmina Piecki (whip village ) in the powiat Mrągowski of the Warmian-Masurian Voivodeship (1975 to 1998 Olsztyn Voivodeship ).

church

The predominantly Protestant population of Lindendorf was parish until 1945 in the parish of the Church of Barranowen (1938–1945 Hoverbeck , Polish: Baranowo). It belonged to the parish of Sensburg (Polish: Mrągowo) in the church province of East Prussia of the Church of the Old Prussian Union .

Today the population of Lipowos is predominantly Catholic . The (previously Protestant) parish church in Baranowo is still a (now Catholic) point of reference. Baranowo is now assigned to the Deanery Mikołajki (Nikolaiken) in the Diocese of Ełk (Lyck) of the Catholic Church in Poland . Evangelical church members living in Lipowo now belong to the Mrągowo parish in the Masurian diocese of the Evangelical-Augsburg Church in Poland .
