history

The village, called Malzowen after 1601 and Mallsowen around 1621 , was founded in 1401. On the Wednesday before Pentecost of that year, a certain Peter Heyne received 60 hooves from Konrad von Jungingen , hereditary and perpetual with Köllmisch rights . The village consisted of a large estate and a brick factory . In 1570 Burghard Küchmeister von Sternberg bought Malschöwen, and the estate remained in his family's possession until the middle of the 17th century. In 1657 Malschöwen was divided between the von Haubitz , von Trettau and von Bartelsdorff families . In 1717, Captain Hans Georg von Haubitz was the sole owner. It remained in the property of his family until the end of the 18th century. In the 19th and 20th centuries, the owners changed frequently: the von Frankenberg and Proschlitz , von Keltsch , von Queis and von der Goltz families .

On July 16, 1874 Malschöwen office Village was and thus its name to an administrative district that existed until 1945 and for district Szczytno in the Administrative district Königsberg (1905: Administrative district Allenstein ) in the Prussian province of East Prussia belonged. The administrative district consisted only of the Malschöwen manor district.

In 1910 Malschöwen had a total of 334 inhabitants with its residential areas in Charlotten, Chausseehaus, Friedrikenberg ( Byki in Polish ) and Moritzruhe ( Budy ). In 1933 there were only 297, but in 1939 it was 364.

At the beginning of the 20th century, it was possible to gain 150 hectares of meadow space for Malschöwen and the neighboring village of Kukukswalde (Polish : Grzegrzólki ) by lowering the Malschöwer See and connecting it to the Großer Schobensee ( Jezioro Sasek Wielki in Polish ) through five kilometers of deep trenches and pipelines .

Due to the provisions of the Versailles Treaty , the population in the Allenstein voting area , to which Malschöwen belonged, voted on July 11, 1920 on whether they would continue to belong to East Prussia (and thus Germany) or join Poland. In Malschöwen, 203 residents voted to remain with East Prussia, Poland did not receive any votes.

The village was given the Polish form of the name "Małszewko" and is now part of the rural community Dźwierzuty ( Mensguth , Dorf) in the powiat Szczycieński ( Ortelsburg district ), until 1998 of the Olsztyn Voivodeship , since then it belongs to the Warmia-Masurian Voivodeship .
