history

The small Gutsdorf called Malinken after 1871 and until 1930 Mallinken was first mentioned in 1564. At that time, Duke Albrecht prescribed the inheritance of Neuhoff (Zelki in Polish) to Freiherr Wolf zu Heydeck , including the Malinken estate.

In 1874 the Gutsdorf was incorporated into the Neuhoff district. This belonged to the district of Lötzen in the administrative district of Gumbinnen (1905 to 1945: administrative district of Allenstein ) in the Prussian province of East Prussia . At the same time, the village was also assigned to the Neuhoff registry office . The inhabitants of Gutsbezirks Mallinka amounted in 1910 to 98th

Due to the provisions of the Versailles Treaty , the population in the Allenstein voting area , to which Mallinken belonged, voted on July 11, 1920 on whether it would continue to belong to East Prussia (and thus to Germany) or join Poland. In Mallinken, 60 residents voted to remain with East Prussia, Poland did not vote. On October 17, 1928, the manor district of Pammern ( Pamry in Polish ) was incorporated into Mallinken, which had recently been converted from an estate into a rural community .

On May 10, 1930 Mallinken was renamed "Birkfelde". The population rose to 337 by 1933 and was still 302 in 1939.

In 1945, the village came in consequence of the war with the entire southern East Prussia to Poland and received the Polish form of the name "Malinka". Today the village is the seat of a Schulzenamt ( Polish sołectwo ) and thus a district of the rural community Wydminy (Widminnen) in the powiat Giżycki ( Lötzen district ), before 1998 the Suwałki Voivodeship , since then it has belonged to the Warmia-Masurian Voivodeship .
