Mazanki [ ma'zaŋki ] (German Mosens ) is a village in the Warmian-Masurian Voivodeship in northeastern Poland . The place belongs to Gmina Zalewo in Powiat Iławski .
geography

history
Mosens was founded by the Teutonic Order as the estate of a small free one . The first documentary mention comes from the year 1322, when the Commander of Christburg Luther of Braunschweig confirmed the sale of (all) ten hooves in Mosens (Mosancz) by Heinrich Brandenburg to a Bulmann. For unknown reasons, this document exists in a second copy from 1326.
Fritzenhof: In the Middle Ages there was still the Gut Fritzenhof (Friczenhoff) in the west of today's district, which was founded by the Teutonic Order in 1311 as the estate of ten Hufen by a little free man named Friedrich. At an unknown point in time, Fritzenhof fell into desolation and its lands were taken over by Gut Mosens. However, this property still appears in the statistics for the Koenigsberg administrative district in 1848 under the name Zehnhuben ( noble Vorwerk for noble Gut Mosens ).
In the 19th century Mosens had the status of an estate district . The Mosens manor district was subordinated to the Terpen district in the Mohrungen district in 1874 . Through a territorial reform, the Mosens manor district was dissolved in 1928 and merged with the previous Gergehnen manor district to form the municipality of Gergehnen. This administrative affiliation lasted until 1945.
In 1861, Alan Mac Lean of Coll acquired the 317 hectare estate from the von Korff family for 76,000 thalers. His ancestor Archibald had to emigrate from Scotland as a Jacobite and settled in Danzig. Alan's motive for buying Mosens was that he had recently become engaged to Marie Glüer, the sister of the owner of Gergehnen. McLean had a new mansion built by the Hamburg architect Ernst Glüer , his brother-in-law, from whom he ran the business of an official head of the Terpen district from 1883 to 1895. He died there in 1911. The property passed through his daughter Martha to Fritz von der Groeben , who was no longer able to hold the property during the economic crisis after the First World War.
The estate was dissolved in 1931 and divided into around 20 small farmers who still characterize Mazanki today. Until 1945 there was a single-class elementary school in the village .
After the Second World War, the place was first renamed Mosiądz, then in 1946 Mazanki. Only a few farm buildings remain from the former estate. The mansion has disappeared. The estate park, which was designed as an English landscape garden according to the identification of the measuring table sheet 2184 , is now used as a meadow. Today Mazanki forms its own school administration in Gmina Zalewo, to which no other villages belong.
