Mazurowo , 1945 to 1954: Żydy ( German boiling ), is a village belonging to the municipality of Kalinowo (Kallinowen , 1938 to 1945 Dreimühlen) in northeastern Masuria in the Polish Warmian-Masurian Voivodeship , Powiat Ełcki ( Lyck district ).
Geographical location
The village is located seven kilometers as the crow flies southwest of the village of Kalinowo and one kilometer north of Pisanica (Pissanitzen , 1926 to 1945 Ebenfelde) on the road leading to Wysokie (Wyssocken , 1938 to 1945 Waltershöhe) . It is located 15 kilometers east of the district town of Ełk (Elk) .
history
The village of Zyden was founded in 1484 as a result of internal migration from the East Prussian order castle of Lyck . The name spelling changed over the centuries in Schieden, Sydden, Sidden, and finally Sieden.
On May 27, 1874, after a Prussian municipal area reform in the Gumbinnen administrative district , Lyck district , the Pissanitzen district was created from the rural communities of Czybulken, Groß Lasken , Kulissen , Loyen , Makoscheyen , Pissanitzen , Ropehlen and Sieden.
On December 1, 1910 there were 223 inhabitants in Sieden.
Due to the provisions of the Versailles Treaty , the population in the Allenstein voting area , to which Sieden belonged, voted on July 11, 1920 on whether they would continue to belong to East Prussia (and thus Germany) or join Poland. In Sieden, 160 residents voted to remain with East Prussia, Poland did not vote.
In 1931, after the renaming of Pissanitzen in Ebenfelde, the now eponymous district of Ebenfelde was reorganized and instead of the previous eight rural communities now only includes the communities Ebenfelde, Groß Lasken, Kulessen, Loyen, Makoscheyen and Sieden.
In 1933 there were 240 inhabitants in Sieden, in 1939 there were only 211 inhabitants.
After the end of the Second World War in 1945, the almost completely destroyed Sieden , which belonged to the German Reich , Kreis Lyck , fell to Poland . The resident German population, if they had not fled, was largely expelled or resettled after 1945 and, in addition to the traditional Masurian minority, replaced by new citizens from other parts of Poland.
The place Sieden was renamed "Żydy" in the Polish equivalent of the historical name. But Żyd is also the Polish word for Jew , which has repeatedly sparked discussions. The place name is derived with the historical spelling Zyden originally from the Baltic language of the Prussians and means "(place of the) fire." However, it was translated back into Polish as Żydy "Juden (ort)". There was probably never a Jewish settlement in Sieden itself. The name Mazurowo ("Masurian place") became more and more popular, but both place names appear alternately for a long time.
From 1975 to 1998 Mazurowo (Żydy) belonged to what was then Suwałki Voivodeship , then joined the newly formed Warmian-Masurian Voivodeship in 1999. Today Mazurowo is the seat of a Schulzenamt ( Polish Sołectwo ) and thus a village in the Gmina Kalinowo association .
Religions
Until 1945, Sieden was parish in the Protestant Church of Pissanitzen (1926 to 1945 Ebenfelde , Polish Pisanica ) in the church province of East Prussia of the Church of the Old Prussian Union and in the Roman Catholic Church in Prawdzisken (1934 to 1945 Reiffenrode , polnisach Prawdziska ) in the Diocese of Warmia .
Today Mazurowo belongs to the Catholic parish Pisanica in the Diocese of Ełk of the Roman Catholic Church in Poland . The Protestant residents stick to the parish in the district town of Ełk (Lyck) , a branch parish of the parish in Pisz (Johannisburg) in the Masurian diocese of the Evangelical-Augsburg Church in Poland .
