history

The village called Klein Medunischken was founded around the turn of the 19th and 20th centuries. In any case, the manor house, which is still preserved today, was built in 1900, to which an agricultural area of ​​almost 500 hectares belonged and which was owned by the von Fahrenheid auf Beynuhnen ( Russian Uljanowskoje ).

On September 30, 1928 the manor districts of Angerapp ( Rapa in Polish ) and Klein Medunischken merged to form the new rural community of Angerapp. It belonged to the Darkehmen district (called "Landkreis Angerapp" from 1939 to 1945) in the Gumbinnen administrative district of the Prussian province of East Prussia .

When the village of Angerapp was renamed “Kleinangerapp” on June 3, 1938 for political and ideological reasons to avoid foreign-sounding place names (also due to the change of the name of the district), Klein Medunischken was also given the new name “Medunen”.

As a result of the war, the place came to Poland in 1945 along with all of southern East Prussia and since then has had the Polish name Mieduniszki Małe . The village is now the seat of a Schulzenamt ( Polish Sołectwo ) within the rural community Banie Mazurskie in the powiat Gołdapski , before 1998 part of the Suwałki Voivodeship , since then it has belonged to the Warmian-Masurian Voivodeship . The former manor house is now owned by the AWRSP (State Agency for Agricultural Real Estate).
