Geographical location

Miluki on the Ełk River (Lyck) is located on the south bank of Lake Haleck (1938 to 1945 Talfrieder See , Jezioro Haleckie in Polish ) in the east of the Warmian-Masurian Voivodeship. The district town of Ełk (Lyck) is six kilometers to the south.

history

The small village, called Millucken after 1785 and Mylucken until 1938 , was founded before 1483.

From 1874 to 1945 the place was incorporated into the administrative district Schedlisken ( Polish: Siedliska ), which - renamed in 1938 to the "administrative district Sonnau" - belonged to the district of Lyck in the administrative district of Gumbinnen (from 1905: administrative district of Allenstein ) in the Prussian province of East Prussia .

Mylucken had 172 inhabitants in 1910. Their number decreased to 155 by 1933 and amounted to 153 in 1939. Based on the provisions of the Versailles Treaty , the population in the Allenstein voting area , to which Mylucken belonged, voted on July 11, 1920 on the further state affiliation to East Prussia (and thus to Germany) or the connection to Poland. In Mylucken, 100 residents voted to remain with East Prussia, Poland did not receive any votes.

On June 3, 1938, the spelling of Mylucken was changed to "Milucken".

As a result of the war, the place came to Poland in 1945 with all of southern East Prussia and received the Polish form of the name "Miluki". Today it is the seat of a Schulzenamt ( Polish Sołectwo ) and thus a place in the Gmina Ełk (rural municipality Lyck ) in the powiat Ełcki ( Lyck district ), before 1998 the Suwałki Voivodeship , since then it has belonged to the Warmia-Masurian Voivodeship .

Religions

Until 1945 Mylucken was parish in the Evangelical Parish Church of Lyck in the church province of East Prussia of the Church of the Old Prussian Union and in the Catholic parish church of Lyck in the Diocese of Warmia .

Today Miluki belongs to the Catholic parish Straduny (Stradaunen) in the Diocese of Ełk of the Roman Catholic Church in Poland . The Protestant church members stick to the parish in Ełk , now a subsidiary of the parish in Pisz ( German  Johannisburg ) in the Masurian diocese of the Evangelical-Augsburg Church in Poland .
