history

Waldhaus Wenden initially belonged to the Dönhofstädt manor district ( Drogosze in Polish ) in the East Prussian district of Rastenburg . From 1928 to 1945 it was a residential area within the rural community of Stettenbruch ( Szczeciniak in Polish ). Together with the whole of southern East Prussia, the small town was transferred to Poland in 1945 as a result of the war and was given the Polish form of name “Nowa Różanka”.
