Geographical location

history

As early as 1769, what was then known as Nowjehnen was founded. Before 1785 Nojehnen called the village was called until 1938 Naujehnen . At that time, several large and small courtyards formed the place that had belonged to the Bodschwingken District (Polish: Boćwinka) since 1874 and - renamed "Herandstal District" in 1939 - was part of the Goldap district in the Gumbinnen district of the Prussian province of East Prussia until 1945 .

In 1910 Naujehnen had 84 inhabitants. Before 1931, the small town was incorporated into the neighboring community of Kallnischken (1938 to 1945: Kunzmannsrode, Polish: Kalniszki) and - renamed "Neuengrund" in 1938 - thus shared its history with the new mother community.

This changed in 1945 when southern East Prussia came to Poland as a result of the war . Under the name "Nowiny" the small village became independent again, later it came to the Schulzenamt (Polish: Sołectwo) Kierzki (Kerschken) within the Gmina Banie Mazurskie (Benkheim) in the powiat Gołdapski , until 1998 to the Suwałki Voivodeship , since then to the Warmia-Masurian Voivodeship associated.

Religions

The majority Protestant population of Naujehnens resp. Neuengrunds was parish up to 1945 in the parish of the church in Grabowen (1938 to 1945: Arnswald, Polish: Grabowo) and thus assigned to the church district Goldap within the church province of East Prussia of the church of the Old Prussian Union . The responsible Catholic parish was in the district town of Goldap in the Diocese of Warmia .

The residents of Nowiny are predominantly Catholic, so that they are now cared for by the newly established parish in Grabowo . The originally Protestant church there is now a Catholic parish church and belongs to the Gołdap deanery in the Diocese of Ełk (Lyck) of the Catholic Church in Poland . The few Protestant church members now belong to the parish in Gołdap , a subsidiary of the parish in Suwałki in the Masurian diocese of the Evangelical Augsburg Church in Poland .
