Ochódno ( German Achodden , 1938 to 1945 Neuvölklingen (Ostpr.) ) Is a small village in the Polish Warmian-Masurian Voivodeship and belongs to the Gmina Szczytno (Ortelsburg) in the powiat Szczycieński ( Ortelsburg district ).

Geographical location

Ochódno is located in the southern center of the Warmia-Masurian Voivodeship , seven kilometers northeast of the district town of Szczytno ( Ortelsburg in German ).

history

The village, known as Achuden around 1785, was founded by the Ortelsburg keeper Konrad Stauchwitz . In the charter of foundation in 1483 Niklas Achusniczky was given "a good Achuden ... near the Waldpus lake " (Polish Wałpusz ). In 1532 , Duke Albrecht signed other lands over to Nikolaus Mikulla in a second hand festival . In the age of Frederick the Great , an economic rise was noted for Achodden. A renewed economic upturn took place at the beginning of the 20th century with the expansion of the Ortelsburg – Alt Keykuth road (today's Landesstraße 58 ) and the construction of a train station on the Rothfließ – Ortelsburg railway line .

The former station building in Ochódno

From 1874 to 1945 Achodden was in the District Schöndamerau ( Polish Trelkowo ) incorporated, which the district Szczytno in the Administrative district Königsberg (1905: Administrative district Allenstein ) in the Prussian province of East Prussia belonged. In 1910 Achodden had 94 inhabitants, in 1933 there were 107.

Due to the provisions of the Versailles Treaty , the population in the Allenstein voting area , to which Achodden belonged, voted on July 11, 1920 on whether they would continue to belong to East Prussia (and thus to Germany) or join Poland. In Achodden, 76 people voted to remain with East Prussia, while Poland did not vote.

For political and ideological reasons to avoid foreign-sounding place names, Achodden was renamed "Neuvölklingen (Ostpr.)" On June 3rd - officially confirmed on July 16th - 1938. The population was 96 in 1939.

As a result of the war, the village came to Poland in 1945 along with all of southern East Prussia and received the Polish form of the name “Ochódno”. Today it is a village within the rural municipality of Szczytno (Ortelsburg) in the powiat Szczycieński ( Ortelsburg district ), until 1998 of the Olsztyn Voivodeship , since then part of the Warmia-Masurian Voivodeship .

Achodden resp. Neuvölklingen did not have its own school building. The children attended the school in Kaspersguth ( Kaspry in Polish ).
