Płośnica [ pwɔɕˈɲitsa ] ( German Heinrichsdorf ) is a village in the powiat Działdowski of the Warmian-Masurian Voivodeship in Poland . It is the seat of the rural community of the same name with 5633 inhabitants (as of June 30, 2019).
Geographical location
The village is located in the historic East Prussia region , about twelve kilometers northwest of the town of Działdowo (Soldau) and 65 kilometers southwest of Olsztyn (Allenstein) .
history
The first written mention of the place took place in 1351; a church was mentioned as early as 1404. In 1785 Heinrichsdorf is referred to as a royal village with 51 fireplaces (households), which belongs to the district of Neidenburg and whose church is the mother church (Mater) of Groß Koschlau; the responsible domain office was in Soldau.
In 1874 the Heinrichsdorf district was formed; it was composed of:
- Gut Klein Tauersee
- Schreibersdorf
- Heinrichsdorf
- Heinrichsdorf forest district, Lautenburg i. Western pr. belonging
Head of office was the landowner v. Kownacki in Klein Taersee
Until 1920 and from 1939 to 1945 Heinrichsdorf belonged to the district of Neidenburg in the administrative district of Königsberg in the province of East Prussia of the German Empire .
During the First World War there was severe damage to the village. After the end of the war, due to the provisions of the Versailles Treaty of 1920 , the village had to be ceded to Poland without a referendum for the purpose of establishing the Polish Corridor .
After the invasion of Poland in 1939, Heinrichsdorf, like the rest of the corridor area, was annexed by the German Reich and assigned to the Neidenburg district, to which it belonged until 1945. In January 1945 the region was occupied by the Red Army and the village returned to Poland.
Evangelical parish
Until 1945, the Protestant parish Heinrichsdorf also included the following places: Grodtken, Groß Lensk , Klein Lensk, Priom, Groß Przellenk, Ruttkowitz, Schreibersdorf, Klein Tauersee and Wessolowo. Some of the clergymen who worked here between 1599 and the middle of the 18th century are known by name. In the 19th century Hermann Hoffmann (1853–1906) was a pastor in Heinrichsdorf.
