Piastowo (before 2005 in Polish Stachowięta , German  Friedrichshof ) is a small town in the Polish Warmian-Masurian Voivodeship that belongs to the rural community of Kowale Oleckie (Kowahlen , 1938 to 1945 Reimannswalde) in Powiat Olecki ( Oletzko district , Treuburg district from 1933 to 1945 ).

Geographical location

Piastowo is located in the northeast of the Warmian-Masurian Voivodeship, in the southeast of the Seesker Höhe ( Wzgórza Szeskie in Polish ). The former district town of Goldap ( Gołdap in Polish ) is located 14 kilometers to the northwest, today's district metropolis of Olecko (Marggrabowa , Treuburg from 1928 to 1945 ) 18 kilometers to the southeast.

history

Before 1945, what was then Friedrichshof was a Vorwerk and belonged to the rural community of Pogorzellen (1906 to 1945: Hegelingen, Polish Pogorzel ). This was until 1945 a part of the administrative district Gurnen in district Goldap in Administrative district Gumbinnen the Prussian province of East Prussia .

In 1945 came Friedrichshof in consequence of the war with the southern East Prussia to Poland and was initially later called "Stachowięta", "Piastowo". The small place now belongs to the Schulzenamt ( Polish Sołectwo ) Dorsze (Dorschen) within the rural community Kowale Oleckie , where he "swapped" the former district of Goldap in the Powiat Olecki . Belonging to the Suwałki Voivodeship until 1998 , it is now part of the Warmian-Masurian Voivodeship .

church

Friedrichshof was parish up to 1945 in the Protestant parish Gurnen ( Polish Górne ) in the parish of Goldap within the church province of East Prussia of the Church of the Old Prussian Union . The responsible Catholic parish church was in Goldap, at that time part of the Diocese of Warmia .

Today Piastowo is assigned to the newly established parish Kowale Oleckie - in the newly formed diocese Ełk (Lyck) of the Catholic Church in Poland . According to Gołdap, the Protestant church members now belong to a branch congregation of the Suwałki parish in the Masurian diocese of the Evangelical-Augsburg Church in Poland .

traffic

Piastowo is close to a side road that leads from the Polish state road DK 65 (former German Reichsstraße 132 ) over the Seesker Höhe to Voivodship road 650 ( Reichsstraße 136 ) and thereby Pogorzel (Pogorzellen , 1906 to 1945 Hegelingen) with Nasuty (Nossuten) and Grabowo ( Grabowen , 1938 to 1945 Arnswald) . Until 1993 there was a connection via Pogorzel to the Ełk – Tschernjachowsk (Lyck – Insterburg) railway , which is no longer operated for passenger traffic.
