Geographical location

Pieńki is located in the east of the Warmian-Masurian Voivodeship, four kilometers northeast of the district town of Olecko .

history

The small manor Stobbenorth, which had only 63 inhabitants in 1910, was incorporated into the newly established district of Seedranken ( Sedranki in Polish ) in 1874. It existed until 1945 and belonged to the Oletzko district (1933 to 1945 Treuburg district) in the Gumbinnen administrative district of the Prussian province of East Prussia .

Due to the provisions of the Versailles Treaty , the population in the Allenstein voting area , to which Stobbenorth belonged, voted on July 11, 1920 on whether they would continue to belong to East Prussia (and thus Germany) or join Poland. In Stobbenorth, 41 residents voted to remain with East Prussia, Poland did not vote.

On September 30, 1928, the Gutsdorf belonging to the Marggrabowa -Land registry office lost its independence and was incorporated into Babken (Ksp. Marggrabowa) (1938 to 1945 Legenquell, in Polish Babki Oleckie ).

In 1945 the city came in consequence of the war with the entire southern East Prussia to Poland and received the Polish form of the name "Pieńki". Today he is included in the Schulzenamt ( Polish sołectwo ) Dąbrowskie ( Dombrowsken , 1938 to 1945 Königsruh (Ostpr.) ) And thus part of the urban and rural community Olecko (Marggrabowa , 1928 to 1945 Treuburg) in the Powiat Olecki ( Oletzko district , 1933 to 1945 Treuburg district ), until 1998 the Suwałki Voivodeship , since then assigned to the Warmia-Masurian Voivodeship .

Religions

Until 1945, Stobbenort was parish in the Evangelical Church of Marggrabowa within the church province of East Prussia of the Church of the Old Prussian Union and in the Catholic parish church of the district town, then located in the Diocese of Warmia .

Even today, the Catholic church members in Pieńki are assigned to the district town, but today they belong to the Diocese of Ełk ( German  Lyck ) of the Roman Catholic Church in Poland . The Protestant residents visit the churches in Ełk or Gołdap , both included in the Masurian diocese of the Evangelical-Augsburg Church in Poland .

traffic

Pieńki is located on a side street that connects Babki Oleckie (Babken, Ksp. Marggrabowa , 1938 to 1945 Lassenquell) with the voivodship road DW 653 (1939 to 1944 in the section of the German Reichsstrasse 127 ).

Between 1911 and 1945 Stobbenort (h) was a railway station on the Marggrabowa (Oletzko) / Treuburg – Garbassen ( Polish Olecko – Garbas Drugi ), operated by the Oletzkoer (Treuburger) Kleinbahnen and discontinued as a result of the war. Today the district town of Olecko is the next train station, but only for goods traffic on the Ełk – Olecko railway line .
