history

In 1391 the Bishop of Warmia awarded Henry III. Sorbom the hand- fests according to the agricultural constitution of the Teutonic Order state to the Freihof Plonhöfen. The place called Plenowen before 1785 and Plönhöwen after 1785 consisted of several farmsteads and a brick factory . In 1785 Plönöfen was mentioned as a " köllmisches village " with five fireplaces. 1874 was in the newly built office district Lossainen ( Polish Łężany incorporated), which existed until 1945 and the county Rößel in Administrative district Königsberg (1905: Administrative district Allenstein ) in the Prussian province of East Prussia belonged. In 1905 the rural community Plönhöfen had 36 inhabitants. A few years later it was incorporated into the neighboring municipality of Loßainen (Łężany) .

As a result of the war, Plenowo came to Poland in 1945 along with all of southern East Prussia and was given the Polish form of name “Plenowo”. Today it is a village within the urban and rural community Reszel (Rößel) in the powiat Kętrzyński ( Rastenburg district ), until 1998 the Olsztyn Voivodeship , since then the Warmia-Masurian Voivodeship belongs to.
