Połom ( German Polommen ) is a place in the Polish Warmian-Masurian Voivodeship and belongs to the rural community Świętajno ( German Schwentainen ) in the Powiat Szczycieński ( Ortelsburg district ).
Geographical location
Połom is located on the south bank of the Drusen Lake ( Jezioro Zdróżno in Polish ) in the southern center of the Warmia-Masurian Voivodeship , 28 kilometers southeast of the former district town of Mrągowo ( German Sensburg ) and 25 kilometers east of the current district metropolis Szczytno (German Ortelsburg ).
history
Polommen originally consisted of several small farms. With the living space Dieblitzthal (no longer exists), the town was in the newly built 1,874 District Kelbonken ( Stare Kiełbonki incorporated), which - in 1938 in "District Kelbunken" renamed - was and until 1945 for Sensburg in Administrative district Gumbinnen (1905: Government District Allenstein ) in the Prussian province of East Prussia .
On the basis of the provisions of the Versailles Treaty , the population in the Allenstein voting area , to which Polommen belonged, voted on July 11, 1920 on whether it would continue to belong to East Prussia (and thus Germany) or join Poland. In Polommen, 60 residents voted to remain with East Prussia, while no votes were cast in Poland.
When all of southern East Prussia fell to Poland in 1945 as a result of the war , Polommen was also affected. It received the Polish form of the name "Połom". Today it is part of the rural community Świętajno (Schwentainen) in the Powiat Szczycieński ( Ortelsburg district ), until 1998 of the Olsztyn Voivodeship , since then part of the Warmian-Masurian Voivodeship .
