Prażmowo ( German  Salpia ) is a village in the Polish Warmia-Masurian Voivodeship , which belongs to the urban and rural municipality Ryn (Rhine) in the powiat Giżycki ( Lötzen district ).

Geographical location

Prażmowo is located on the west bank of the Jezioro Jagodne ( German  Jagodner See , 1938 to 1945 Kröstensee) in the eastern center of the Warmian-Masurian Voivodeship. It is 26 kilometers to the southwest to the former district town of Sensburg ( Mrągowo in Polish ), 14 kilometers to the north to today's district metropolis Giżycko (Lötzen) , and ten kilometers to the west to the town of Ryn (Rhine) .

history

The former Salpia was founded in 1546 and received the hand festival in 1548 . In 1818 Salpia was a farming village with 41 fireplaces .

From 1874 to 1945 the village was part of the administrative district of Schimonken , which - renamed in 1938 to the “administrative district of Schmidtsdorf” - belonged to the district of Sensburg in the administrative district of Gumbinnen (1905 to 1945: administrative district of Allenstein ) in the Prussian province of East Prussia .

Due to the provisions of the Versailles Treaty , the population in the Allenstein voting area , to which Salpia belonged, voted on July 11, 1920 on whether it would continue to belong to East Prussia (and thus to Germany) or join Poland. In Salpia, 260 people voted to remain with East Prussia, while Poland did not vote.

Until 1945, Salpia was also assigned to the Schimonken registry office (1938 to 1945: Schmitdsdorf). In 1910 the village had 373 inhabitants, in 1933 there were 365 and in 1939 there were 348.

As a result of the war, Salpia came to Poland in 1945 along with all of southern East Prussia and was given the Polish place name “Prażmowo”. Today it is the seat of a Schulzenamt ( Polish sołectwo ). As such, it is a district of the urban and rural municipality Ryn (Rhine) in the powiat Giżycki ( Lötzen district ) , before 1998 the Suwałki Voivodeship , since then part of the Warmia-Masurian Voivodeship .

Religions

Before 1945 Salpia was parish in the Protestant Church of Schimonken in the church province of East Prussia, the Church of the Old Prussian Union, and in the Catholic parish church of St. Adalbert in Sensburg in the Diocese of Warmia .

Today Prażmowo belongs to the parish of Ryn in the diocese of Masuria of the Polish Evangelical-Augsburg Church and to the parish church of the Assumption of Mary in Szymonka in the diocese of Ełk (Lyck) of the Roman Catholic Church in Poland .
