Prośno is located on the east bank of the Jezioro Pieszkowo (Pörschken Lake) , eleven kilometers south of the town of Morąg and can be reached via a cul-de-sac from Miłomłyn (Liebemühl ), on the national road 7 via Tarda (Tharden) .

Place name

The German name "Pörschken" appeared again in East Prussia as Pörschken in the district of Heiligenbeil . This local office (in the Russian Oblast Kaliningrad ) now belongs to Novo-Moskovskoye .

history

In 1874 the place came to the newly established administrative district Taberbrück (today Polish: Tabórz) in the district of Mohrungen in the administrative district of Königsberg in the Prussian province of East Prussia . On January 31, 1900, the estate district of Pörschken, Forst was formed from the Oberförstereibezirk Prinzwald in Gutsgebiet Taberbrück . In 1910, 156 people lived in the Pörschken forest estate.

On September 30, 1928, the manor district of Pörschken, Forst was converted into the rural community of Pörschken, and on January 24, 1930, the Tabebrück district was renamed "Pörschken District". In 1933 the village had 117 inhabitants, and in 1939 it had 106 inhabitants. On January 1, 1945, only the municipality of Pörschken itself belonged to the district. Before 1945, the colony consisted of a village and a forestry department.

As a result of the Second World War , Pörschken came to Poland with southern East Prussia and was given the name "Prośno". Today the village belongs to the urban and rural community Morąg (Mohrungen) in the powiat Ostródzki ( Osterode district (East Prussia) ) within the Warmian-Masurian Voivodeship (1975 to 1998 Olsztyn Voivodeship ).

Religions

Before 1945, the population of Pörschken was almost exclusively of the Protestant denomination. The village does not have its own church and was parish in the parish of Sonnenborn - Venedien (now Polish: Słonecznik – Wenecja) in German times . It belonged to the church district Mohrungen (Morąg) in the church province of East Prussia of the Church of the Old Prussian Union . The last German clergyman was Pastor Johann Otto E. Bartsch .

Since 1945 the vast majority of Prośno's population has been of the Catholic denomination. The reference to the parish church in Słonecznik exists again today. The parish is assigned to the deanery Morąg in the diocese of Elbląg of the Catholic Church in Poland . Protestant church members now belong to the parish in Morąg, which is a branch parish of Ostróda (Osterode (East Prussia) ) in the Masuria diocese of the Evangelical Augsburg Church in Poland .
