Geographical location

The Blankensee in the north of the village

The village is located in historic Warmia , ten kilometers west of Seeburg ( Jeziorany ) and 36 kilometers southwest of the former district town of Rößel ( Reszel ) and northeast of Allenstein ( Olsztyn ). In the north lies the Blankensee ( Jezioro Blanki ).

history

The church village was founded in 1362 and received the hand-festivals as Vrödemberg from Heinrich von Luther . Between 1874 and 1945 Freudenberg was the eponymous place of an administrative district that belonged to the district of Rößel in the administrative district of Königsberg (from 1905 administrative district of Allenstein ) of the Prussian province of East Prussia . The administrative district was formed from the rural communities (from 1935 "communities") Fleming (now Polish: Frączki), Freudenberg (Radostowo), Schönborn (Studnica) and Wonneberg (Studzianka).

Due to the provisions of the Versailles Treaty , the population in the Allenstein voting area , to which Freudenberg belonged, voted on July 11, 1920 on whether they would continue to belong to East Prussia (and thus to Germany) or join Poland. In Freudenberg, 720 residents voted to remain with East Prussia, Poland did not cast any votes.

After the Second World War , Freudenberg was placed under Polish administration by the Soviet occupying power in accordance with the Potsdam Agreement, along with the southern half of East Prussia and all of West Prussia . The Poles introduced the place name Radostowo for Freudenberg . In the following period, the remaining German villagers were expelled from Freudenberg by the local Polish administrative authority .

From 1995 to 1998 the place belonged to the Olsztyn Voivodeship , after which Radostowo became part of the Warmian-Masurian Voivodeship.
