history

Local history

Before the settlement of today's Radosze, there was probably a Pruzzen fortress on a hill to the west . In the times of the Pruzzen, the mountain is said to have been surrounded by water.

The Freudenberg was laid out around 1370, but possibly as early as 1352 under German law. An area of ​​50 Włóka belonged to the village  . In 1785 Freudenberg was mentioned as a “royal farming village with 36 fireplaces”. In 1874 the newly established district of Barten Domain was established in the Rastenburg district and the Königsberg district in the Prussian province of East Prussia . The Freudenbergswalde residential area ( Radoski Dwór in Polish ) belonged to the village of Freudenberg , and on March 13, 1918 the property forester's house Klingspornswalde (no longer existent today) in the Dönhofstädt estate - in the administrative district of the same name - was reclassified to the Freudenberg rural community . In 1929 the name of the administrative district of Barten domain was changed to " Taberwiese administrative district " ( Taborzek in Polish ). The district existed until 1945.

In January 1945 the Red Army marched into the area. As a result of the war, the village was part of Poland and renamed "Radosze". In 1937 the village became a Schulzenamt (Polish Sołectwo ) in the municipality of Barciany (rural municipality of Barten ). The two localities Zalewska Góra and Wargity (Wargitten) belonged to the Schulzenamt .

Due to two administrative reforms, the village was part of the Olsztyn Voivodeship between 1975 and 1998 and has been part of the Warmian-Masurian Voivodeship since 1999 .

church

Former German cemetery in Radosze

A (Catholic?) Church is said to have stood in Freudenberg. Remains of the stone baptismal font were in the garden of the school building before 1945.

Before 1945 mainly Protestant residents lived in Freudenberg. They belonged to the parish of the church Barten in the parish of Rastenburg ( Polish Kętrzyn ) in the church province of East Prussia of the Church of the Old Prussian Union .

Today the population of Radosze is almost without exception Roman Catholic . The former Protestant church in Barciany now serves as a Catholic parish church in the Deanery Kętrzyn II (north-east) of the Archdiocese of Warmia in the Catholic Church in Poland .
