Rakówek ( German Rakowken, 1938 to 1945 Stoltznersdorf , after 1945 to before 2005 called "Rakówko") is a village in the Polish Warmian-Masurian Voivodeship . It is located in the Gołdap (Goldap) district in the Dubeninki rural community (Dubeningken , 1938-1945 Dubeningen) .
geography
Rakówek is located on the southern edge of the Rominter Heide (Polish: Puszcza Romincka) east of the district town of Gołdap (Goldap) and south of the Jezioro Rakówek , which was called Rakowkener See or Stoltznersdorfer See before 1945 .
history
The former features a large park provided Gutsdorf that before 1565 Reckanwischken, before 1590 Rokauen, before 1785 Rekawischken, after 1785 Rekowken and until 1938 Rakowken said, was in the newly built 1,874 District Gehlweiden ( Polish Galwiecie ) incorporated. Until 1945 it belonged to the Goldap district in the Gumbinnen administrative district of the Prussian province of East Prussia .
In 1910 there were 103 inhabitants registered in Rakoweken. On October 31, 1928, the village gave up its independence and merged with the Gehlweiden estate to form the new rural community of Gehlweiden. On June 3 (officially confirmed on July 16) of the year 1938 Rakowken was renamed “Stoltznersdorf”.
As a result of the war, the village was assigned to southern East Prussia in the People's Republic of Poland in 1945 and was given the name Rakówko. Today the village belongs to the Gmina Dubeninki in the powiat Gołdapski of the Warmian-Masurian Voivodeship under the name "Rakówek" .
church
The majority Protestant population of Rakowkens and Stoltznersdorf was parish before 1945 in the parish Goldap , which was assigned to the church district Goldap in the church province of East Prussia of the church of the Old Prussian Union . The numerically few Catholics were also part of the parish in Goldap in the Diocese of Warmia .
The inhabitants of Rakówek today are mostly of the Roman Catholic denomination. For them the ecclesiastical relationship with Gołdap continues, where the former Protestant church is now the parish church of the Catholic Church in Poland . For the few Protestant church members, the current Gołdaper Church, a branch church of the parish in Suwałki (Suwalken) in the Masuria diocese of the Evangelical Augsburg Church in Poland , is the place of worship.

Between 1923 and 1945 the village was a train station on the Goldap – Szittkehmen railway line, also known as the “Kaiserbahn” , which was only temporarily operated as a result of the war, and ultimately not at all. Only the route can still be seen today.
