Geographical location

history

The small manor village of Ramten was incorporated into the newly established district of Klawsdorf ( Klewno in Polish ) in 1874. Until 1945 this belonged to the district of Rößel in the administrative district of Königsberg (from 1905: administrative district of Allenstein ) in the Prussian province of East Prussia . Ramten had only 43 inhabitants in 1820, there were already 130 in 1885 and 153 in 1910. On September 30, 1928, the Ramten manor district lost its independence and was incorporated into the neighboring village of Robawen ( Robawy in Polish ).

Due to the provisions of the Versailles Treaty , the population voted in the referendums in East and West Prussia on July 11, 1920 on whether they would continue to belong to East Prussia (and thus Germany) or join Poland. In Ramten, 100 residents voted to remain with East Prussia, Poland did not receive any votes.

When the whole of southern East Prussia was transferred to Poland in 1945 as a result of the war , Ramten was also affected. The village received the Polish form of the name "Ramty" and is now a place in the network of the urban and rural community Reszel (Rößel) in the powiat Kętrzyński ( Rastenburg district ), until 1998 the Olsztyn Voivodeship , since then the Warmia-Masurian Voivodeship belongs.

Until 1945 Ramten was parish in the Protestant Church of Rößel in the church province of East Prussia of the Church of the Old Prussian Union and in the Catholic parish of Rößel in the then diocese of Ermland . Today, on the Catholic side, Ramty still belongs to the parish Reszel in the current Archdiocese of Warmia , but on the Protestant side it is now part of the Kętrzyn parish in the Masurian diocese of the Evangelical Augsburg Church in Poland .
