history

The small village, called Reglen after 1785 and rules until 1945 , was founded in 1467. Between 1874 and 1945 it was in the District Wischniewen ( Polish Wiśniowo Ełckie incorporated), which - renamed "District Kölmersdorf" 1938 - the county elk in Administrative district Gumbinnen (1905: Administrative district Allenstein ) in the Prussian province of East Prussia belonged.

In 1910, 398 residents were registered in the rules. Their number decreased to 387 by 1933 and totaled 388 in 1939.

Based on the provisions of the Versailles Treaty , the population in the Allenstein voting area , to which the rules belonged, voted on July 11, 1920 on whether they would continue to belong to East Prussia (and thus Germany) or join Poland. In the rules, 200 residents voted to stay with East Prussia, Poland did not receive any votes.

As a result of the war, rules came to Poland in 1945 along with all of southern East Prussia and received the Polish form of the name “Regiel”. Today the village is the seat of a Schulzenamt ( Polish Sołectwo ) and thus a place within the Gmina Ełk (rural municipality Lyck ) in the powiat Ełcki ( Lyck district ), before 1998 the Suwałki Voivodeship , since then the Warmia-Masurian Voivodeship .

Today Regiel, with its own chapel, is a branch of the parish Regielnica (Regelitzen , 1938 to 1945 Regelhof) in the Diocese of Ełk of the Roman Catholic Church in Poland .
