Rosinsko had a total of 402 inhabitants in 1910.

On the basis of the provisions of the Versailles Treaty , the population in the Allenstein voting area , to which Rosinsko belonged, voted on July 11, 1920 on whether it would continue to belong to East Prussia (and thus to Germany) or join Poland. In Rosinsko, 340 residents voted to remain with East Prussia, while Poland did not vote. On September 30, 1928, the neighboring Rogallicken estate (1938 to 1945 Kleinrosenheide , Rogalik in Polish ) was incorporated into Rosinsko, which also had an impact on the population: it rose to 481 by 1933. On June 3 (officially confirmed on July 16) of the year In 1938, Rosinsko was renamed to "Rosneheide" for political and ideological reasons to avoid foreign-sounding place names . The population was 460 in 1939.

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