Local history

Klein Rauschken , which consists of a manor and a few farmsteads, was founded before 1414. A privilege has been passed down from 1435: the landlords Albrecht, Kristam and Burchard received “30 hooves in the Neida forest” from Konrad von Rotenstein according to Kulmer law . Noble families were represented among the landowners: Andreas von Ruttkowski (1625), Hans von Ploschwitz (1647), Thomas von Romahn (1661), von Lubitz (1713), von Rölke (1762).

The area of ​​the manor district of Klein Rauschken expanded on March 11, 1899, when the Große Rauschker See (47.7840 hectares) was reclassified from the rural community of Groß Rauschken to the manor district of Klein Rauschken. In 1910 the village had 106 inhabitants. Due to the provisions of the Versailles Treaty , the population in the Allenstein voting area , to which Klein Rauschken belonged, voted on July 11, 1920 whether it would continue to belong to East Prussia (and thus to Germany) or join Poland. In Klein Rauschken, 59 residents voted to remain with East Prussia, while Poland received three votes.

The manor district of Klein Rauschken gave up its independence on March 1, 1927 and was incorporated into the rural community of Groß Rauschken ( Rusek Wielki in Polish ). On September 30, 1928, the rural community of Groß Rauschken was renamed " Rauschken ".
