history

The place called Bischofsdorf until 1785 was founded in 1346 and consisted of a large estate. Here stood a hunting lodge , which was a popular summer residence for the bishops of Warmia in the 16th and 17th centuries. The center of her stud was also here. In the 18th century, Bishop Ignatius Krasicki sold the land. The French destroyed the castle in 1807.

On December 27, 1871, "Bischdorf (Ostpr.)" Became a station on the Thorn – Insterburg line .

On July 9, 1874 Bischdorf office Village was and thus its name to an administrative district that existed until 1930 and the county Rößel in Administrative district Königsberg (1905: Administrative district Allenstein ) in the Prussian province of East Prussia belonged.

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 Bischdorf, 180 residents voted to remain with East Prussia, while Poland received no votes.

The manor district of Bischdorf and the neighboring manor district of Niederhof ( Nisko in Polish ) merged on September 30, 1928 to form the new rural community of Bischdorf. On March 11, 1930, Bischdorf lost the status of an official village and was reclassified to the administrative district of Santoppen ( Polish Sątopy ).

At the turn of the 19th and 20th centuries, it was built on the walls of an older building. Century a single storey mansion . The house, which is now privately owned, has been rebuilt inside, but still contains older forms. Another restoration seems to be in prospect.

When all of southern East Prussia fell to Poland in 1945 as a result of the war , Bischdorf was also affected. It received the Polish form of the name "Sątopy-Samulewo". The hamlet ( Osada in Polish ) is now part of the municipality of Bisztynek (Bischofstein) in the powiat Bartoszycki ( Bartenstein district ), until 1998 of the Olsztyn Voivodeship , since then it has belonged to the Warmia-Masurian Voivodeship .

The construction of the Thorn – Insterburg ( Polish: Toruń – Tschernjachowsk ) railway gave the village of Bischdorf an unprecedented economic and transport-political importance in 1871. Three decades later, connecting lines were even built, the connections to Heilsberg (Polish: Lidzbark Warmiński ) and Reszel as well Kętrzyn created: in 1905 the Schlobitten – Bischdorf railway and in 1908 the Bischdorf – Rößel – Neumühl railway to continue to Rastenburg .

While the line towards Heilsberg was abandoned in 1945 as a result of the war, the line towards Neumühl was reactivated in 2003. It was also completely abandoned in 2006 due to a lack of profitability. The main line from the direction of Toruń has ended in Korsze (Korschen) since 2000 . It was electrified in 1990.

The train station in Bischdorf was officially called "Bischdorf (Ostpr.)" Until 1945. Between 1945 and 1945 it was called "Sątopy", 1946 to 1945 "Sątopy Mazurskie", 1947 to 2015 "Sątopy Samulewo" and from 2015 in the correct spelling "Sątopy-Samulewo".
