history

Spaliehnen (after 1785 Groß Spalienen ) was founded as a Schatulldorf . The corresponding hand festival is dated July 21, 1708, after which Martin Bartsch received the order to fill the local position with 20 farmers.

In 1781 the peasants' financial situation was described as "bad". The inhabitants lived from agriculture , cattle breeding and ash burning . On the side they did canvas weaving . They had to buy the hay supplies in Poland alone .

Between 1874 and 1945, Groß Spalienen was incorporated into the district of Farienen (in Polish Faryny ) in the East Prussian district of Ortelsburg . In 1910 Groß Spalienen had 317 inhabitants.

A few months after the outbreak of World War I , the front line ran from autumn 1914 to February 1915 in the immediate vicinity of the village. The damage done was immense: 52 residential and 90 farm buildings were cremated by the Russians. But during the war, the residents took care of the reconstruction.

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 Groß Spalienen, 229 residents voted to remain with East Prussia, Poland did not receive any votes.

With the founding of a drainage company in 1927, an upward economic development set in, as their measures enabled large arable and meadow areas to be newly developed. The population of Groß Spalienen was 298 in 1933.

For political and ideological reasons to defend against foreign-sounding place names, Groß Sopalienen was renamed "Neuwiesen" on June 3rd - officially confirmed on July 16th - 1938. A year later the population was 323.

Neuwiesen was transferred to Poland in 1945 as a result of the war with all of southern East Prussia and was given the Polish form of the name “Spaliny Wielkie”. Today the village is the seat of a Schulzenamt ( Polish Sołectwo ) and as such a place in the network of the rural community Rozogi (Friedrichshof) in the powiat Szczycieński ( Ortelsburg district ), until 1998 of the Ostrołęka Voivodeship , since then part of the Warmian-Masurian Voivodeship . The number of inhabitants was 199 in 2011.
