geography

The village is located in historic East Prussia , 23 kilometers east of the district town of Gołdap on the southern edge of the Rominter Heide (Polish: Puszcza Romincka). 14 buildings and the Hotel Stanczyki are located on an area of ​​around 40,000 m² . Coming from the southeast, the river Błędzianka (Blind) flows into the Blind Lake and then flows further north under a viaduct . 500 m to the north-west are two lakes, the Dobellus Duży (Big Dobellus) and the Little Dobellus Mały . The latter "disappeared" for a few months in 1926 after a swamp gas explosion.

Stańczyki can be reached via Voivodship Road 651 in the Błąkały junction (Blindgallen , 1938–1945 Schneegrund) . A rail connection has not existed since 1944.

history

Before 1945, the small village in the extreme northeast of the Warmia-Masurian Voivodeship was only 500 meters north of the border between the German Empire and Poland . It was founded before 1597, at that time still called Stadt Sautzsche , also Stantzzausen (after 1592), Stadtschausen (after 1736), Stadtshausen (after 1818) and then until 1945 Staatshausen . In 1874 the village with its then widely scattered small farmsteads was incorporated into the newly established Loyen Office (1938–1945 Loien , today in Polish: Łoje). Until 1945 it belonged to the Goldap district in the Gumbinnen administrative district of the Prussian province of East Prussia .

In 1910 there were 225 inhabitants registered in Staatshausen. Their number decreased to 183 by 1933 and was 174 in 1939.

As a result of the Second World War , Staatshausen came to Poland in 1945 with southern East Prussia and was given the Polish name "Stańczyki". Today the place is a Schulzenamt (Polish: sołectwo) within the Gmina Dubeninki (Dubeningken) in the powiat Gołdapski in the Warmian-Masurian Voivodeship . 35 people live here.
