Due to the provisions of the Versailles Treaty , the population in the Allenstein voting area , to which Groß Stamm belonged, voted on July 11, 1920 on whether they would continue to belong to East Prussia (and thus to Germany) or join Poland. In Groß Stamm, 100 residents voted to remain with East Prussia, Poland did not receive any votes.
