history

The small former fishing village Alt Passarge was first mentioned in 1342. After the Peace of Thorn in 1466, the place remained on the territory of the Order of the Land , while New Passarge (Nowa Pasłęka) on the opposite side of the Passarge to Warmia and thus belonged to the Polish part of East Prussia . In 1772 both places became Prussian and thus "reunited".

Alt Passarge burned down almost completely in July 1753 and had to be rebuilt.

On June 11, 1874, the rural community of Alt Passarge came with the Rossen manor district (now in Polish: Rusy). On February 11, 1884, the previously communal-free property Wachtbude (forester's house) was incorporated into Alt Passarge. In 1910 the community had 373 inhabitants.

On September 30, 1928, Alt Passarge was expanded again: the Schettnienen manor district (today in Russian: Schtschukino) was incorporated. In 1933 there were 271 inhabitants, in 1939 there were 247.

Until 1945, Rossen and Alt Passarge were united in the Rossen district. He belonged to the district of Heiligenbeil in the administrative district of Königsberg in the Prussian province of East Prussia .

The place with the name Stara Pasłęka, which now has 26 inhabitants, has been Polish since 1945. He belongs to the rural community Braniewo in the Braniewski powiat in the Warmian-Masurian Voivodeship (1975 to 1998 Elbląg Voivodeship ). Today there are only a few houses and a restaurant.
