history

Monument in the center of the village

The farming village Altfelde with a Protestant parish church had belonged to the Marienburg district in West Prussia since 1818 (until 1920 in the Gdansk district of the West Prussia province , from 1920 to 1939 in the West Prussia district of the East Prussia province and from 1939 to 1945 in the Marienwerder district in the Reichsgau Danzig-West Prussia ).

Due to the provisions of the Versailles Treaty , the population in the Marienwerder voting area , to which Altfelde belonged, voted on July 11, 1920 on whether they would continue to belong to West Prussia (and thus to Germany) or join Poland. In Altfelde, 508 residents voted to remain with West Prussia, Poland did not receive any votes.

Towards the end of the Second World War , the region was occupied by the Red Army in the spring of 1945 . After the end of the war, Altfelde was placed under Polish administration by the Soviet occupying power in accordance with the Potsdam Agreement, along with all of West Prussia and the southern half of East Prussia . As far as the local villagers had not fled, they were in the aftermath of Altfelde sold .
