In 1910 there were 95 inhabitants in Stawisken, which merged with the neighboring towns of Groß Steinort (Sztynort), Klein Steinort (Sztynort Mały) and Stobben (Pniewo) and the island of Kirsaiten (Kirsajty) to form a new rural community . On June 3 (officially confirmed on July 16) of the year 1938, Stawisken was renamed "Ponds" for political and ideological reasons to defend against foreign-sounding names.
