Stożne ( German Stosznen , 1936–1945 Sprindenau ) is a village in the northeastern Masuria in the Polish Warmian-Masurian Voivodeship , Powiat Ełcki ( Lyck district ), belonging to the municipality of Kalinowo (Kallinowen , 1938–1945 Dreimühlen ).
Geographical location
The village is located eight kilometers south-east of the village of Kalinowo on a country road going south-east from Borzymy (Borszymmen , 1936 to 1938 Borschymmen , 1938 to 1945 Borschimmen) . It lies on the eastern border of the Warmia-Masurian Voivodeship to the neighboring Podlaskie Voivodeship , the former state border between the German Empire and Poland.
history
The place Stosznen was created in 1503 on the eastern border of Prussia through internal migration, presumably from Lyck ( Polish Ełk ).
In 1656 the Tatars, allied with Poland, invaded large parts of Masuria, although Stosznen, which was then called Stofinen, was not as badly damaged as other villages, but a large part of the inhabitants was deported into slavery.
In a report by the Lyck governor von Auer it says:
Stofinen has 22 1/2 hooves, 2 farms are burned, 11 is standing, all cattle and horses have been sown over winter, 15 people have been dragged away.
In the years that followed, the village was reported as desolate , i.e. uninhabited. By settling settlers from Mazovia , the village was restored, which was then written to Stooßnen towards the end of the 17th century.
On May 27, 1874, as part of a Prussian community reform, a new district Borczymmen (from 1881: Borszymmen , from 1936 Borschymmen , from 1938 Borschimmen , Polish Borzymy ) was formed, which includes the communities Borczymmen , Jendreyken , Lyssewen , Przepiorken , Skrzypken and Stosznen and the Romotten manor district includes lakes. In 1908 the municipalities of Duttken , Gronsken and Romanowen and the Imionken manor district were reclassified from the previous Dluggen district to the Borszymmen district.
On December 1, 1910, Stosznen had 250 inhabitants.
Based on the provisions of the Versailles Treaty , the population in the Allenstein voting area , to which Stosznen belonged, voted on July 11, 1920 on whether they would continue to belong to East Prussia (and thus to Germany) or join Poland. In Stosznen, 160 people voted to stay with East Prussia, Poland did not vote.
In 1931 the district of Borszymmen included the rural communities of Borszymmen, Duttken, Geigenau (formerly Skrzypken), Gronsken, Jendreyken, Lyssewen, Romanowen, Stosznen and Wachteldorf (formerly Przepiorken).
In 1933 there were only 168 inhabitants left in Stosznen.
Stosznen was renamed on May 9, 1936 in the course of the massive Germanization of Masurian place names of Baltic or Slavic origin in "Sprindenau".
In 1939 Sprindenau (Stosznen) had a further decrease to 157 inhabitants.
After the end of the Second World War in 1945, Sprindenau , which was part of the German Empire ( East Prussia ), fell to Poland. The resident German population, as far as they had not fled, was largely expelled after 1945 and replaced by new citizens from other parts of Poland in addition to the traditional Masurian minority. The place was renamed "Stożne".
From 1975 to 1998 Stożne belonged to what was then the Suwałki Voivodeship , then joined the newly formed Warmian-Masurian Voivodeship in 1999 . Today the village is the seat of a Schulzenamt ( Polish Sołectwo ) and thus a place within the Gmina Kalinowo association .
church
Until 1945 Stossznen resp. Sprindeau in the Protestant Church Borszymmen in the church province of East Prussia of the Church of the Old Prussian Union and in the Roman Catholic Church Prawdzisken (1934 to 1945 Reiffenrode , Polish Prawdziska ) in the Diocese of Warmia .
Today, on the Catholic side, Stożne belongs to the Borzymy parish in the Ełk diocese of the Roman Catholic Church in Poland . The Protestant residents stick to the parish in the town of Ełk (Lyck) , a branch parish of the Pisz (Johannisburg) parish in the Masurian diocese of the Evangelical Augsburg Church in Poland .
