Geographical location

The settlement ( Polish: Osada ) Suchorowiec is located in the southern center of the Warmian-Masurian Voivodeship , a few hundred meters from the border with the Masovian Voivodeship , which was the state border between the German Empire and Poland here until 1945 . The district town of Szczytno ( Ortelsburg in German  ) is 22 kilometers to the north-west.

history

Suchorowietz (after 1812 Alt Suchorowitz ) was mentioned in 1764 long before the actual village was founded . The establishment of the village did not take place until 1787 - with royal confirmation on April 14, 1787. Nine owners , who had previously had their bushel places here, received land. In 1841 it was said about their way of life: “The farmer lives very simply here and has extremely few needs. His main diet consists of potatoes, which he enjoys in the morning, at noon and in the evening, sometimes with a ridge , sometimes with cabbage, and rarely with milk ”.

In 1874 Suchorowitz was assigned to the newly established district of Fürstenwalde (Polish: Księży Lasek ) in the East Prussian district of Ortelsburg .

145 inhabitants were registered in Suchowitz in 1910, in 1933 there were 140.

Due to the provisions of the Versailles Treaty , the population voted in the referendums in East and West Prussia on July 11, 1920 on whether they would continue to belong to East Prussia (and thus Germany) or join Poland. In Suchorowitz, 99 people voted to remain with East Prussia, Poland had 4 votes.

On June 3, 1938 - officially confirmed on July 16 - Suchorowitz was renamed “Deutschwalde” for political and ideological reasons to defend against foreign-sounding place names. The number of inhabitants was 126 in 1939.

With the whole of southern East Prussia , Deutschwalde was transferred to Poland in 1945 as a result of the war and received the Polish form of the name “Suchorowiec”. Today the settlement is a place within the rural community Rozogi (Friedrichshof) in the powiat Szczycieński ( Ortelsburg district ), until 1998 the Ostrołęka Voivodeship , since then the Warmia-Masurian Voivodeship belongs to.

Today the evangelical inhabitants of Suchorowiec belong to the church in Szczytno (Ortelsburg) in the diocese of Masuria of the Evangelical-Augsburg Church in Poland . The Catholic inhabitants belong to the parish in Lesiny Wielkie (Groß Leschienen) as before , but now they belong to the Archdiocese of Warmia .
