Geographical location

Sarejki is located in the south-east of the Warmian-Masurian Voivodeship , six kilometers southwest of the district town of Ełk (Lyck) .

history

The founding of the village called Scharreyken around 1785, Sarreyken after 1785 and Sareyken until 1938 took place around 1569. In 1874 the place was incorporated into the newly established district of Lyck-Land, which has its seat in Neuendorf ( Nowa Wieś Ełcka in Polish ). It existed until 1945 and was part of the county elk in Administrative district Gumbinnen (1905: Administrative district Allenstein ) in the Prussian province of East Prussia .

In 1910 Sareyken had 136 inhabitants. The number rose to 177 by 1933. Due to the provisions of the Versailles Treaty , the population in the Allenstein voting area , to which Sareyken belonged, voted on July 11, 1920 on whether they would continue to belong to East Prussia (and thus to Germany) or join Poland . In Sareyken, 80 residents voted to remain with East Prussia, while Poland did not vote.

On June 3 (officially confirmed on 16 July) of the year 1938, the renaming Sareykens in "Sareiken" outlandish translucent for political and ideological reasons the defense place names were decisive. The population was 159 in 1939.

As a result of the war, the village came to Poland in 1945 along with all of southern East Prussia and received the Polish form of the name “Szarejki”. Today it is the seat of a Schulzenamt ( Polish Sołectwo ) and thus a village in the Gmina Ełk (rural municipality Lyck ) in the powiat Ełcki ( Lyck district ), before 1998 the Suwałki Voivodeship , since then part of the Warmia-Masurian Voivodeship .
