history

The after 1785 Scziballen after 1818 Sczyballen to 1938 with additional Sczyballen (parish Orlowen) called small village was from 1874 to 1945 part of the administrative district Orlowen ( Polish Orłowo ), which - in 1938 in "District Adlersdorf" renamed - to circle Lötzen in Administrative district Gumbinnen (1905 to 1945: Allenstein district ) in the Prussian province of East Prussia . During the same period, Sczyballen was also assigned to the Orlowen registry office . On December 1, 1910, the village had 146 inhabitants.

Due to the provisions of the Versailles Treaty , the population in the Allenstein voting area , to which Sczyballen belonged, voted on July 11, 1920 on whether they would continue to belong to East Prussia (and thus Germany) or join Poland. In Sczyballen, 100 residents voted to remain with East Prussia, Poland did not vote.

Before 1933 the rural community Kowalewsken ( Polish: Kowalewskie ) was incorporated into Sczyballen. The population was 237 in 1933 and 197 in 1939.

On June 3 (officially confirmed on July 16) in 1938, Sczyballen was renamed “Lorenzhall” for political and ideological reasons to defend against foreign-sounding place names. As a result of the war, the place came to Poland in 1945 along with the whole of southern East Prussia and has since borne the Polish name form "Szczybały Orłowskie". Today the village is the seat of a Schulzenamt (Polish sołectwo) and thus a place in the network of the rural community Wydminy (Widminnen) in the powiat Giżycki ( Lötzen district ), before 1998 the Suwałki Voivodeship , since then part of the Warmia-Masurian Voivodeship .
