history

The Masurian village, then called Talten , was founded in 1512. Between 1874 and 1945 the village was part of the Wosnitzen district ( Woźnice in Polish ), which - renamed "Julienhöfen District" in 1938 - belonged to the Sensburg district in the Gumbinnen district (from 1905: Allenstein district ) in the Prussian province of East Prussia .

Due to the provisions of the Versailles Treaty , the population in the Allenstein voting area , to which Talten belonged, voted on July 11, 1920 on whether it would continue to belong to East Prussia (and thus to Germany) or join Poland. In Talten, 400 residents voted to remain with East Prussia, Poland did not receive any votes.

When the whole of southern East Prussia was transferred to Poland in 1945 as a result of the war , Talten was also affected and received the Polish form of the name “Tałty”. Today the village is the seat of a Schulzenamt ( Polish Sołectwo ) and as such a place in the network of the urban and rural municipality Mikołajki (Nikolaiken) in powiat Mrągowski ( Sensburg district ), until 1998 of the Suwałki Voivodeship , since then part of the Warmian-Masurian Voivodeship .
