Talki [ ˈtalki ] ( German  Talken ) is a village in the Polish Warmian-Masurian Voivodeship and belongs to the rural community of Wydminy (Widminnen) in the Giżycki powiat ( Lötzen district ).

Geographical location

Talki is located in the eastern center of the Warmian-Masurian Voivodeship , 21 kilometers southeast of the district town of Giżycko (Lötzen) .

history

The village, called Talken until 1945 , was founded in 1534. With its district Rostken ( Polish Rostki ) it was incorporated into the newly established administrative district Groß Konopken ( Polish Konopki Wielkie ) in the administrative district Gumbinnen (1905 to 1945: administrative district Allenstein ) in the Prussian province of East Prussia . At the same time it was assigned to the registry office Groß Konopken. The village had 400 inhabitants in 1910.

Due to the provisions of the Versailles Treaty , the population in the Allenstein voting area , to which Talken belonged, voted on July 11, 1920 on whether they would continue to belong to East Prussia (and thus to Germany) or join Poland. In Talken, 320 residents voted to remain with East Prussia, Poland did not vote.

On September 5, 1929, Talken was reclassified to the Neuhoff district ( Zelki in Polish ), also in the Lötzen district . In 1933 the population was 501 and in 1939 it was 447.

As a result of the war, Talken came to Poland in 1945 along with all of southern East Prussia and has since been known as “Talki” in Polish. The village is now home to one for Rostki (Rostken) competent Schulz Office ( Polish sołectwo ) and therefore a district of the rural community Wydminy (Widminnen) in giżycko county (district Giżycko ), before 1998 the Suwalki province , since the Warmia and Mazury belong.

church

Until 1945 Talken was parish in the Protestant Church of Milken in the church province of East Prussia of the Church of the Old Prussian Union and in the Catholic Church of St. Bruno Lötzen in the Diocese of Warmia . Today Talki belongs to the Protestant parish Wydminy , a branch of the Giżycko parish in the Masuria diocese of the Evangelical-Augsburg Church in Poland or - with its own branch church - to the Catholic parish church in Zelki (Neuhoff) in the diocese of Ełk (Lyck) of the Roman Catholic Church in Poland .
