history

The village, called Theerwisch Wolka after 1785 , was founded around 1400 and consisted of an estate and a few farmsteads. In 1874 the place came to the newly established Przytullen District ( Polish: Przytuły ), to which it belonged after 1880, separated into a rural community and manor district and which - renamed "District Steinhöhe" in 1938 - belonged to the East Prussian district of Ortelsburg until 1945 .

In 1910 the rural community Theerwischwolka had 36 and the manor Theerwischwolka 25 inhabitants. Due to the provisions of the Versailles Treaty , the population in the Allenstein voting area , to which Theerwischwolka belonged, voted on July 11, 1920 on whether it would continue to belong to East Prussia (and thus Germany) or join Poland. In the village and estate of Theerwischwolka, 81 people voted to remain with East Prussia, while no votes were cast for Poland.

The rural community Theerwischwolka was renamed on October 9, 1928 in "Waldrode". A few days later - on October 17, 1928 - the estate district Theerwischwolka gave up its independence and was incorporated into the rural community - now called "Waldrode". The population of the rural community Waldrode was 115 in 1933 and 126 in 1939.

1945 Waldrode was in consequence of the war with the entire southern East Prussia to Poland handed over and received the Polish form of the name "Targowska Wólka". Today it is a hamlet ( Polish Osada ) within the rural community Dźwierzuty (Mensguth) in the powiat Szczycieński ( Ortelsburg district ), until 1998 the Olsztyn Voivodeship , since then part of the Warmia-Masurian Voivodeship .
