Geographical location

Targowska Wola is located in the southern center of the Warmian-Masurian Voivodeship , 19 kilometers north of the district town of Szczytno ( Ortelsburg in German  ).

history

The village called Theerwischwolla at the time was founded around 1400. In its history it is closely linked to that of Theerwisch ( Targowo in Polish ). In 1874 Theerwischwolla was incorporated into the newly established Jablonken district ( Jabłonka in Polish ), which - renamed "Wildenau District" in 1938 - belonged to the East Prussian district of Ortelsburg . In 1910 Theerwischwolla had 105 inhabitants.

Based on the provisions of the Versailles Treaty , the population in the Allenstein voting area , to which Theerwischwolla belonged, voted on July 11, 1920 on whether it would continue to belong to East Prussia (and thus to Germany) or join Poland. In Theerwischwolla, 120 residents voted to remain with East Prussia, Poland did not receive any votes.

On October 17, 1928, part of the estate district of Theerwisch was incorporated into the rural community of Theerwischwolla. On September 28, 1933, the village was renamed "Theerwischwalde" for ideological and political reasons to ward off foreign-sounding place names. The number of inhabitants in the same year was 222, in 1939 190.

Together with the whole of southern East Prussia , Theerwischwalde was transferred to Poland in 1945 as a result of the war and was given the Polish form of the name “Targowska Wola”. Today the village is a place within the rural community Dźwierzuty (Mensguth) in the powiat Szczycieński ( Ortelsburg district ), until 1998 the Olsztyn Voivodeship , since then the Warmia-Masurian Voivodeship belongs to. In 2011 Targowska Wola had 118 inhabitants.

church

Theerwischwolla resp. Theerwischwalde was parish up to 1945 in the Protestant Church Theerwisch in the church province of East Prussia of the Church of the Old Prussian Union and in the Catholic Church of Mensguth Dorf in the then diocese of Warmia .

Today Targowska Wola belongs to the Catholic parish Targowo in what is now the Archdiocese of Warmia and to the Evangelical Church of Dźierzuty in the Diocese of Masuria of the Evangelical Augsburg Church in Poland .

traffic

Targowska Wola is located on a side road that connects Targowo (Theerwisch) via Grodziska (Grodzisken , 1938 to 1945 Burggarten) with Popowa Wola (Pfaffendorf) . In addition, a street leads from Augustowo (Augusthof) at Landesstraße 57 (former German Reichsstraße 128 ) directly into town. Targowska Wola has no train connection. Until 1992 and 2002 the place was a train station on the Czerwonka – Szczytno railway line , which has since been closed and its facilities are being dismantled.
