geography

Wesołowo is located on the southwestern shore of Inulzensee (also: Schnittker See , in Polish Jezioro Inulec ) in the middle of the Warmian-Masurian Voivodeship , 13 kilometers southeast of the district town of Mrągowo (Sensburg) . From Zełwągi (Selbongen) a side road leads directly to the local office.

history

Wessolowen was founded in 1619 and initially consisted of a small farm. In 1785 the small town was mentioned as a Köllmisches Gut with two fireplaces, and after 1885 it was a residential area within the rural community of Eichelswalde ( Świnie Oko in Polish ) in the East Prussian district of Sensburg until 1945 . The place had 18 inhabitants in 1905. On October 14, 1929, it was renamed "Wesselhof".

With the whole of southern East Prussia, the place came to Poland in 1945 and received the Polish form of the name "Wesołowo". Today it rose in Zełwągi (Selbongen) (as “część wsi”). His local office is thus in the urban and rural municipality Mikołajki in the powiat Mrągowski .

Ecclesiastically Wessolowen or Wesselhof was parish until 1945 in the parish of the Protestant Church Barranowen (from 1938 Hoverbeck , Polish: Baranowo ) in the church province of East Prussia of the Church of the Old Prussian Union and in the Catholic Church of St. Adalbert in Sensburg in the Diocese of Warmia . The current ecclesiastical allocation is based on that of the communal mother parish Zełwągi.
