history

Klein Wolfsdorf was a very large Vorwerk and until 1928 belonged to the Dönhofstädt manor district ( Drogosze in Polish ), then until 1945 to the rural community of the same name in the East Prussian district of Rastenburg . In 1785 it was called "noble Vorwerk with 5 fireplaces". In 1820 there were 61 registered residents, in 1885 128 and in 1905 101.

As a result of the war, the village came to Poland in 1945 with all of southern East Prussia and was given the Polish form of name "Wilkowo Małe". Today it is the seat of a Schulzenamt ( Polish Sołectwo ) and thus a village in the community of Barciany (Barten) in the powiat Kętrzyński ( Rastenburg district ), until 1998 of the Olsztyn Voivodeship , since then part of the Warmia-Masurian Voivodeship .

Today Wilkowo Małe belongs to the Evangelical Church of Barciany (Barten) , a branch of the parish Kętrzyn (Rastenburg) in the Masuria diocese of the Evangelical-Augsburg Church in Poland , and also to the Catholic parish of Drogosze (Dönhofstädt) in what is now the Archdiocese of Warmia .
