Wysoki Garb ( German  Auxkallen , 1938 to 1945 Bergerode ) is a village in the Polish Warmian-Masurian Voivodeship and belongs to the rural community Dubeninki (Dubeningken) in the powiat Gołdapski ( Goldap district ).

Geographical location

Wysoki Garb is located 25 kilometers east of the district town of Gołdap and nine kilometers east of the central municipality of Dubeninki in the south of the 651 voivodeship road . The village was only 300 meters from the former border between the German Reich and Poland , now here is the border between the provinces of Warmia-Mazury and Podlasie equivalent.

history

The village, first mentioned in a document in 1597 and then called Augstlaucken , consisted of only a few small farms before 1945. Between 1874 and 1945 Auxkallen (from June 3, 1938: Bergerode) belonged to the district of Loyen (from 1939 district "Loien", today in Polish: Łoje) in the district of Goldap in the administrative district of Gumbinnen (today in Russian: Gussew) in the Prussian province of East Prussia .

In 1910 there were 73 residents registered in Auxkallen. Their number rose to 85 by 1933 and was 75 in 1939.

As a result of the Second World War , the village, called Bergerode since 1939, came to Poland and is now a village within the Gmina Dubeninki in the powiat Gołdapski of the Warmian-Masurian Voivodeship (from 1975 to 1998 Suwałki Voivodeship (Suwalken) ).

church

Auxkallen was and Wysoki Garb is not a church village. The population was - and is - parish in Dubeningken (Dubeninki). A predominantly Protestant population lived here until 1945 . The parish church in Dubeningken (1938–1945: Dubeningen ) belonged to the Goldap parish in the church province of East Prussia of the Church of the Old Prussian Union . The Catholic church members have been attending the Catholic Church in Goldap since 1894.

The reference to Gołdap exists today for the Protestant residents, who are in the minority compared to the Catholics. The now small Protestant church in Gołdap is a branch church of the parish Suwałki (Suwalken) in the diocese of Masuria of the Evangelical-Augsburg Church in Poland . The Catholic church members now belong to Dubeninki , where the former Protestant parish church is now theirs. It is part of the deanery Filipów in the diocese Elk (Lyck) of the Catholic Church in Poland .

traffic

The road connection to Wysoka Garbs is via a land route that branches off from DW 651 at Błąkały (Blindgallen) and leads to Prawy Las via Maciejowięta (Matznorkehmen) . A rail connection has not existed since the railway line from Goldap to Gumbinnen of the Deutsche Reichsbahn or Botkuny (Buttkuhnen) to Pobłędzie (Pablindszen) of the Polish State Railway with the Gollubien (Polish: Golubie) station was taken out of service. The nearest airport is in Danzig (Gdańsk) .
