history

Today's hamlet ( Polish Osada ) Zakręt consisted of an estate and a forestry and was called Zakrendt after 1785 and Sakrenth after 1818 . Until 1945 it was a place of residence in the municipality of Jägerswalde ( Rosocha in Polish ) and belonged to the Sensburg district in the Prussian province of East Prussia . In 1910 there were 27 residents registered in Sakrent.

On the basis of the provisions of the Versailles Treaty , the population in the Allenstein voting area , to which Sakrent belonged, voted on July 11, 1920 on whether it would continue to belong to East Prussia (and thus Germany) or join Poland. In Sakrent, 20 residents voted to remain with East Prussia, Poland did not receive any votes.

In 1945 the entire south of East Prussia was transferred to Poland as a result of the war . This also affected Sakrent, which received the Polish form of the name "Zakręt". Today it is a place within the rural community Piecki (whip village ) in powiat Mrągowski ( Sensburg district ), until 1998 of the Olsztyn Voivodeship , since then it belongs to the Warmian-Masurian Voivodeship .
