history

The later Zawadden or Sawadden was founded as a small town called Neudorf in 1571. In 1874 it was incorporated into the newly established Muschaken district ( Muszaki in Polish ) in the East Prussian district of Neidenburg .

In 1910 there were 49 residents registered in Sawadden, in 1933 there were already 126. On June 3rd - officially confirmed on July 16th - 1938, Sawadden was renamed "Herzogsau" for political and ideological reasons to defend against foreign-sounding place names. The population was 125 in 1939.

Due to the provisions of the Versailles Treaty , the population in the Allenstein voting area , to which Sawadden belonged, voted on July 11, 1920 whether it would continue to belong to East Prussia (and thus Germany) or join Poland. In Sawadden, 81 residents voted to remain with East Prussia, while Poland did not vote.

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 the name “Zawady”. Today the village with the seat of a Schulzenamt (Polish Sołectwo ) is a place in the network of the rural community Janowo in the powiat Nidzicki ( Neidenburg district ), until 1998 the Olsztyn Voivodeship , since then the Warmia-Masurian Voivodeship .
