history

In 1508 the place called Sdoren after 1777 and Sdorren until 1938 was founded by the Teutonic Knight Order as an interest village with 60 hooves.

The village, whose windmill gave it supra-local importance, became an official village on April 8, 1874 and gave its name to a newly established administrative district with nine incorporated places. The county Sdorren - November 15, 1938 in "District Dorren" renamed - existed until 1945 and was part of the circle Johannesburg in Administrative district Gumbinnen (1905: Administrative district Allenstein ) in the Prussian province of East Prussia .

In 1910 there were 525 inhabitants in Sdorren with its districts Lischijami (1938 to 1945 dismantling Dorren , Polish Lisie Jamy ) and Wiska. Their number increased to 1933 to 626. On June 3 (officially confirmed on 16 July) 1938 Sdorren was foreign-sounding place names in "Dorren" for political and ideological reasons of defense renamed . The population in 1939 was 483.

As a result of the war, the village came to Poland in 1945 along with all of southern East Prussia and received the Polish form of the name “Zdory”. Today it is the seat of a Schulzenamt ( Polish Sołectwo ) and thus a village in the network of the city and rural community Pisz (Johannisburg) in the Powiat Piski ( Johannisburg district ), until 1998 the Suwałki Voivodeship , since then assigned to the Warmia-Masurian Voivodeship .
