Zocie ( German Soczien , 1938-1945 Kechlersdorf ) is a village in the northeastern Masuria in the Polish Warmian-Masurian Voivodeship , Powiat Ełcki ( Lyck district ), belonging to the municipality of Kalinowo (Kallinowen , 1938 to 1945 Dreimühlen ).
Geographical location
The village is located ten kilometers northeast of the village of Kalinowo on an impasse on the provincial road 661 leading from Kalinowo to Wierzbowo near Zanie (Sanien , 1938 to 1945 Berndhöfen) . It is right on the border with the Podlaskie Voivodeship .
history
The village was founded in the spelling Socien 1493. The place name is probably of Prussian origin.
In 1656 the Tatars, allied with Poland, invaded Socien and caused severe destruction and the loss of a large part of the village population.
The spelling Sotzien prevailed around 1818 and Soczien at the end of the 19th century.
On May 27, 1874, as part of a Prussian community reform, a new district of Wiersbowen in the administrative district of Gumbinnen , from 1905 administrative district of Allenstein , was formed, which included the communities of Groß Czymochen , Kiehlen , Millewen , Sanien , Soczien, Thurowen , Wiersbowen and the manor district of Czymochen.
On December 1, 1910, there were 158 inhabitants in Soczien.
At the end of the First World War in 1918, a military cemetery was built near Soczien, which was previously located directly on the German-Russian and now on the German-Polish border .
Based on the provisions of the Versailles Treaty , the population in the Allenstein voting area , to which Soczien belonged, voted on July 11, 1920 on whether it would continue to belong to East Prussia (and thus to Germany) or join Poland. In Soczien, 100 residents voted to remain with East Prussia, Poland did not vote.
In 1933 there were 131 inhabitants in Soczien.
Soczien was in the wake of massive Eindeutschung on June 3, 1938 Masurian place names Baltic or Slavic origin in "Kechlersdorf" renamed .
From 1938 to 1945 Kechlersdorf was the seat of the head of the district of Waldwerder (formerly Wiersbowen) named Karl Reimann.
In 1939 Kechlersdorf (Soczien) had 139 inhabitants.
After the end of the Second World War in 1945, Kechlersdorf , which was part of the German Empire ( East Prussia ), fell to Poland. The resident German population, as far as they had not fled, was largely expelled or resettled after 1945 and, in addition to the traditional Masurian minority, replaced by new citizens from other parts of Poland, in particular from the Podlachian Raczki. The place Kechlersdorf was renamed "Zocie" according to the Polish spelling of the historical place name.
From 1975 to 1998, Zocie belonged to what was then the Suwałki Voivodeship , then joined the newly formed Warmian-Masurian Voivodeship in 1999 . Today it is the seat of a Schulzenamt ( Polish Sołectwo ) and thus a place within the rural community of Kalinowo .
