History

The town was established in 1292 by the Teutonic Knights.[6] In 1454, King Casimir IV Jagiellon incorporated the territory to the Kingdom of Poland upon the request of the anti-Teutonic Prussian Confederation.[7] After the subsequent Thirteen Years' War (1454–1466), it became a part of Poland as a fief held by the Teutonic Knights,[8] and by Ducal Prussia afterwards. The local church was consecrated in 1686. Lithuanian-language church services were held here.[9]

From 1701, it formed part of the Kingdom of Prussia, and in 1819 it became seat of the Prussian Elchniederung district. In 1871 it became part of Germany. In the late 19th century, it had a population of over 1,800, partially Lithuanian.[1] According to German data 16,000 Lithuanians lived in the district in 1890[10] (29% of the population). Two annual fairs were held in the town in the late 19th century.[1]
