History

Małe Olecko was founded in 1541 by Bartosz Leśnicki from Mazovia, who bought land to establish a village.[1][2] In 1867, it had a population of 535, 93.8% Polish.[1] In 1938, during a massive campaign of renaming of placenames, the government of Nazi Germany renamed it to Herzogshöhe in attempt to erase traces of Polish origin.[2] In 1939, it had a population of 518.[2] Following Germany's defeat in World War II, in 1945, the village became again part of Poland and its historic name was restored.
