IÅ‚awa County

The powiat Iławski ( German Eylau ) is a powiat ( district ) in the southwestern part of the Polish Warmian-Masurian Voivodeship. It is predominantly of the Powiats Ostróda ( German: Osterode ) ( German: Neustadt ) in the east and Nowe Miasto enclosed in the south and further encounters with small lobes at Elbląg ( Elbing German ) in the north and Działdowo ( Soldau ) in the southeast. In the West, the provincial border of Warmia and Mazury runs; Iława borders here mostly in Pomerania, in the southwest to a small extent also to Kujawy.

The district area includes large parts of the former West Prussian district Rosenberg i Westpr. and the western part of the former East Prussian district Morag. The city Lobau belonged until 1920 to the West Prussian District Neumark (West Prussia ) and was incorporated into the Polish state on 10 January 1920 as part of the Polish Corridor. The remaining territories belonged until 1945 to the Prussian province of East Prussia.
