Sterławki Wielkie [stɛrˈwafki ˈvjɛlkʲɛ] is a village in the administrative district of Gmina Ryn, within Giżycko County, Warmian-Masurian Voivodeship, in northeastern Poland.
The town was burned down during an invasion of East Prussia by the Crimean Tatars in 1656, but was recovered by the Germans in 1661.
In 1874 it became a German administrative town (Amtsdorf) belonging to the district of Lötzen (now Giżycko, Poland), which it remained until the border changes of 1945.
After the war, on July 11, 1920, the East Prussian plebiscite, mandated by the Versailles Treaty, was held in the District of Allenstein (now Olzstyn).
After World War II, southern East Prussia was assigned to Poland under border changes promulgated at the Potsdam Conference in July–August 1945.
