Wiśniowo Ełckie [viɕˈɲɔvɔ ˈɛu̯t͡skʲɛ] is a village in the administrative district of Gmina Prostki, within Ełk County, Warmian-Masurian Voivodeship, in northern Poland.
The origins of the village date back to 1486, when Gotard Korbowski was granted 66 włókas of land to establish a village.
[2] Under Nazi Germany, the village was renamed Kölmersdorf to erase traces of Polish origin, and was the location of two labour camps of the Reich Labour Service.
[3] Following World War II, in 1945, the village became again part of Poland, and its historic Polish name[2] was restored with the addition of the adjective Ełckie after the nearby county seat of Ełk to distinguish it from other villages of the same name.
