Susz, Medieval town in Warmian-Masurian Voivodeship, Poland

Susz extends across 6.67 square kilometers of terrain, positioned on the northern and western shores of Suskie Lake in northern Poland.

The settlement originated from a Baltic Prussian community called Susse, later becoming part of the Kingdom of Poland in 1454 under King Casimir IV Jagiellon.

The municipal coat of arms displays a prominent rose symbol, reflecting the German name Rosenberg, which translates to rose hill in English.

The town maintains extensive genealogical records and vital registers dating from 1808 to 1826, accessible through local archives for family research.

During World War II, the town contained a subcamp of the Stutthof concentration camp before returning to Polish administration.
