Żytkiejmy

Żytkiejmy ([ʐɨtˈkʲɛi̯mɨ]; Lithuanian: Žydkiemis, literally Jewish courtyard) is a village in the administrative district of Gmina Dubeninki, within Gołdap County, Warmian-Masurian Voivodeship, in north-eastern Poland, close to the border with Lithuania and the Kaliningrad Oblast of Russia. It lies approximately 10 kilometres (6 mi) north-east of Dubeninki, 25 km (16 mi) east of Gołdap, and 156 km (97 mi) north-east of the regional capital Olsztyn.

In the past, it was also known in Polish as Szytkiejmy.

Three annual fairs were held in the village in the late 19th century.
