Bludzie Małe [ˈblud͡ʑɛ ˈmawɛ] (German Klein Forsthausen; until 1938: Klein Bludschen) is a village in the administrative district of Gmina Dubeninki, within Gołdap County, Warmian-Masurian Voivodeship, in northern Poland, close to the border with the Kaliningrad Oblast of Russia.[1] It lies approximately 4 kilometres (2 mi) north of Dubeninki, 18 km (11 mi) east of Gołdap, and 149 km (93 mi) north-east of the regional capital Olsztyn.
