High Prussian (German: Hochpreußisch) is the group of East Central German dialects in former East Prussia in present-day Warmian-Masurian Voivodeship Poland. High Prussian developed in the 13th–15th centuries brought in by German settlers mainly from Silesia and Thuringia and was influenced by the Baltic Old Prussian language.
