Klusajny [kluˈsai̯nɨ] is a village in the administrative district of Gmina Orneta, within Lidzbark County, Warmian-Masurian Voivodeship, in northern Poland.[1] It lies approximately 5 km (3 mi) west of Orneta, 35 km (22 mi) west of Lidzbark Warmiński, and 47 km (29 mi) north-west of the regional capital Olsztyn.

Before 1772 the area was part of Kingdom of Poland, and in 1772–1945 it belonged to Prussia and Germany (East Prussia). The suffix -hagen of the historic village name is typical for settlements founded by Germans during Medieval Ostsiedlung.[2]
