Kamionka [kaˈmjɔnka] (German: Steinersdorf) is a village in the administrative district of Gmina Iława, within Iława County, Warmian-Masurian Voivodeship, in northern Poland.[1]

Before 1945, the area was part of Germany (East Prussia). Kamionka was divided into the villages Klein Steinersdorf and the lake Silm (Silmsee/Jezioro Slim) and Gross Steinersdorf with lake Haus (Haussee/Jezioro Szymbarskie) and was in the district of the city Rosenberg (Susz). Following World War II the native German populace was expelled and replaced by Poles.

Today Kamionka (Jezioro Slim) is known for the ship handling and research and trainings center (http://www.ilawashiphandling.com.pl). Many people from the town Iława are knowing the region, because they are making their sport around the lake Slim (running, biking, walking). A walk around this lake is about 5,5 km.
