Duhnau

Before 1945, the place formerly called Duhnau was only a small village on the west bank of the Western Canal (Russian: Sapadny Canal). Founded in 1365, the place was in 1874 in the newly established district of Bendiesen (Russian: Dalneje, no longer exists today). He belonged to the district of Labiau in the administrative district of Königsberg in the Prussian province of East Prussia . In 1910 Duhnau had 115 inhabitants.

Laying tendons

The village formerly called Legehnen was a suburb of the estate district of Domain Kaymen (1938-1946 Kaimen , Russian: Saretschje ) in the district of Bendiesen.

On September 30, 1928, the Duhnau community expanded to include the neighboring village of Legehnen. The number of inhabitants rose to 162 by 1933 and was still 132 in 1939. The town came to the Soviet Union as a result of the Second World War within northern East Prussia .
