Barsukowka ( Russian Барсуковка , German Bartukeiten , 1938 to 1945 Bartenhöh , Lithuanian Bartukaičiai ) is a place in the Russian Oblast Kaliningrad . It belongs to the local government unit Stadtkreis Neman in Nemansky District .
Geographical location
Barsukowka is located six kilometers south of the city of Sovetsk (Tilsit) east of the - currently not operated - railway line Chernyakhovsk - Sovetsk (Insterburg - Tilsit) . Before 1945 the next train station was Pamletten (Russian: Strelotschnoje). Because the associated place no longer exists, the station is now called "Barsukowka". An impassable road leads from the Russian trunk road A 216 (former German Reichsstrasse 138 , now also Europastrasse 77 ) directly into town.
history
The village once called Bartukeiten consisted of a few large farms before 1945. In 1874 the village was incorporated into the newly established Ballgarden district (the place no longer exists today). Soon after, renamed "District Kallkappen" he was part of the circle Ragnit in Administrative district Gumbinnen the Prussian province of East Prussia .
The district of Kallkappen was dissolved on March 24, 1921 and the village of Bartukeiten was integrated into the new district of Moritzkehmen (the place was called "Moritzhöhe" between 1938 and 1946 and no longer exists), which came to the district of Tilsit-Ragnit on July 1, 1922 . The Moritzkehmen district only existed for four years and was dissolved on October 21, 1925. Bartukeiten now became part of the new Bendiglauken district, which was renamed "Bendigsfelde district" from 1939 (the place no longer exists today) and existed until 1945.
In 1910 there were officially 121 people living in Bartukeiten. On October 1, 1928, the village lost its independence and was incorporated into the neighboring village of Pamletten (Russian: Strelotschnoje, no longer existing). On June 3rd - officially approved on July 16th - in 1938 Bartukeiten was renamed "Bartenhöh" for political and ideological reasons.
After the village came to the Soviet Union in 1945 as a result of the war , it was given the Russian name Barsukowka in 1947 . At the same time, the place was included in the village Soviet Novokolchosnenski selski Sowet in Sovetsk Raion . From 2008 to 2016 the place belonged to the rural municipality of Shilinskoje selskoje posselenije and since then to the urban district of Neman.
church
As almost everywhere in East Prussia , the vast majority of the population was Bartukeitens resp. Bartenhöhs Protestant denomination. Before 1945 the village was thus incorporated into the parish of the Lithuanian Church in Tilsit (Tilsit country). It was part of the Tilsit diocese in the church district Tilsit-Ragnit , which belonged to the church province of East Prussia of the Church of the Old Prussian Union . Today Barsukowka is in the catchment area of the Evangelical Lutheran congregation in Slavsk (Heinrichswalde) within the provost of Kaliningrad (Königsberg) of the Evangelical Lutheran Church of European Russia .
