history

Geidlauken (Heiligenhain)

The village, previously called Gedelauken , was first mentioned in 1318. On April 9, 1874, it became the official village and thus gave its name to a newly established district of Geidlauken, which - even after being renamed "District of Heiligenhain" in 1938 - belonged to the Labiau district in the Königsberg district of the Prussian province of East Prussia until 1945 . In 1910 there were 394 inhabitants registered in Geidlauken.

On September 30, 1929, the rural community of Geidlauken expanded when the Friedrichsfelde colony, previously part of the Neu Sternberg (Forst) estate, was incorporated. In 1933 there were 424 residents registered in the thus strengthened community, in 1939 - on June 3, 1938 already renamed "Heiligenhain" - there were 381.

Friedrichsfelde

The small town of Friedrichsfelde was founded in the same year as Burgsdorf (see below), namely in 1830. Before 1945 it consisted of several small farms. In 1874 this village also came to the district of Geidlauken as part of the Neu Sternberg manor district (forest). On September 30, 1929, the Friedrichsfelde colony was detached from the Neu Sternberg (Forst) district and incorporated into the rural community of Geidlauken.

Geidlauken district (Heiligenhain) 1874–1945

The Geidlauken district, newly established in 1874 - called "Heiligenhain District" from 1938 - originally consisted of six municipalities. In 1945 there were again six municipalities, despite or because of structural changes:

The number of its inhabitants was a constant 281 in 1933 and 1939.

Petruschkehmen (Kleinburgsdorf)

On September 30, 1929, the place was detached from the Neu Sternberg (Forst) district and incorporated into the newly formed rural community of Burgsdorf. On June 3, 1938 - officially confirmed on July 16 - the district was given the name "Kleinburgsdorf".

When a new parish was formed in Augstagirren in 1909 , Burgsdorf, Friedrichsfelde and Schönwalde were re-parish to the Augstagirren church , the other two stayed at Laukischken. Both parishes belonged to the parish of Labiau in the church province of East Prussia of the Church of the Old Prussian Union until 1945 .
