The village once called Kropiens was founded in 1405.

On May 14, 1930, the rural community of Kropiens was reclassified from the Damerau district to the Gallgarben district (Russian: Marschalskoje), which initially also belonged to the Königsberg district, but from 1939 to 1945 it belonged to the Samland district .
