history
Before 1945, Groß Friedrichsdorf was an important market town with a church, cemetery, school and steam sawmill. On March 26, 1874, the place became Amtsdorf and gave its name to an administrative district that belonged to the Niederung district - from 1939 Elchniederung district - in the Gumbinnen administrative district of the Prussian province of East Prussia .
Groß Friedrichsdorf had 782 inhabitants in 1910. Their number rose to 873 by 1925, was 1063 in 1933 and was 1196 in 1939.
With all of northern East Prussia, Groß Friedrichsdorf came to the Soviet Union in 1945 as a result of the war and was given the Russian name Gastellowo in 1947 . At the same time the place became the seat of a village soviet in Slavsk Raion . From 2008 to 2015 Gastellowo belonged to the urban municipality of Slavskoje gorodskoje posselenije and since then to the urban district of Slavsk.

Gastellowski selski Sowet / okrug 1947–2008
The village soviet Gastellowski selski Sowet (ru. Гастелловский сельский Совет) was established in June 1947. After the collapse of the Soviet Union , the administrative unit existed as the village district Gastellowski selski okrug (ru. Гастелловский сельский округ). In 2008, the remaining places in the village district were divided between the rural municipality Bolshakowskoje selskoje posselenie and the urban municipality Slavskoje gorodskoje posselenije .

Church building
In 1867, Groß Friedrichsdorf received its first church: a round church made of wood with a tower top. It was replaced in 1903 by a new building built in neo-Romanesque style. The structure, made of red bricks , had a tower about 30 meters high. Today only the tower ruins and a wall fragment remain of this church. For a long time it was used as a storage room before the nave was torn down for the purpose of obtaining building materials.
Parish
A Protestant parish was founded in Groß Friedrichsdorf as early as 1854 and given its own pastorate in 1869. About 30 villages belonged to the parish , in which in 1925 5600 parishioners lived. Until 1945 the parish was part of the parish Niederung (Elchniederung) in the church province of East Prussia of the Church of the Old Prussian Union . Because of the flight and displacement of the local population as a result of the war and the restrictive religious policy of the Soviet Union, church life in today's Gastellowo collapsed. Now the village lies in the catchment area of the newly established Evangelical Lutheran congregation in Slavsk . The district town is the parish seat of the church region of the same name in the provost of Kaliningrad (Königsberg) of the Evangelical Lutheran Church of European Russia .
school
A new elementary school with six classrooms was built in Groß Friedrichsdorf from 1930 to 1933. Its simple, functional architecture refers to the contemporary new building . The building survived the Second World War, has not changed much and is still used as a school today.
