history
The village of Groß Warningken was first mentioned in 1517. It was a small place that became an official village on April 8, 1874, giving it its name to an administrative district . The Groß Warningken district was renamed in 1939 to "Steinkirch district" and until 1945 belonged to the Pillkallen district (1939 to 1945 "Landkreis Schloßberg (Ostpr.)") In the Gumbinnen district of the Prussian province of East Prussia .
Groß Warningken had 308 inhabitants in 1910. Their number decreased to 232 by 1933 and - after the village was renamed "Steinkirch" on June 3, 1938 - only 217.
As a result of the war, the place came to the Soviet Union in 1945 with all of northern East Prussia . A year later he was given the Russian name “Sabolotnoje” and “moved” from the Schloßberg district to the newly created Nesterow district ( Stallupönen district, Ebenrode district from 1939 to 1945 ). At the same time, Sabolotnoye was incorporated into the newly formed Prigorodni selski soviet (Dorfsovjet Prigorodnoje (Petrikatschen , 1938 to 1946 Schützenort) ). Sabolotnoye was still inhabited for a short time, but was then abandoned.

Church building
Groß Warningken was given a church in 1895. It was built in neo-Romanesque style - as a brick building with an altar niche that was just closed . The square tower , which ended in an octagonal point, was in front. The house of God was only allowed to exist for fifty years. The Second World War and the post-war period did not allow the building to survive. Today his traces are lost in the truest sense of the word "in the sand".
Parish
The Protestant parish in Groß Warningken was founded in 1863. However, 32 years passed before the church was built. The pastor's post was only then filled. The parish belonging to the parish church consisted of 22 villages, localities and residential areas, new ones in the Stallupönen (Ebenrode) district, the rest in the Pillkallen (Schloßberg) district. The parish was without patronage . In 1925 it had a total of 3,120 parish members and until 1945 belonged to the Pillkallen parish within the church province of East Prussia of the Church of the Old Prussian Union .
