history

Bludau, east of Fischhausen on the north bank of the Frischen Haff , on a map from 1910 (see left half of the picture)

The West Samland village of Bludau was founded in 1258. A rampart south-east of the village, as well as a burial ground discovered nearby, point to a Prussian past. In the East Prussian district of Braunsberg there was also a village called "Bludau" (= Błudowo , located in the powiat Elbląski (district of Elbing ) in the Polish Warmian-Masurian Voivodeship ), and both places have something to do with the Bludau family . In 1298 a knight named Hermann von Bludau (coming from Bohemia or Moravia ) was first mentioned in a document in the Braunsberg district . His son Jakob von Bludau became the fifth bishop of the Samland . His brother Sandner von Bludau was prescribed in 1344 in the Samland Bludau Land.

In 1874, Bludau was incorporated into the newly established Kallen district (today in Russian: Zwetnoje). On September 30, 1928, Bludau expanded into the new rural community of Bludau, merging with the rural community of Kaspershöfen (now Russian: Doroschnoje) and the manor district of Forken (Porodoschnoje). Bludau belonged until 1939 Circle Fischhausen and 1939 to 1945 County Samland in the administrative district of Konigsberg the Prussian province of East Prussia .

As a result of the war, Bludau came to the Soviet Union with northern East Prussia in 1945 and was given the Russian name "Kostrowo" in 1947. At the same time, the place was classified in the village soviet Svetlovsky selski Sowet in Primorsk Raion . From 1949 to 1959, the place probably belonged to the village soviets Logwinski selski Sowet and Zwetnikowski selski Sowet . While there were only a few houses left of the once flourishing village of Bludau after the war, new houses were built in a Russian settlement in the 1950s. Presumably in 1959 the place was incorporated into the Powarowski selski Sowet .

In the first half of the 1990s Kostrowo became the seat of a village district. From 2005 to 2015 the place belonged to the rural municipality Pereslavskoje selskoje posselenije and since then it belonged to the city district of Zelenogradsk.

Kostrowski selski okrug 1995-2005

The village district Kostrowski selski okrug (ru. Костровский сельский округ) was established in 1995 at the latest. It included five places that had previously belonged to the village soviet Powarowski selski sovet . In 2005 the places of the village district were incorporated into the newly formed rural municipality Pereslavskoje selskoje posselenije .

school

Before 1945 there was a two-class school in Bludau since 1841. The school building on the road to Fischhausen, which no longer exists today, had a teacher's apartment. The remuneration of the schoolmasters was shared between the neighboring villages of Geidau (today in Russian: Prosorowo) and Bludau. Today there is a multi-class school in Kostrowo in the area between the trunk road and the railway line, which leads to the Abitur.

church

With its almost exclusively Protestant population, Bludau was parish until 1945 in the parish of the Fischhausen Church (East Prussia) (today in Russian: Primorsk ). It belonged to the Fischhausen parish in the church province of East Prussia of the Church of the Old Prussian Union . Today Kostrowo is in the catchment area of ​​the Evangelical Lutheran congregation in Swetly (Zimmerbude) , a branch of the Resurrection Church in Kaliningrad (Königsberg) in the Kaliningrad provost of the Evangelical Lutheran Church of European Russia .
