Krasnowka can be reached via a side road that leads from Chernyachovsk to Telmanowo (Didlacken , 1938–1946 Dittlacken) .

history

The place called Schernuppen and later Birkenfeld was founded in 1613. 1874 place in the newly built was District Didlacken (Telmanowo 1938-1946: Dittlacken, now Russian) incorporated, which the district Insterburg in Administrative district Gumbinnen the Prussian province of East Prussia belonged. In 1910 there were 25 residents registered in the village of Birkenfeld.

On September 30, 1928, the manor district of Birkenfeld, two kilometers to the northeast, was incorporated from the district of Waldhausen (Russian: Pastuchowo, also the name of the nearby railway station) into the rural community of Birkenfeld, so that the total number of inhabitants in 1933 was 149.

On April 1, 1939, Birkenfeld lost its independence when it was incorporated into the neighboring village of Siegmundsfelde (until 1938: Groß Siegmuntinnen, Russian: Baikal, no longer existent).

As a result of the war, Birkenfeld came to the Soviet Union with northern East Prussia in 1945 and was given the Russian name Krasnovka in 1950. At the same time, the place was incorporated into the village soviet Swobodnenski selski Sowet in Chernyakhovsk Raion . In the period that followed, however, only the village of Birkenfeld was apparently identified with Krasnowka, while the Birkenfeld estate was given the Russian name Prigorodny. This name (dt. About Beistadtort) obviously referred to the nearby Chernyakhovsk . The place Krasnowka shifted however about two kilometers west to the railway line Toruń – Tschernjachowsk , where before 1945 a station guard had been and later the stopping point Op 8 km existed temporarily, while the local point Birkenfeld was left. At times, the actual Krasnovka railway station, just under two kilometers to the northeast, was run as an independent settlement. In 1997 Prigorodny and the Krasnovka railway station were (again) connected to Krasnovka.

From 2008 to 2015 Krasnovka belonged to the municipal municipality of Chernyakhovskoye gorodskoje posselenije and since then to the city district of Chernyakhovsk.

With its predominantly Protestant population, Birkenfeld was parish before 1945 in the parish of the Luther Church Insterburg .
