Location in Kaliningrad Oblast

Lipowka ( Russian Липовка , German Grünwalde , Gallingen and Rosocken ) is a place in the Russian Oblast Kaliningrad in the urban district of Mamonowo . The former place Rosocken is deserted, however, it is located in the area of ​​the Bagrationovsk district .

Geographical location

Lipowka lies east of Mamonowo (Heiligenbeil) and south of the river Jarft (Russian: Wituschka ). It is only two to three kilometers to the Russian-Polish border.

The place Lipowka with its three districts connects a side street that leads from Mamonowo to Nowosjolowo (Groß Rödersdorf) on the trunk road R 516 (former Reichsautobahn Berlin-Königsberg ( "Berlinka" )). The next train station is Mamonowo on the route from Kaliningrad (Königsberg) to Malbork (Marienburg) in what is now Poland (part of the former Prussian Eastern Railway ).

history

After northern East Prussia was incorporated into the Soviet Union, the three places Grünwalde, Gallingen and Rosocken were given the common Russian name Lipowka in 1950 .

Grünwalde

The district formerly known as Grünwalde, Kreis Heiligenbeil , is seven kilometers from Mamonowo (Heiligenbeil) . On June 11, 1874, the small village was incorporated into the newly established administrative district Waltersdorf (now Polish: Pęciszewo ), to which it belonged until 1945. He was in the district of Heiligenbeil in the administrative district of Königsberg in the Prussian province of East Prussia .

In 1910 Grünwalde had 229 inhabitants. Their number rose to 232 by 1933 and was 228 in 1939.

Gallingen

The former district of Gallingen, district of Heiligenbeil, is eight kilometers from the city of Mamonowo (Heiligenbeil) . With its small farms and homesteads, the village came to the newly formed administrative district Deutsch Thierau (today Russian: Iwanzowo ) in the district of Heiligenbeil and the administrative district of Königsberg in the Prussian province of East Prussia, to which it remained until 1945. In 1910, 32 people lived in Gallingen.

On September 30, 1928 the villages of Gallingen, Mahlendorf (no longer existent today) and Rosocken (Russian also: Lipowka) merged to form the new rural community of Gallingen. The population rose to 150 by 1933 and was already 163 in 1939.

Rose socks

The former Rosocken branch is nine kilometers from Mamonowo (Heiligenbeil) . The place consisted of only a few courtyards when it was incorporated into the new administrative district Deutsch Thierau (Russian: Iwanzowo) in 1874. He belonged to the district of Heiligenbeil in the administrative district of Königsberg in the Prussian province of East Prussia. In 1910 there were 37 inhabitants registered in Rosocken.

On September 30, 1928 Rosocken lost its independence and was incorporated into the new rural community of Gallingen.

Lipowka

Simultaneously with the renaming, Lipowka was subordinated to the administration of Mamonowo , first to the local village soviet, then to the city soviet or the city administration and finally to the city district administration. The former Rosocken branch was probably abandoned around 1990.

church

Before 1945 the population in Grünwalde, Gallingen and Rosocken was predominantly of Protestant denomination. While Grünwalde was parish in the parish of Heiligenbeil (today in Russian: Mamonowo), Gallingen and Rosocken belonged to the parish of Deutsch Thierau (Iwanzowo). Both were in the church district of Heiligenbeil in the church province of East Prussia of the Church of the Old Prussian Union .

Due to the flight and displacement of the local population and the subsequent restrictive church policy of the Soviet Union , church life in Lipowka came to a virtual standstill. It was not until the 1990s that Protestant communities emerged again in the Kaliningrad Oblast , including those in Mamonowo (Heiligenbeil) , in whose catchment area Lipowka is located. It is a subsidiary of the Church of the Resurrection in Kaliningrad (Königsberg) and belongs to the Kaliningrad provost of the Evangelical Lutheran Church of European Russia (ELKER).
