history
Galbrasten (Dreifurt)
Today's district of Liwenskojes, formerly known as Galbrasten , is located directly on the shed and before 1945 consisted of many very scattered large and small farms. On April 15, 1874, the village was its name to a newly built office district , which the district Ragnit in Administrative district Gumbinnen the Prussian province of East Prussia belonged. On October 15, 1909, this district was dissolved, and Galbrasten was incorporated into the newly formed district Wedereitischken (the place was called between 1938 and 1946: Sandkirchen, today in Russian: Timofejewo). This joined the newly formed district of Tilsit-Ragnit on July 1, 1922 .
In 1910 there were 537 inhabitants registered in Galbrasten. Their number rose to 572 by 1933 and was still 541 in 1939. On June 3 - officially confirmed on July 16 - of the year 1938, Galbrasten was renamed "Dreifurt" for political and ideological reasons to defend against foreign-sounding place names. In 1945 the village and all of northern East Prussia were transferred to the Soviet Union .
Galbrasten District (1874–1909)
Between 1874 and 1909 there was the independent Galbrasten District , to which four communities belonged:

Dr. Rosenkrantz Bridge
Galbrasten was mainly due to its bridge over the Scheschuppe Wedereitischken (from 1938 to 1946: Timofejewo: Sand churches now) significantly towards. It was built from wood in 1923, but had to be dismantled every autumn because otherwise it would be endangered by floods and ice in spring. In the summer of 1926 it collapsed for unexplained reasons during repair work. There were numerous dead and injured. The district government felt compelled to build a solid concrete bridge. It was inaugurated in 1928 and was named Dr. Rosenkrantz Bridge . Today's bridge rests on its foundations.
Kragelischken (Kragelingen)
The part of today's Liwenskojes, once called Kragelischken , was only a small courtyard before 1945, which was a residential area in the municipality of Galbrasten (Dreifurt). Kragelischken, which was given the name Kragelingen in 1938 , was closely connected in its history with the mother community. The place was part of the district of Ragnit , from 1922 of the district of Tilsit-Ragnit in the administrative district of Gumbinnen in the Prussian province of East Prussia . In 1945 he was also assigned to the Soviet Union .
Livenskoye
In 1947, Galbrasten was renamed Liwenskoje and the place was also the seat of a village soviet in Krasnosnamensk Raion . The renaming of the place took place after the origin of the new settlers from the Liwny Rajon in the Russian Oblast Oryol . The village soviet Liwenski selski Sowet was dissolved again in 1954. As a result, the place came into the Timofejewski selski Sowet . In the 1976 list of the Kaliningrad Oblast, the former German town of Kragelischken was also included in Livenskoye. This local office has now been abandoned. From 2008 to 2015 Livenskoye belonged to the rural municipality Alexejewskoje selskoje posselenije and since then it has belonged to the Krasnosnamensk district.
church
Galbrasten resp. Dreifurt and Kragelischken resp. Before 1945, Kragelingen were parished into the parish of the Wedereitischken church (the place was called Sandkirchen between 1938 and 1946, today in Russian: Timofejewo) due to their almost exclusively Protestant population . This was part of the diocese of Ragnit in the church district of Tilsit-Ragnit within the church province of East Prussia of the Church of the Old Prussian Union . Today, Liwenskoje is located in the extensive catchment area of the newly formed Evangelical Lutheran congregation in Sabrodino (Lesgewangminnen , 1938 to 1946 Lesgwangen) , which belongs to the Kaliningrad provost (Königsberg) of the Evangelical Lutheran Church of European Russia .
