Louisenwerth is the name of an orphaned local authority in Pravdinsk Raion within the Russian Oblast of Kaliningrad .

Geographical location

The Louisenwerth desert is located on the east bank of the river Stogowka ( German  Omet ) in the southern center of the Kaliningrad Oblast , seven kilometers southeast of the former district town of Gerdauen ( Russian Schelesnodoroschny ) and 28 kilometers southeast of today's Rajon town Prawdinsk ( German  Friedland (Ostpr.) ).

history

In 1419 a church, a jug and a mill were mentioned in the village of Assaunen (now Asuny in Polish ) . Only later - around 1800 - the mill was given the name "Louisenwerth".

On April 1, 1874, the Louisenwerth Vorwerk was reclassified from the Heiligenstein manor district ( Ŝwięty Kamień in Polish ) to the Posegnick manor district ( Sori in Russian , today a desert) in the East Prussian district of Kanoten ( Kanoty in Polish , no longer existent) in the Gerdauen district. In 1905 Louisenwerth had 90 inhabitants.

As a result of the Second World War , Louisenwerth came to the Soviet Union . It was right on the newly drawn border with Poland and was not repopulated in the 1950s.

church

Until 1945 Louisenwerth was parish in the parish of the Evangelical Church Assaunen in the church province of East Prussia of the Church of the Old Prussian Union and in the Roman Catholic Church of St. Bruno Insterburg (Russian: Chernyachovsk ) in the Diocese of Warmia .

traffic

Louisenwerth is located on a side road - today interrupted by the Russian-Polish border - which connected the East Prussian villages of Assaunen (now Asuny in Polish ) and Wandlacken (now in Russian Swerewo ) and crossed the Stogowka ( German Omet ) river in Louisenwerth . In wall paint she came across Reichsstraße 131 (today's Russian regional road 27A-083, ex A 196 ), which connected Königsberg (Prussia) (Russian: Kaliningrad ) with southeastern East Prussia.  

Before 1945, Wandlacken was also the nearest train station. It was on the Königsberg – Angerburg railway line , which is no longer used today.
