Geographical location
Lunino is four kilometers northwest of Znamensk (Wehlau) on the north bank of the Pregel (Russian: Pregolja). A connecting road runs through the village from Prudnoje on the Russian trunk road R 514 to trunk road A 229 , the former German Reichsstrasse 1 , which is now also European routes E 28 and E 77 . The next train station is Snamensk on the Kaliningrad – Nesterow (Königsberg – Stallupönen / Ebenrode) line of the former Prussian Eastern Railway .
Place name
The name "Sanditten" indicates the place as a Prussian settlement, whereby the ending "-itten" means Prussian "place", the prefix means a personal name like "Sande" or "Sandutte".
history
Finds from prehistoric times show that the area of the place called Sanditten until 1946 was an old settlement area. In 1928, a few hundred meters west of Sanditten, a hill and shallow burial ground was discovered that pointed back to the Bronze Age . Researcher Carl Engel carried out an examination of at least one hundred graves between 1929 and 1932 .
The von Schlieben family plays an important role in the history of Sanditten . At the beginning of the Prussian City War , Georg von Schlieben joined Christoph , Magnus and Conrad von Schlieben as mercenary leaders with 557 men in the service of the Teutonic Order . Georg von Schlieben was then an envoy of the order at the Second Peace of Thorn in 1466. As a result, the family members in 1469 received town and castle Gerdauen (today Russian: Schelesnodoroschny) and Nordenburg (Krylowo), to whom large parts of the later districts of Gerdauen and Darkehmen received further prescriptions followed.
In 1552 Wolf von Tippelskirche was awarded the village of Sanditten. His son sold the property in 1581 to Christoph von Schlieben , whose family descendants kept the Sanditten property until 1945.
The baroque palace in Sanditten was built under Georg Christoph Graf von Schlieben at the beginning of the 18th century. The builder is unknown. In 1830 the building was given a classical portico with a porch. On the night of September 12th to 13th, 1856, King Friedrich Wilhelm IV stayed here on the way to the church inauguration in Schirwindt (today in Russian: Kutusowo). A few years later the crown prince and later king stayed here, although he was not received in the castle, but had a picnic in a clearing in the Sanditter forest. In both the First and the Second World War the castle was deprived of valuable inventory of Russians. The last man on Sanditten was Georg Günther Graf von Schlieben . Before 1945 the farm had a size of around 2,250 hectares.
The castle survived the Second World War and then served as a prison camp. In 1951 it was blown up and largely destroyed. There are still ruins of the house, including some farm buildings that are still in use.
On June 13, 1874, Sanditten became the eponymous place for a newly established district . It belonged to 1945 the county Wehlau in the administrative district of Konigsberg the Prussian province of East Prussia . In addition to the manor district Sanditten with the districts Adamsheide, Oppen dem Vorwerk Zargen (today Russian: Istrowka), the rural communities Pelohnen (Wyborgskoje, no longer existent) and Schaberau (also: Istrowka) were incorporated. The number of residents of Sanditten was 659 in 1910.
On November 1, 1928, the three places incorporated into the district of Sanditten merged to form the new rural community Sanditten. The number of inhabitants was already 766 in 1933 and 789 in 1939.
Northern East Prussia, and with it Sanditten, came to the Soviet Union in 1945 . The place was given the Russian name "Lunino" in 1946 and was assigned to the newly created Rajon Gwardeisk ( Tapiau district ) in 1947. In the same year, Lunino was incorporated into the Sorinski selski soviet (Dorfsovjet Sorino (Poppendorf) ). Due to a structural and administrative reform, Lunino is today with its 146 inhabitants (as of October 14, 2010) a "settlement" (Russian: possjolok) classified place within the newly formed Sorinskoje selskoje posselenije (rural municipality Sorino) with seat in Talpaki (Taplacken ) .
church
Before 1945, Sanditten's population was predominantly Protestant . The village belonged to the parish of the church in Petersdorf (Russian: Kuibyschewskoje ) in the church district Wehlau (Snamensk) in the church province of East Prussia of the Church of the Old Prussian Union . Today, Lunino is in the catchment area of two Evangelical Lutheran congregations that arose in the 1990s: Bolschaja Poljana (Paterswalde) and Gwardeisk (Tapiau) , both sub -congregations of the Resurrection Church in Kaliningrad (Königsberg) in the Kaliningrad provost of the Evangelical Lutheran Church European Russia .
