history
The village, called Wiskiauten until 1946, was first mentioned in 1291. In 1327 Johann from Wiskiauten was awarded a hoof in the “Sorcz” area, which is lined with blackberry bushes. In 1583 Gerge Thalau was enfeoffed with seven hooves, his heirs appear as owners until 1679, after which Nicolaus von Korff was one of the owners. Erhard Hirsch owned the Wiskiauten estate with Vorwerk Wickiau around 1700 (today in Russian: Klinzowka), after which it was owned by a family Oletzko , Thiesel von Taltitz , von Czudnochowski and von Hobegk . Under the von Rapp family , the estate was combined with Bledau (today in Russian: Sosnowka). In 1822, Wilhelm Ephraim Tortilowicz-Thierenberg bought Bledau, Wiskiauten and Wickiau at auction , and his family owned the estate with an area of 432 hectares until 1945.
On July 17, 1896, the district committee decided that the possessions of Nuskern (today Russian: Besymjanka), Wickiau (Klinzowka), Wiskiauten and Wosegau (Wischnjowoje) together formed the manor district of Wosegau. They belonged therefore to the District Wosegau in district Fischhausen in the administrative district of Konigsberg the Prussian province of East Prussia . On January 1, 1929, the Wosegau districts of Wickiau and Wiskiauten were finally reclassified into the municipality of Cranz (Selenogradsk), which from 1939 belonged to the Samland district .
As a result of the Second World War , Wiskiauten came to the Soviet Union with northern East Prussia . In 1947 the place was named Mochowoje and was assigned at the same time to the village soviet Cholmski selski Sowet in Primorsk Raion . Later the place came to the Vishnevsky selski Sowet . From 2005 to 2015 Mochowoje belonged to the rural municipality of Kovrovskoje selskoje posselenije and since then to the city district of Zelenogradsk.

In the north and north-east of Mochowoje, in the Kaup forest area , over 500 tombs from the Viking Age were found in the middle of the 19th century . They are located in the Wiskiauten burial ground and are still being researched today.

The residents of Wiskiautens were mostly of Protestant denomination until 1945 and belonged to the parish Laptau (today Russian: Muromskoje) in the parish of Königsberg-Land II within the church province of East Prussia of the Church of the Old Prussian Union . Today Mochowoje is located in the catchment area of the newly formed Evangelical Lutheran congregation in Zelenogradsk (Cranz) , a branch congregation of the Church of the Resurrection in Kaliningrad (Königsberg) within the Kaliningrad provost of the Evangelical Lutheran Church of European Russia .
