Mostowoje is located on the Gilge (Russian: Matrossowka), 13 kilometers northwest of the district town of Slavsk (Heinrichswalde) .

history
The village, formerly known as Sköpen , was of national importance even before 1945 due to its bridge over the Gilge and a ship mooring. On March 26, 1874, the place became Amtsdorf and thus gave its name to a newly established administrative district that existed until 1945 and belonged to the Niederung district (from 1939 "Elchniederung district") in the Gumbinnen administrative district of the Prussian province of East Prussia .
As a result of the war, Sköpen came to the Soviet Union with northern East Prussia in 1945 . The place was given the Russian name "Mostowoje" in 1947 and was assigned at the same time to the village soviet Jasnowski selski Sowet in Slavsk Raion . From 2008 to 2015 Mostowoje belonged to the rural municipality Yasnovskoye selskoje posselenije and since then to the urban district of Slavsk.
