Geographical location
Okhotnoye is located 14 kilometers southwest of the district town of Slavsk (Heinrichswalde) and six kilometers northwest of Bolshakowo on a side road that leads from Bolshakowo to Gastellowo (Groß Friedrichsdorf) . Bolshakovo is also the nearest train station and is on the Kaliningrad – Sovetsk line (Koenigsberg – Tilsit) .
history
The image of the East Prussian village of Liedemeiten , which was quite small at the time, was shaped by a sawmill and a windmill , both economically important factors for the life of the population. When the district of Osseningken (from 1931: Grünau, Russian: Ossinowka, no longer existed) was established in 1874, Liedemeiten was assigned to it and thus belonged to the Niederung district until 1945 - even after it was renamed to "district of Grünau" in 1931 ( which was called " Kreis Elchniederung " from 1938 ) in the administrative district of Gumbinnen in the Prussian province of East Prussia . On June 3 - officially confirmed on July 16 - in 1938, Liedemeiten was renamed "Gerhardsweide", and that for purely political and ideological reasons to avoid foreign-sounding place names.
As a result of the war, the place came to the Soviet Union with northern East Prussia in 1945 . In 1947 it was given the Russian name "Okhotnoye" and was assigned to the Bolshakovsky selski Sowet in Bolshakovo Raion at the same time . Okhotnoye has belonged to Slavsk Raion since 1963 . Before 1975, the place expanded after the Second World War changed to the Gastellowski selski Sowet . From 2008 to 2015 Okhotnoye belonged to the rural municipality of Bolshakovskoye selskoje posselenije and since then to the urban district of Slavsk.

church
Until 1945 the majority Protestant population was Liedemeitens resp. Gerhardsweides parish in the parish of the Skaisgirren church with the parish seat in Groß Skaisgirren (1938 to 1946: Kreuzingen, now Russian: Bolschakowo) and thus belonged to the lowland (elk lowland ) within the church province of East Prussia of the Church of the Old Prussian Union . Even today Okhotnoye is again in the ecclesiastical catchment area of Bolshakovo, where a new Evangelical Lutheran congregation was formed in the 1990s. It is a branch parish in the ecclesiastical region of the Salzburg Church in Gussew (Gumbinnen) within the Kaliningrad provost of the Evangelical Lutheran Church of European Russia .
