Stepnoje ( Russian Степное , German Powarben ) is a place in the Russian Oblast of Kaliningrad . It belongs to the municipal self-government unit of the Guryevsk District in Guryevsk Raion .
Geographical location
Stepnoje is located 20 kilometers northeast of the city of Kaliningrad (Königsberg) on the municipal road 27K-080 from Georgijewskoje (Konradshorst) to Sokolowka (Damerau) . Until 1945 Powarben was a train station on the Prawten – Schaaksvitte (Russian: Lomonossowo– Kaschirskoje ) railway of the Königsberg small railway , which is no longer in operation.
history
Gutsdorf, known as Powarben until 1946 , was founded in 1396. A Swabian imperial knight family von Hausen is mentioned as landowner for 1575 , in 1785 it was the fire society director Carl Jacob von Buddenbrock .
On April 30, 1874, Powarben became the eponymous place and seat of the newly created administrative district Powarben in the district of Königsberg (Prussia) in the district of Königsberg in the Prussian province of East Prussia .
During this time, the estate was leased to Leopold Heidenreich , and at the beginning of the 20th century Powarben was owned by the Bruhn family , who directed the manor house undergoing a neo-baroque renovation.
In 1910 the village had 114 inhabitants. 18 years later Powarben gave up its independence and was incorporated into the rural community of Molsehnen (today Russian: Kosmodemjanskoje). The district was dissolved on May 14, 1930.
On August 5, 1930, Paul Gerhard Goertz bought the estate, for which he gave up the previous property in Arnstein (now Polish: Jarzeń) in the Heiligenbeil district in 1934 . He was able to transform the previously desolate property into a flourishing business. In his house, the Prussian-Lithuanian poet, philosopher and theosophist Vydūnas (real name: Wilhelm Storost ) took refuge in 1944 from the air raids on Tilsit (now Russian: Sowetsk) in order to be able to work undisturbed and at the same time to teach the landlord's children.
On January 26, 1945, the Powarben inhabitants fled from the approaching Red Army troops , into whose hands the village fell a little later. Powarben came to the Soviet Union with all of northern East Prussia . In 1947 the place was given the Russian name Stepnoje and was assigned to the village soviet Kosmodemjanski selski Sowet in Gurjewsk Rajon . Later the place came into the Marschalski selski Sowet . From 2008 to 2013 Stepnoye belonged to the rural municipality Khrabrowskoje selskoje posselenije and since then to the urban district of Guryevsk.
