history
The place lies in the historical landscape of Bessarabia . The area of Bessarabia came in 1812 in the Treaty of Bucharest from the Ottoman vassal state of Moldova together with the Budschak to the Russian Empire . The new acquisition was treated as a colonization area and initially assigned to the Governor General of New Russia . In a manifesto of 1813, Tsar Alexander I called German colonists into the country to colonize the newly won steppe areas in New Russia. German emigrants founded Kulm here in 1815. The place belongs to the 24 Bessarabian German mother colonies. They were established by immigrants, while daughter colonies were later established by residents of the mother colonies. The emigrants with 124 families with a total of 520 people who settled here in 1815 came from the Kingdom of Poland, where they had settled from Pomerania, Mecklenburg and Württemberg at the end of the 18th century. They set out for Bessarabia by land in 1814. Once there, the Russian authorities initially placed them in Moldovan villages. In the fall of 1815, the construction of the houses began on the planned settlement area, which was on a mountain. The soil was very fertile and the springs made for good harvests when growing maize. In 1831 the residents built a house of prayer and the first school. In 1868 a church was consecrated for 1700 churchgoers.
After the Soviet occupation of Bessarabia in the summer of 1940, covered by the Hitler-Stalin Pact , the Bessarabian German residents joined the resettlement to the German Reich in autumn 1940 under the motto Heim ins Reich .
