Vysokoye ( Russian Высокое , German Pogauen ) is a place in the Russian Oblast Kaliningrad . It belongs to the municipal self-government unit of the Guryevsk District in Guryevsk Raion .
Geographical location
Vysokoye is located 18 kilometers east of Kaliningrad (Königsberg) on the municipal road 27K-031 (old route of the federal road A229 , former German Reich road 1 ). In town, the municipal road 27K-215 branches off to Dworki (Rogahnen) south of the new route of the A 229. Until 1945, the village, then still called Pogauen , was a train station on the railway line from Königsberg (Prussia) and Prawten (Russian: Lomonossowo) to Possinder (Roschtschino) ) and Tapiau (Gwardeisk) of the Königsberger Kleinbahn , which is no longer in operation today.
history
The place called Pogauen until 1946 was founded in 1400. In 1874 the village came to the newly established district of Heiligenwalde (Russian: Uschakowo) in the district of Königsberg (Prussia) (1939 to 1945 district of Samland ) in the district of Königsberg in the Prussian province of East Prussia . In 1910 Pogauen had 248 inhabitants.
On November 15, 1928, the rural communities of Pogauen and Rogahnen (Russian: Dworki) and the manor district of Groß Hohenrade (Vorobjowo) merged to form the new rural community of Pogauen. In 1933 420 and 1939 432 people lived there.
As a result of the Second World War , Pogauen came to the Soviet Union with all of northern East Prussia . In 1947 the place was given the Russian name Vysokoye and was assigned at the same time to the village soviet Nisowski selski Sowet in Gurjewsk Rajon . From 2008 to 2013 Vysokoye belonged to the rural municipality Nizovskoye selskoje posselenije and since then to the urban district of Guryevsk.
