history

The former Kermuschienen had 56 inhabitants in 1818, the number of which rose to 64 by 1863. It belongs to the founding communities of the district Wilhelmsberg (today Russian: Jablonowka) in 1874. Until 1945 the village was a rural community in this office in the district of Darkehmen (1938–1946 Angerapp ) in the Prussian province of East Prussia .

In 1907 there were 67 people living in Kermuschienen, in 1925 there were an impressive 214. But this number sank to 136 by 1933 and was only 132 in 1939.

On October 17, 1928, the neighboring town of Brindlacken (1938-1946 Kleinfritzenau , since 1946: Prudnoje) was incorporated into the rural community of Kermuschienen, which was renamed "Fritzenau" on June 3, 1938 - with official confirmation of July 16, 1938.

As a result of the Second World War , Fritzenau came under Soviet administration and in 1946 was given the new name "Prudnoje". Until 2009 it was incorporated into the Bagrationovsky soviet (Dorfsovjet Bagrationowo ( Wikischken , 1938-1946 Wiecken )) and then came as a "settlement" named place to Gavrilowskoje selskoje posselenije (rural community Gavrilowo) in Osjorsk district of the now Russian Kaliningrad Oblast .

church

The predominantly Protestant village of Kermuschienen / Fritzenau before 1945 was incorporated into the Wilhelmsberg parish (Russian: Jablonowka).
