history

The place called Neinischken at the time was founded before 1578. In 1874 the town District village and its name to a newly constructed was the district of which the district Insterburg in Administrative district Gumbinnen the Prussian province of East Prussia belonged.

In 1910 there were 438 residents registered in Neunischken. Their number decreased to 373 by 1933 and was also 373 in 1939.

On June 3, 1938, Neunischken - with official confirmation of July 16, 1938 - was renamed "Neunassau" for political and ideological reasons. On September 13, 1938, the district also received the new location identifier.

As a result of the Second World War , the village came to the Soviet Union with northern East Prussia in 1945 . In 1947 it was given the Russian name "Privolnoye" and was assigned to the Kaluschski selski Sowet in the Chernyakhovsk district at the same time . From 2008 to 2015 Privolnoye belonged to the rural municipality of Kalushskoje selskoje posselenije and since then to the urban district of Chernyakhovsk.

church

Church building

The Reformed Church in Neunischken, which is still preserved today, but has now been misappropriated, was handed over to its intended use on October 31, 1873 ( Reformation Day ), after the service had taken place in a chapel since 1754 and in a small church from 1809. It is a Gothic- style building with a bell tower. One of the oldest items of equipment was a goblet and a wine jug from 1708 that belonged to the former Polish Reformed community in Königsberg (Prussia) . The current building is stable.

Parish

A Reformed parish was formed in Neunischken from colonists from Switzerland and Nassau . It was initially supplied from Insterburg (Russian: Tschernjachowsk) from 1748 and was a branch church of the Reformed Church Insterburg (today: Archangel Michael Church of the Russian Orthodox Church in Tschernjachowsk) until 1853 . In 1925, 650 parishioners belonged to the parish of Neunischken, and the church patronage was royal.

The parish of Neunischken belonged to the church province of East Prussia of the Church of the Old Prussian Union , but was not part of the church district Insterburg , but the German Reformed Inspection Königsberg, later called the "Reformed church district".

After the flight and expulsion of the local population as a result of the Second World War and due to anti-religious policies of the Soviet Union , church life in Privolnoye collapsed. Today the place is in the catchment area of ​​two Evangelical Lutheran congregations in Chernyakhovsk and in Shtschegly (Lesgewangminnen , 1938-1946 Lesgewangen) in the church region of Chernyakhovsk and Gussew (Gumbinnen) , both of which belong to the provost of Kaliningrad in the Evangelical Lutheran Church belonging to European Russia .

Parish places

Before 1945, the Neunischken parish (or Neunassau) included the Reformed inhabitants of Auxkallnehnen (1938–1946: Blumenbach, Russian: Owraschnaja-Nowaja), Kurreiten (1938–1946: Finkengrund, Russian: Schuschenskoje), Neunischken (Neunassau) and Stablacken ( Russian: Trudowoje) and the localities of the parishes Georgenburg (Russian: Majowka), Grünheide (Kaluschskoje) and Pelleningken (1938–1946: Strigengrund, Russian: Sagorskoje).

Pastor

Between 1854 and 1945, the following were Reformed clergy at the Neunischken Church:

  • Karl Julius Franz Kreiß, 1854–1875
  • Johann Friedrich Schenk, 1875–1910
  • Kurt Knorr, from 1910

In the last years before 1945 Neunassau was looked after from Insterburg.

Church records

Many of the church registers survived the war. Today they are kept in the Evangelical Central Archive in Berlin-Kreuzberg :

  • Baptisms: 1767-1944
  • Weddings: 1854 to 1941
  • Funerals: 1800 to 1943
  • Communicants: 1871 to 1943.
