Pushkino ( Russian Пушкино , German  Wessel courts, county Heiligenbeil ) was a place in the Russian Kaliningrad Oblast (region Königsberg (Prussia) ) and was in the range of the current Pogranitschnoje selskoje posselenije (Town Pogranichny (Hermsdorf) ) in Bagrationovsky District (Kreis Preußisch Eylau ) .

Geographical location

Pushkino was 18 kilometers away from Mamonowo on the eastern side of today's Russian trunk road R 516 not far from the exit to Laduschkin and Kornewo . A railway connection existed via Laduschkin on the railway line from Kaliningrad via Mamonowo to today's Poland (formerly the Prussian Eastern Railway ).

history

Gutsdorf, then known as Wesselshöfen , became the seat and eponymous place of the newly established Wesselshöfen district on June 11, 1874 , which existed until 1945. He was in the district of Heiligenbeil in the administrative district of Königsberg in the Prussian province of East Prussia . On September 19, 1887, the neighboring village of Kelmkeim (no longer existent) was incorporated into Wesselshöfen, and in 1910 the place had 187 inhabitants.

On September 30, 1928, Wesselshöfen expanded again when the former manor district merged with the manor districts Düsterwalde and Sperwienen (both no longer exist) to form the new rural community of Wesselshöfen. In 1933 there were 373 and in 1939 408 inhabitants.

As a result of the Second World War , Wesselshöfen came to the Soviet Union with northern East Prussia and in 1950 received the name " Pushkino ", which is very common in today's Russia . The place was still inhabited for a short time until it was finally abandoned. Most recently it was mentioned as a village within the Pogranitschni soviet (Dorfsovjet Pogranitschny). Its naming ended with the formation of the Pogranitschnoje selskoje posselenije (rural municipality Pogranitschny) in 2009 due to a structural and administrative reform.

Wesselshöfen district (1874–1945)

On June 11, 1874, the new Wesselshöfen district was created. Until 1945 it belonged to the district of Heiligenbeil in the administrative district of Königsberg in the Prussian province of East Prussia . The administrative district was assigned to rural communities and manor districts :
