Location in Kaliningrad Oblast

Retschkalowo ( Russian Речкалово , German Abschermeningken , 1938-1946 Fuchstal ) is a small place in the Russian Kaliningrad Oblast (region Königsberg (Prussia) ) and belongs to Krasnojarskoje selskoje posseleninje (Town Krasnojarskoje ( Sodehnen )) in Ozyorsky District (District Darkehmen , 1938 -1946 Angerapp ).

Geographical location

Retschkalowo is nine kilometers north of the district town of Osjorsk ( Darkehmen , 1938-1946 Angerapp ) on the R 508 highway , which connects the two district towns of Osjorsk and Gusew ( Gumbinnen ) with each other. A railway connection no longer exists since the railway line from Insterburg (Russian: Tschernjachowsk) to Lyck (Polish: Ełk) with the Spirockeln railway station (1938–1946 Hohenfried ) was no longer in operation.

history

The former Abschermeningken was one of six rural communities and two manor districts that formed the newly established district of Kieselkehmen on March 18, 1874 (1938–1946 Kieselkeim , since 1946: Konstantinowka). Until 1945 it belonged to the Gumbinnen district in the Gumbinnen district of the Prussian province of East Prussia .

In 1910 there were 60 inhabitants in Abschermeningken. Their number rose to 83 by 1933 and was 63 in 1939.

In the registry office , Abschermeningken, whose name was changed to " Fuchstal " on June 3, 1938 (with official confirmation of July 16, 1938) , was associated with Nemmersdorf (Russian: Mayakowskoje), and the town's school children were in Krauleidszen until 1945 (1936– 1938 Krauleidschen , 1938–1946 Schöppenfelde , since 1946: Kolchosnoje) taught.

As a result of the Second World War , the village came with the entire northeast Prussian region to the Soviet Union and in 1946 was renamed "Retschkalowo". Until 2009 it was incorporated into the Sadovsky Soviet (Dorfsovjet Sadowoje ( Ballethen )), and since then, due to structural and administrative reform in the Kaliningrad Oblast, it has been part of the Krasnoyarskoje selskoje posselenije (rural community Krasnoyarskoje ( Sodehnen )). The place "moved" from the Gumbinnen district to the Osjorsk district ( Darkehmen district , Angerapp 1938–1946 ).

church

In terms of church, the majority of the Protestant population of Abschermeningken / Fuchstal before 1945 was oriented towards the Nemmersdorf church (today in Russian: Mayakowskoje). The parish parish belonged to the church district Gumbinnen in the church province of East Prussia of the Church of the Old Prussian Union . The last German clergyman before 1945 was Pastor Hans Puschke .

Church life was not allowed during the Soviet Union . It was not until the 1990s that numerous Protestant congregations formed in what is now the Russian Oblast of Kaliningrad. Retschkalowo now belongs to the Evangelical Lutheran Church of Salzburg in Gussew within the Kaliningrad provost in the Evangelical Lutheran Church of European Russia (ELKER), whose clergy are those of the Salzburg Church there.
