The place previously called Pobethen is an old church village and was also an estate for a long time. The area was settled by the Balts as early as the Bronze Age . There was probably a Prussian fortification on the formerly so-called Hannchenberg . The place was first mentioned in 1258. In 1260, during the Prussian uprising, this was the main focus of the Samland resistance, which was broken in the battle of Pobethen with massive resistance from the Livonian Order of the Swords. Long after that the place remained a source of unrest, and the Prussian language and religion stayed here for a particularly long time.
After Pillau (now Russian: Baltijsk) and Fischhausen (Primorsk), Pobethen developed into what was once the most important place in Samland. There was a Kruger here as early as 1479, which was even allowed to make brandy into the 17th century.
On June 13, 1874, Pobethen became the seat and eponymous place of a newly established administrative district that existed until 1945 and belonged to the Fischhausen district - Samland district from 1939 to 1945 - in the Königsberg district of the Prussian province of East Prussia .
In 1910 there were 857 inhabitants in the village of Pobethen and 190 in the Pobethen manor. Both districts united on September 30, 1928 to form the new rural community of Pobethen, at the same time the rural community of Diewens (no longer existing today) was incorporated. In 1933 there were 1119 inhabitants here and in 1939 there were already 1359 inhabitants.
After the end of the Second World War , northern East Prussia and with it Pobethen were placed under Soviet administration. Pobethen was given the Russian name Romanowo in 1947 . At the same time the place became the seat of a village soviet in Primorsk Raion . From 2005 to 2015 Romanowo belonged to the rural municipality of Kovrovskoje selskoje posselenije and since then to the city district of Zelenogradsk.
District of Pobethen (1874–1945)
The newly established district of Pobethen was formed by seven rural communities (LG) and one manor district (GB) in 1874. In 1910, five rural communities and another manor district were reclassified from the Strobjehnen district (now in Russian: Kulikowo), which was in the process of being dissolved, to the Pobethen district:

Romanowski selski Sowet / okrug 1947–2005
The village soviet Romanowski selski sovet (ru. Романовский сельский Совет) was established in June 1947 in Primorsk Raion . After the collapse of the Soviet Union , the administrative unit existed as the village district Romanowski selski okrug (ru. Романовский сельский округ). In 2005 the remaining places in the village district were incorporated into the newly formed rural community Kowrowskoje selskoje posselenije .

House Pobethen
In 1262 the Prussian Landmeister Helmerich von Rechenberg had the "House Pobethen" built on a headland in the mill pond north-west of Pobethen. It was destroyed by a Lithuanian invasion in 1283 and 1289, but was soon rebuilt - this time made of stone. This castle was destroyed in the peasant uprising under Hans Gericke in 1525 and was not rebuilt.
In 1912 the community began to extract road construction material from individual parts of the ruins. The state curator protested and managed to save at least the already uncovered foundations of the eastern main house.

Church building
The Pobethener Church is a building from the 14th century, a plastered field stone building with a stream stone frame. It survived the Second World War unscathed, but was then structurally changed so that today only the ruins of the tower, the choir and other outer walls are preserved. The building cannot currently be used for church purposes.
Parish
Pobethen was already a church village in the pre-Reformation period. The Reformation gained a foothold here very early, as a Lutheran cleric was already serving here in 1520. Until 1945 Pobethen with its 36 parish places belonged to the parish of Fischhausen (today Russian: Primorsk) within the church province of East Prussia of the Church of the Old Prussian Union . Today Romanowo is located in the catchment area of the Evangelical Lutheran congregation in Zelenogradsk (Cranz) , a branch congregation of the Resurrection Church in Kaliningrad (Königsberg) within the Kaliningrad provost of the Evangelical Lutheran Church of European Russia .
school
There was already a school in Pobethen at the time of the Reformation . In connection with the reorganization of rural schools, King Friedrich Wilhelm I built a school at the beginning of the 18th century. Around 1900 the Pobethener School had six classes.
