Location in Kaliningrad Oblast

Rutscheiki ( Russian Ручейки , German Eszergallen , from 1936 to 1938 Escher Gallen , 1938-1946 Tiefenort ) is a town in the southeast of the Russian Kaliningrad Oblast (region Königsberg (Prussia) ) and belongs to Gawrilowskoje selskoje posselenije (Town Gawrilowo ( Gawaiten , 1938-1946 Herzogsrode )) in Osjorsk district ( Darkehmen district , 1938–1946 Angerapp ).

Geographical location

Rutscheiki is two kilometers northwest of Smirnowo ( Kiauten , 1938-1946 Zellmühle ) and one kilometer west of the side road (former German Reichsstrasse 132 ) that connects the city of Gussew ( Gumbinnen ) via Olchowatka ( Waldkehmen , 1938-1946 Großwaltersdorf ) with the Russian-Polish Border crossing north of the town of Gołdap ( Goldap ) connects. A smaller road leads through Rutscheiki via Karamyshevo ( Pabbeln , 1938–1946 Schardingen ) to Gawrilowo ( Gawaiten , 1938–1946 Herzogsrode ).

The nearest train station Krasnolessje ( (Groß) Rominten , 1938–1946 Hardteck ) is eight kilometers away and is on the railway line that runs from Nesterow ( Stallupönen , 1938–1946 Ebenrode ) via Tschistyje Prudy ( Tollmingkehmen , 1938–1946 Tollmingen ) to Krasnolessje and continued to Goldap (now Polish: Gołdap) before 1945 .

history

The former Eszergallen belonged to 13 rural communities or manor districts , which on March 18, 1874 formed the district of Pabbeln (1938–1946 Schardingen , Russian: Karamyshevo). He belonged to the district of Goldap in the administrative district of Gumbinnen in the Prussian province of East Prussia .

On December 1st, 1910 Eszergallen had 208 inhabitants. In 1933 their number was already 216, in 1939 only 203.

In 1936 the name spelling was corrected in "Eschergallen", but not for a long time: in the course of the National Socialist renaming campaign , the place was given the name "Tiefenort" on July 3, 1938 - with official confirmation from July 16, 1938.

As a result of the Second World War , Tiefenort came to the Soviet Union and was again given a new name in 1946: Rutscheiki. Until 2009, the village was incorporated into the Gawrilowski Soviet (Gawrilowo Village Soviet ( Gawaiten , 1938–1946 Herzogsrode )), then became part of the Gavrilowskoje selskoje posselenije (rural community Gavrilowo) in the Kaliningrad district in what is now the Russian oblast due to a structural and administrative reform .

church

At the beginning of the 20th century, Eszergallen was precisely quoted with the addition “Parish Gawaiten” in order to be confused with the “Eszergallen, parish Dubeningken (1938–1946 Dubeningen )” (now Polish: Kiepojcie ), also in the Goldap district . The parish Gawaiten (1938-1946 Herzogsrode , today in Russian: Gawrilowo) belonged to the parish Goldap (today Polish: Gołdap) in the church province of East Prussia of the Protestant Church of the Old Prussian Union . The last German clergyman was Pastor Wilhelm Schiweck .

During the time of the Soviet Union , church life was forbidden. It was not until the 1990s that new Protestant parishes formed in the Russian Kaliningrad Oblast , the closest to the village of Rutscheiki being the one in Gavrilowo. It is incorporated into the Kaliningrad provost in the Evangelical Lutheran Church of European Russia (ELCER).
