history
The Year of 1946 to Rantau mentioned village on the Samland Baltic coast is the place for 1297. Between 1874 and 1910 belonged to the district of Strobjehnen (now Russian: Kulikovo) in the district Fischhausen in the administrative district of Konigsberg the Prussian province of East Prussia . In 1910 Rantau came to the district of Neukuhren (Pionerski), which joined the district of Samland in 1939 .
On October 17, 1928, the neighboring town of Alknicken to the east was incorporated into Rantau. The village of Alknicken, which was founded in 1540 at the latest, consisted of several large and small farms. Like Rantau, Alknicken also belonged to the Strobjehnen district from 1874 to 1910 and then to the Neukuhren district until 1945.
As a result of the Second World War , Rantau came to the Soviet Union with all of northern East Prussia and in 1947 was again given the Russian name "Saostrowje" without any buckling, while Alknicken was given the Russian name "Pribreschnoje" at the same time. At the same time, both places were assigned to the village soviet Romanowski selski Sowet in Primorsk Raion . Before 1988 Pribreschnoye was (again) connected to Saostrowje. From 2005 to 2015, Saostrowje belonged to the rural municipality of Kovrovskoje selskoje posselenije and since then to the city district of Zelenogradsk.
