Geographical location

Zarechye is located 32 kilometers east of the district town of Polessk (Labiau) on the regional road 27A-145 (ex A190 ), shortly before it joins the federal road A216 (also European road 77 ). There is a rail connection via the Bolshakowo -Nowoje station (Groß Skaisgirren / Kreuzingen) on the Kaliningrad – Sowetsk (Königsberg – Tilsit) railway line .

history

The village formerly called Schwirgslauken once consisted of just a few larger farms. In 1874 it was incorporated into the then newly established district of Obscherninken (1938 to 1945: Dachsfelde, the place no longer exists today), which belonged to the Labiau district in the Königsberg administrative district of the Prussian province of East Prussia . In 1910, 88 inhabitants were registered in Schwirgslauken. On April 1, 1938, the communities Schwirgslauken and Lauschen (until 1936 Lauszen) were merged to form the new Herzfelde community. The population of the enlarged community was 135 in 1939.

Since June 3, 1938 the community was officially called Herzfelde (Ostpr.). The district of Lauschen was renamed Brachhöfen in 1938 . After being renamed on August 25, 1938, Herzfelde belonged to the Korehlen district .

As a result of the war, the place came to the Soviet Union with northern East Prussia in 1945 . In 1947 he was given the Russian name Saretschje (as Schwirgslauken) and at the same time was assigned to the village Soviet Zalessovsky selski Sowet in the Bolshakovo district . Zarechye has been part of Polessk Raion since 1965 . From 2008 to 2016 the place belonged to the rural community Zalessovskoye selskoje posselenije and since then to the urban district of Polessk.

church

In Schwirgslauken resp. Herzfelde was - like almost everywhere in East Prussia - the population almost without exception of Protestant faith. Until 1945 the village was part of the parish of the Popelken Church (1938 to 1946: Markthausen, today in Russian: Wyssokoje), which belonged to the Church of Labiau in the church province of East Prussia of the Church of the Old Prussian Union . Today Saretschje lies in the catchment area of the newly established Evangelical Lutheran congregation in Bolshakowo . It is a subsidiary of the Salzburg Church in Gussew (Gumbinnen) within the Kaliningrad provost of the Evangelical Lutheran Church of European Russia .
