history
The founding of the village once called Kaymen dates back to the beginning of the 13th century. At that time, the Prussian landscape of Caym lay between the Curonian Lagoon (Russian: Kurschski Saliw) and the valley of the Pregel River (Pregolja) , of which the Kaymen burial ground still provides eloquent information. Even then, Kaymen was the center of a heavily populated landscape.
The Prussian Wallburg Caym was taken over and expanded by the Teutonic Order , who built a church here (today as a ruin west of the town of Trostniki (Bothenen) ) and later used as a moated castle , under Duke Albrecht also as a hunting lodge . The peasant uprising began here in 1525, caused by the rigid behavior of the administrator Andreas Rippe , descendant of a mercenary leader.
In 1668 the castle was prepared as the seat of a domain , and in 1783 the castle was expanded by master builder Blasius Berwart .
On April 9, 1874, the then Caymen became an official village and thus gave its name to the newly established administrative district , which initially included seven rural communities or manor districts. He belonged to the district of Labiau in the administrative district of Königsberg in the Prussian province of East Prussia . In 1910, the Kaymen rural community had 207 residents and the Kaymen manor estate had 260 residents.
On September 30, 1928, the manor district Kaymen (without the Vorwerk Legehnen , Russian today Barsukowka) was incorporated into the rural community of Kaymen. The population of the united municipality was 303 in 1933 and 363 in 1939.
As a result of the Second World War , the village, called Kaimen since 1938, came to the Soviet Union in northern East Prussia . In 1947 the place received the Russian name Saretschje and was assigned at the same time to the village soviet Dobrinski selski Sowet in Gurjewsk Rajon . From 2008 to 2013 Zarechye belonged to the rural municipality Dobrinskoje selskoje posselenije and since then to the urban district of Guryevsk.

Kaymen Castle
The medieval fortress of Kaymen was changed in the order during the time of the order in such a way that - by damming the stream flowing past and digging a ditch - they created an island on which a log house was built for additional security. In the 14th century it was made of stone and changed to a moated castle . Then used as a hunting lodge , the castle became the seat of the Kaymen domain in 1668 , although the entire complex as a former moated castle was never changed. In 1827 the structure of the castle was still in good condition. It was only after 1945 that the buildings steadily fell into disrepair or were defaced by extensions. Today, only partially existing outer walls, heavily covered by vegetation, can be seen.

Church building
The Kaymen Church, which dates back to the last third of the 14th century, was built to the northwest of what was then Kaymen 450 meters west of Bothenen (today Russian: Trostniki), where the “Kaymen Church” with the church existed until 1945. It is a field stone and brick building with a retracted choir. The tower was not completed until 1852. Today only ruins remain of the church, such as the walls of the nave and also the tower without a point.
Parish
The parish of Kaymen already existed in the pre-Reformation period , in which the Reformation took hold as early as 1525 . Formerly part of the Schaaken inspection (Russian: Schemtschuschnoje), Kaymen was part of the Labiau (Polessk) church district within the Church of the Old Prussian Union in the church province of East Prussia until 1945 . Today, Zaretschje is in the catchment area of the Evangelical Lutheran congregation in Polessk (Labiau) , a subsidiary of the Resurrection Church in Kaliningrad (Königsberg) in the Kaliningrad provost of the Evangelical Lutheran Church of European Russia (ELCER).
Parish locations (until 1945)
In addition to Kaymen itself, the parish of Kaymen also included more than forty localities:
