history
The former Szameitkehmen was on March 11, 1874 one of the communities that formed the newly established Kraupischkehmen district (1938–1945 Erdmannsruh , Russian: Salivnoje). He belonged to the district of Insterburg in the administrative district of Gumbinnen in the Prussian province of East Prussia . After the village was set to the new spelling of the name “Schameitkehmen” in 1936, it received the Germanized name “Walkenau” on June 3, 1938 - with official confirmation from July 16, 1938 .
After church life came to a standstill in the time of the Soviet Union due to state bans, in the 1990s new Protestant congregations were formed in the Kaliningrad Oblast, including in Chernyakhovsk, which again became the parish seat for a large church region within the Kaliningrad Provosty of Evangelicals - Lutheran Church of European Russia (ELKER) is.
