Schtschukino ( Russian Щукино , German Leysuhnen , 1938–45 Leisuhnen and Schettnienen ) is the common name of two independent places before 1945, which were located in the Russian Oblast Kaliningrad ( Koenigsberg area ) in the area of today's urban district Mamonowo ( Heiligenbeil ) and the Rajons Bagrationowsk ( District Preussisch Eylau ).
Geographical location
The two places Schtschukino are located in the extreme southwest of the Kaliningrad Oblast on the Frischer Haff (= Leysuhnen) and southeast of it in the area of the Russian-Polish border (= Schettnienen). While no roads lead to the Frischen Haff from the Russian trunk road A 194 (former German Reichsstrasse 1 ), but land routes do lead, the border area is now a restricted area - with the result that the district located here no longer exists. The rail link for the area is via the Mamonowo ( Heiligenbeil ) train station, six or four kilometers away, on the railway line from Malbork ( Marienburg ) in Poland to Kaliningrad ( Königsberg (Prussia) ) in Russia .
Place name
The place name Shchukino is common in Russia. It is related to the family name Shchukin and the word shchuka for pike .
Shchukino (Leysuhnen)
history
The municipality of Leysuhnen in the district of Heiligenbeil was established on June 11, 1874 with the rural communities of Carben (from 1931 Karben , Russian: Prigorkino), Polish Bahnau (from 1920 German Bahnau , Russian: Baltijskoje), Prussian Bahnau (Selenodolskoje) and the manor districts Büsterwalde, Büsterwalde (forest), carbene, Gerlach village (today Polish: Zgoda), Ruhnenberg (Polish: Runka) Schettnienen and guard shack to district merged carbene.
On July 29, 1879, Leysuhnen received "reinforcement": the communities of Preußisch Bahnau (Selenodolskoje) and Wermten are incorporated. On September 30, 1928, the Büsterwalde estate and on November 15, 1928 the Födersdorf (Forst) estate were added. On June 3, 1938, the Leysuhnen community was officially renamed Leisuhnen. Until 1945 it belonged with German Bahnau, Karben and Prussian Bahnau to become somewhat restructured District Karben (Prigorkino) in the district Heiligenbeil in the administrative district of Konigsberg the Prussian province of East Prussia .
While Leysuhnen still had 244 inhabitants in 1910, there were 288 in 1933 and 275 in 1939.
After the Second World War , Leisuhnen became Russian and was called Schchukino since 1947. The place no longer existed by the mid-1980s at the latest.

history
The manor village " Schudenyn " was first mentioned in 1466. His estate was formerly owned by the von der Trenck and von Rabe families . In 1730 the fiefdom fell to the king, but Jacob von Laxdehnen , who had come into the possession of von Rabe as a pledge in 1703 , was able to purchase the estate in 1736/38 and built the manor house that still existed after 1945 .
On September 17, 1778, Alexander Georg von Bronsart (1734–1790) acquired Schettnienen, then Alexander von Bronsart (1786–1863) acquired it . He put the property on a sound economic basis and left it to his stepson Wilhelm von Lampinet called von Bonsart (1819–1886).
The Prussian general and later Minister of War Paul Bronsart von Schellendorff (1832-1891) then became the owner of Schettnienen. His son Wilhelm Bronsart von Schellendorff (1861–1914) died in World War I and his heir Albrecht (1902–1995) was the last man on Schettnienen. The mansion of the last 682 hectare estate survived the chaos of war and served as accommodation for border troops of the USSR until 1985 . Then it was razed to the ground.
Schettnienen formed on June 11, 1874 together with the rural communities Carben (from 1931 Karben , Russian: Prigorkino), Leysuhnen (1938–1945 Leisuhnen ), Polish Bahnau (from 1920 German Bahnau , Russian: Baltijskoje) and Prussian Bahnau (Selenodolskoje) as well as the Manor districts of Büsterwalde, Büsterwalde (Forst), Carben, Gerlachsdorf (now Polish: Zgoda), Ruhnenberg (Runka) and Wachtbude make up the Carben district.
On April 1, 1938, the rural community Schettnienen lost its independence and was incorporated into the community Alt Passarge (today Polish: Stara Pasłęka) in the district of Rossen (Polish: Rusy). Furthermore, the place belonged to the district of Heiligenbeil in the administrative district of Königsberg in the Prussian province of East Prussia .
In 1945 Schettnienen came to the Soviet Union and since 1946 it has belonged to Shchukino as a district. Its location in the restricted area of the Russian-Polish state border sealed the end of the almost 500-year-old village, which presumably ceased to exist as a locality before the 1970s. Instead of the former village, located between the first barriers and the actual state border, there are now facilities of the Russian border troops .
church
With its majority Protestant population Schettnienen belonged until 1945 to the parish Heiligenbeil (Mamonowo) in the same church district within the ecclesiastical province of East Prussia the Prussian Union of churches . Schettnienen was also looked after by the two clergymen Paul Bernecker and Hans Krumm as the last German pastor.
