In 1874 the place was incorporated into the then newly established administrative district Legitten (today Russian: Turgenewo), to which it belonged until 1945. The administrative district was in the Labiau district in the Königsberg administrative district of the Prussian province of East Prussia .

As a result of the war, Moritten came to the Soviet Union with northern East Prussia in 1945 . In 1947 the place was given the Russian name Sibirskoje and was assigned at the same time to the village soviet Slawjanski selski Sowet in Polessk Raion . From 2008 to 2016 Sibirskoye belonged to the rural municipality of Turgenevskoye selskoje posselenije and since then to the urban district of Polessk.

church

The church affiliation determined the predominantly Protestant population before 1945 : the village was included in the parish of the church Groß Legitten (today Russian: Turgenewo), which belonged to the parish of Labiau in the church province of East Prussia of the church of the Old Prussian Union . The ecclesiastical relationship between Sibirskoje and the current Church of Turgenevo has been restored since a new Evangelical Lutheran congregation was formed in Turgenevo in the 1990s. It is a subsidiary of the Church of the Resurrection in Kaliningrad (Königsberg) and is part of the Kaliningrad provost of the Evangelical Lutheran Church of European Russia .
