Sinjawino ( Russian Синявино , German Groß Hubnicken ) is a place in the Russian Oblast Kaliningrad and belongs to the urban district of Jantarny .
Geographical location
Sinjawino is located on the north-west bank of a lake (osero Sinjawenskoje), which was created by water ingress into an amber open-cast mine , 41 kilometers northwest of the city of Kaliningrad (Königsberg) and three kilometers north of Jantarny (Palmnicken) . The former Klein Hubnicken (today Russian: Klenowoje), which is already on the other side of the border with Zelenogradsk Raion, is only a few kilometers to the southeast . The municipal road 27K-063 runs through Sinjawino from Jantarny to Donskoje (Groß Dirschkeim) . The nearest train stations are in Primorsk (Fischhausen) and Svetlogorsk (Rauschen) .
history
The village and domain , known as Groß Hubnicken until 1946 , was built in 1394.
In 1874 the rural community Groß Hubnicken came to the newly established district of Heiligenkreutz (today Russian: Krasnotorowka) in the district of Fischhausen in the administrative district of Königsberg in the Prussian province of East Prussia . On May 25, 1910, the place was reclassified to the Palmnicken (Jantarny) district , which in 1939 joined the Samland district .
In 1945, Groß Hubnicken was assigned to the Soviet Union together with northern East Prussia as a result of the Second World War . In 1947 the place received the Russian name Sinjawino and was assigned at the same time to the village soviet Jantarski selski Sowet in Primorsk Raion . Later the place was administered by the Yantarny Settlement Soviet. Sinyavino has been part of the Jantarny district since 2004 .

church
The majority Protestant population of Groß Hubnicken was integrated into the parish of the parish church in Palmnicken (today Russian: Jantarny) from 1906 to 1945 and before that it belonged to the Germau church (Russian: Russkoje ). Thus the place was in the parish of Fischhausen (Primorsk) in the church province of East Prussia of the Church of the Old Prussian Union . Today Sinyavino is in the catchment area of the Evangelical Lutheran Church of the Resurrection in Kaliningrad (Königsberg) in the Kaliningrad provost of the Evangelical Lutheran Church of European Russia .
Amber extraction
In 1781 an amber mine was built here , but it closed again in 1806. In the 1960s, consideration was given to expanding the open-cast amber mine, which was no longer profitable near the village, to the area of the village and to relocate the 340 residents at that time. Although the expected income from the amber mining significantly exceeded the calculated costs of the resettlement, the plan was abandoned for socio-political considerations.
At the beginning of 2014, work began on developing the Sinyavino deposit not far from the lake, directly on the beach, for mining, which will only take a year and produce a production volume of almost 100 tons.
Sinyavinskoye lake
Today the Sinyavinskoje Lake (ru. Osero Sinyavenskoje ), which is particularly popular with diving enthusiasts, extends southeast of Sinyavino . It is the remaining hole of the former Walter opencast mine , in which amber was mined from 1913 to 1970 .
