Leegen was one of eleven rural communities or manor districts that formed the administrative district Kassuben ( Cassuben , today Russian: Iljinskoje) on June 24, 1874 . Leegen belonged to this administrative district in the Stallupönen district (1939–1945 Ebenrode district ) in the Gumbinnen (Gussew) administrative district in the Prussian province of East Prussia .

As a result of the Second World War , the village came under Soviet administration. In 1947 the place was given the name Snamenka , which is often used in Russia, and at the same time was assigned to the village soviet Repinski selski Sowet (Egglenischken / Tannenmühl) in the Nesterow district . 1954 came the place in the Kalininski selski Sowet . From 2008 to 2018, Snamenka belonged to the rural municipality of Tschistoprudnenskoje selskoe posselenije and since then to the urban district of Nesterow.
