Sokolniki ( Russian Сокольники , German  Langendorf, Wehlau district , Lithuanian Langendorfas ) is a place in the Russian Oblast Kaliningrad ( Koenigsberg region (Prussia) ) and belongs to the Slavinskoje selskoje posselenije (rural community Slavinsk (Goldbach) ) in Gwardeisk district ( Tapiauisk district ).

Geographical location

Sokolniki is located on the north bank of the Pregel (Russian: Pregolja), eleven kilometers west of the city of Gwardeisk (Tapiau) . A side road runs through the village and branches off the Russian trunk road A 229 (former German Reichsstrasse 1 , now also European roads E 28 and E 77 ) in a southerly direction and leads to Losowoje (Podollen) . The next train station is Gwardeisk on the Kaliningrad – Nesterow railway line (Königsberg – Stallupönen / Ebenrode) , a section of the former Prussian Eastern Railway .

history

The former manor village, known as Langendorf until 1946, with a few farmsteads was incorporated into the newly established district of Kremitten (today Russian: Losowoje) in 1874. It existed until 1945 and was part of the circle Wehlau in the administrative district of Konigsberg the Prussian province of East Prussia . In 1910 233 residents were registered in Adlig Langendorf and 30 residents in Königlich Langendorf . The distinction was abolished on November 1, 1928, when both places merged to form the new rural community of Langendorf. A total of 399 people lived here in 1933 and 321 in 1939. A few weeks earlier, the southern part of the municipality of Podollen (today in Russian: Losowoje) with the village of Kremitten (also in Russian: Losowoje) and the Kremitten church had been incorporated.

The von Perbandt family is closely connected to Langendorf . It had its seat here from the time of the order until 1945. Its ancestor was the Prussian noble Sklodo de Quedenau ( Quednau ), who owned land from Samland to Kremitten. Georg von Perbandt had a new manor house built in 1865 with farm buildings and a spacious park. Most recently, Johanna von Perbandt, a great-granddaughter of Albrecht Thaer , ran the estate with some of her children, to which Nahmgeist (now in Polish: Śliwice) in the Prussian Eylau district belonged.

As a result of the Second World War , Langendorf came to the Soviet Union with northern East Prussia in 1945 and was given the Russian name "Sokolniki" in 1946. In 1947 the place "moved" from the Wehlau district to the newly created Gwardeisk district ( Tapiau district ) and to the Borski selski soviet (Borskoje village soviet (Schiewenau) ). Today Sokolniki with its currently 264 inhabitants (as of October 14, 2010) is a “settlement” (Russian: possjolok) declared place within the Slawinskoje selskoje posselenije (rural community Slavinsk (Goldbach) ).

church

Langendorf, with its mostly Protestant inhabitants, was parish until 1945 in the parish of the Kremitten church, which had been in the municipality of Langendorf since 1928. The parish belonged to the church district Wehlau in the church province of East Prussia of the Church of the Old Prussian Union . Today Sokolniki is located in the catchment area of ​​the newly established Evangelical Lutheran congregation in Gwardeisk (Tapiau) , a branch congregation of the Resurrection Church in Kaliningrad (Königsberg) in the Kaliningrad provost of the Evangelical Lutheran Church of European Russia .
