Geographical location

Telmanowo is on the left bank of the Alley and four kilometers southeast of Znamensk (Wehlau) . From the Russian trunk road R 514 (former German Reichsstrasse 142 ) a dead end road leads east into the village. The next train station is Snamensk on the Kaliningrad – Nesterow railway line (Königsberg – Stallupönen / Ebenrode) , part of the former Prussian Eastern Railway , for onward travel to Lithuania and the Russian heartland.

history

The village, called Richau until 1946 , was founded in 1371. In 1874 the rural community of Richau came to the newly established district of Rockelkeim (Russian: Uljanowka, no longer existent). It belonged to 1945 the county Wehlau in the administrative district of Konigsberg the Prussian province of East Prussia .

The area of ​​Richau and also Klein Nuhr (Russian: Suchodolje) and Groß Nuhr (Sawetnoje, no longer existent) on the opposite bank of the Alley had considerable deposits of clay . That is why numerous brickworks settled along the Alley , of which the "Allemannia" in Richau was one of the largest in East Prussia .

On April 18, 1907, the Vorwerk Richau, which belonged to the neighboring manor district Georgenberg (no longer exists), formed an independent manor district Richau, which existed alongside the rural community of Richau. In 1910 the manor counted 81, the rural community 196 inhabitants. On September 30, 1928, both places merged to form the new rural community of Richau. The population was 311 in 1933 and 285 in 1939.

As a result of the war, Richau came to the Soviet Union with northern East Prussia in 1945 and was given the Russian name “Telmanowo” in 1946, after the German communist Ernst Thälmann (1886–1944; Russian spelling Тельман , Telman ). A year later, the village "moved" from the district of Wehlau to the newly created Rajon Gwardeisk (district of Tapiau ) and was incorporated into the Bolschepoljanski selski soviet (Dorfsovjet Bolschaja Polyana (Paterswalde) ). Today Telmanowo with its currently 20 inhabitants (as of October 14, 2010) is a "settlement" ( Russian possjolok ) declared as a "settlement" ( Russian possjolok ) within the Znamenskoje selskoje posselenije (rural community Znamensk (Wehlau) ) due to a structural and administrative reform .

church

Richau, inhabited by a predominantly Protestant population, belonged to the parish of the church in Paterswalde until 1945 (today in Russian: Bolschaja Poljana ). It belonged to the church district Wehlau in the church province of East Prussia of the church of the Old Prussian Union . This reference to Bolshaya Polyana still exists today, where in the 1990s a new Evangelical Lutheran congregation was formed from Germans from Russia . It is a subsidiary of the Church of the Resurrection in Kaliningrad (Königsberg) within the Kaliningrad provost of the Evangelical Lutheran Church of European Russia .
