Uljanowo ( Russian Ульяново ; German Kraupischken ; 1938-1945 Breitenstein ) is a settlement in the Russian Oblast of Kaliningrad . The place belongs to the municipal self-government unit urban district Neman in the Rajon Neman and is located about 25 km south of the Rajonzentrum Neman in the Instertal .
history
When the knights with the Bishop of Samland Jakob von Bludau had agreed, the landscape nadruvians divide, it was on November 20, 1352 as Cropiscen at the Instrad first mentioned, making it one of the oldest settlements in the county. Two years later the first trade route ran through the town.
In 1554 the parish was founded. Augustin Jamund translated the New Testament into Lithuanian the following year.
After half of the population died of the plague in 1708/09, the place remained desolate for decades until King Friedrich Wilhelm I brought thousands of colonists, some of them refugees from Salzburg (expelled Protestants), into the country. In 1723 prince graves of the Aesti (gentes Aestorium) from the period AD 600 to 800 were found on the Breitenstein estate , and in 1725 Johann Jakob Rohde (1690–1727), from 1720 Professor of Logic and Metaphysics in Königsberg, reported on the excavations .
In 1808 the abolition of serfdom and the compulsory flocking had a favorable effect on the development of the place. In 1856/57, when the road network was expanded, the first stone road reached the town. The regular weekly market began in 1859, and the annual cattle and horse market in 1861. In 1866 over 100 houses fell victim to a thunderstorm and fire. In 1902 it was connected to the Insterburg – Ragnit small train line .
In 1938 the place was renamed Platzdorf for a few months , then Breitenstein .
In 1946, 52 Russian families came to the village, which had been abandoned by the German residents. In 1947 the name was changed to Uljanowo. The place became the seat of a village soviet and sovkhos (state property) Luninsky. School director Userzow founded a private East Prussian museum in the town in 1981. From 2008 to 2016 Ulyanovo belonged to the rural municipality of Luninskoje selskoje posselenije and since then to the urban district of Neman.

Church building
In 1555 a church was built in Kraupischken, but in 1740 it was destroyed by flames. In 1772 a new church was built, which received a tower in 1893. Today only the outer walls of the church building remain.
Parish
From Insterburg (today in Russian: Tschernjachowsk) a Lutheran parish was established in Kraupischken in 1554, which also received a pastor's post (from 1706 a second post). Initially belonging to the Insterburg Inspection, it was integrated into the church district Tilsit-Ragnit / Diocese Ragnit within the church province of East Prussia of the Church of the Old Prussian Union until 1945 . In 1856 the parish had 6,974 parishioners who lived in more than 60 villages and towns.
Pastor Augustin Jamund was the first clergyman at the Kraupischken church until 1563 , who translated the New Testament and Martin Luther's catechism into the Lithuanian language and compiled a Lithuanian hymn book .
Today Uljanowo is in the catchment area of the newly established Evangelical Lutheran congregation in Shchegly (Saugwethen , 1938–1946 Saugehnen) in the church region of Gussew (Gumbinnen) within the Kaliningrad provost of the Evangelical Lutheran Church of European Russia .
Orthodox
The Russian Orthodox Church has built its own church building in Ulyanovo . The parish belongs to the diocese of Kaliningrad and Baltiysk .

The regional road 27A-040 (ex A 198 , former German Reichsstrasse 132 ) leads through Uljanowo from Gussew (Gumbinnen) to Sowetsk (Tilsit) . There is a daily bus connection with these cities and with Chernyakhovsk (Insterburg) .
Until 1945 the place was the terminus of the Insterburger Kleinbahnen for the railway line from Insterburg (Tschernjachowsk) and the railway line from Ragnit (Neman).
