The village, founded in 1394 and called Stapornen until 1946 , was incorporated into the newly established district of Sankt Lorenz in 1874. It belonged to the district of Fischhausen - 1939 to 1945 to the district of Samland - in the administrative district of Königsberg in the Prussian province of East Prussia .

On September 30, 1928, Staporenen gave up its independence and merged with the neighboring towns of Groß Ladtkeim (Russian: Jasnowka), Kotzlauken (Tumanowka), Siegesdicken, Wernershof and Adlig Delgienen (all five towns no longer exist) to form the new rural community Groß Ladtkeim , which was assigned to the district of Kumehnen (now Russian: Kumatschowo).
In 1945 Stapornen came to the Soviet Union as a result of the war with all of northern East Prussia . The place was given the Russian name Wetkino in 1947 and was assigned to the village soviet Romanovsky selski soviet in Primorsk Raion at the same time .
