geography

The settlement is located in the Far East of Russia on the left bank of an arm of the important Amur tributary Amgun , about 450 kilometers (as the crow flies) north-northeast of the regional capital, Khabarovsk .

Imeni Poliny Ossipenko is the administrative center of the imeni Poliny Ossipenko raion of the same name .

history

During the expansion of the Russian Empire in the Amur region in the 1850s, Governor General Nikolai Muravjow ordered in January 1857 the organization of an "Amur expedition" to explore the region. In this context, the geologist Nikolai Anossow (1835–1890) soon found gold deposits in the area of ​​the lower Amgun and its tributaries.

The Blagoveschensk merchant Charlampi Tetyukov began more detailed exploration and mining of these deposits in 1869. In 1870 he founded his main base, which he called Kerbinskaja residenzija ("Kerbi residence", after the river Kerbi, which flows a few kilometers north into the Nimelen; this in turn flows a little below the place to the Amgun) in place of the current place . In 1884 the name of the village that had been created in the meantime was shortened to Kerbi .

In 1926 the sparsely populated Rajon of the same name was created (today 0.2 inhabitants / km²) and Kerbi became its administrative center.

In 1939 the village and Rajon were given their current names (literally (Dorf / Rajon) called Polina Ossipenko ) after the pilot Polina Ossipenko , who had previously died in a plane crash. In 1938, together with Valentina Grisodubowa and Marina Raskowa , she set a women's world record with the ANT-37bis "Rodina" over a straight flight distance of over 5900 kilometers, which ended from Moscow in the Kerbi area.
