history

Askis became a Kirchdorf in 1771 in place of an already existing settlement at the mouth of the Askis River. Since 1924 it has been the center of a rajon.

In connection with the construction of the Novokuznetsk  - Abakan section of the South Siberian Railway and the construction of a larger station at the junction of the branch line to Abasa , the urban-type settlement of Askis was built in the 1950s about 7 km to the west, the population of which already exceeded that of the village in 1959 . At the beginning of the 1970s, however, the village overtook the settlement again.
