history
The river Barancha, on which the settlement is located today, became famous because it was rafted by the Cossack Yermak Timofejewitsch and his troops in May 1580 after they had crossed the Urals for the first time. With this began the Russian conquest of Siberia .
In 1747 a settlement was built in connection with the construction of an ironworks . The plant and settlement were named after the river Baranchinsky Zavod ("Barancha Plant"). For many years the factory produced grenades for the Imperial Russian Army . In the meantime, the plant and location were also called Nizhne-Barantschinski ("Unter-Barantschinski"), since a Verkhne-Barantschinski Sawod ("Upper Barantscha Plant") was built about 10 km upstream (northwest) ; the small village of Verkhnyaya Barancha is located there today.
During the First World War in 1916 the electromechanical plant “Volta” was evacuated from Reval to Barantschinski because of a possible threat from the German-Russian front . After the war it was combined with the old ironworks. In 1928 the place received the status of an urban-type settlement , which was subordinated to the city of Kushwa.
In 2004 the settlement lost its urban status as part of the administrative reform.
