history

The first officially mentioned localities in the area of ​​today's city emerged in the second half of the 17th century. An economic boom came with the establishment of a cloth weaving mill in the village of Gurjewka in 1826. In 1848 a paper mill was built in the village of Kurojedowo , later Troizko-Kurojedowo . By the end of the 19th century, more factories were built, so that the area became the most economically developed area of ​​the otherwise agricultural Simbirsk governorate .

On September 7, 1928, Troitsko-Kurojedowo became the urban-type settlement named after the river Barysch ; Gurjewka also received this status. During the Second World War , more textile factories were relocated to Barysch from Vitebsk and Gomel in the western part of the Soviet Union .

On December 22nd, 1954, Barysch received city rights when the two settlements were merged.
