The settlement is located on the western flank of the Middle Urals , almost 100 kilometers (as the crow flies) west of the Oblast capital Yekaterinburg on the Bissert of the same name , a right tributary of the Ufa . The Bissert is dammed into a small dam (Bissertski prud) .

Bissert belongs to Rajon Nizhniye Sergi ; the administrative center of Nizhny Sergi is 25 kilometers to the southeast.

history

The history of the place begins between 1735 and 1736, when a "fortress" ( Ostrog ) was built on behalf of the administrator of the Ural mines Vasily Tatishchev to defend the area against Bashkir incursions .

In 1761 the entrepreneur Grigori Demidow had an iron works built and for this purpose dammed the river into a "pond". The plant and location was named Bissertski sawod after the name of the river . The origin of the name is unclear. After Grigori Demidow's death in the same year, the work went to his son Pawel Demidow and remained in the possession of the Demidow family until 1873 .

During the Pugachev uprising , the plant was temporarily in the hands of the rebels in 1774.

Previously belonging to the Ujesd Krasnoufimsk of the Perm Governorate , Bissert was the first administrative center of a raion of the same name in 1923 ; In 1932, however, this was attached to the Nizhniy Sergi Rajon.

Until 1925, iron was smelted based on local ore deposits in the plant. During the Second World War , the plant produced artillery shells . In 1942 the place received the status of an urban-type settlement under its current name. In 1944 a Bissert Rajon was again expelled, but in 1959 it was again part of the Nizhniy Sergi Rajon.

After the war, the factory was converted to the production of agricultural equipment as well as armaments and everyday goods.
