Kady ( Russian Кады́й ) is an urban-type settlement and former city in the Kostroma Oblast in Russia with 3597 inhabitants (as of October 14, 2010).
geography
The place is located about 130 km as the crow flies east of the Kostroma Oblast Administrative Center on the Votgat River , about 5 km above its confluence from the right into the Njomda tributary of the Volga .
Kady is the administrative center of the Kadyjski Rajons as well as the seat and only locality of the municipality (gorodskoje posselenije) Possjolok Kady.
history
The place was founded in 1546 by order of Ivan IV as a fortress to protect the border between the Grand Duchy of Moscow and the Kazan Khanate . Only a few years later, with the submission of the Khanate by the now proclaimed Tsarist Russia in 1552, the fortress lost its military importance. Due to its favorable location at the intersection of the streets Kostroma - Makarjew and Jurjewez - Galitsch , Kady was able to develop economically.
In 1778 it received city rights as the administrative seat of a Ujesd of the Kostroma Governorate , but lost its administrative function in 1797 with the dissolution of the Ujesd and its connection to the Ujesd Makarjew.
In the 1920s, Kady was downgraded to a village, but on January 25, 1935 again the administrative seat of a newly created Rajons named after him. In 1971 it received urban-type settlement status.
