history
In the hamlet (chutor) Maximowski , first mentioned in 1859 , the railway line ( Moscow -) Kozlov - Voronezh - Rostov-on-Don was passed by in 1863 and the Maximovka station opened there. In 1902 the station was renamed Kamenolomni , a now outdated Russian term for quarries (in the plural), some of which were operated in the area.
The hamlet, later also called Maximo-Novogruschewski together with the newly created neighboring village, received the status of an urban-type settlement in 1933 and its current name after the train station. Since 1938 the settlement has been the administrative seat of a Rajon.
