history

The place goes back to a village founded in 1745 under the name Kandry-Aminewo , today's Staryje Kandry ("Old Kandry"). The insignificant village experienced an initial boom with the construction of the railway in 1910, when the Simbirsk (today Ulyanovsk) - Tschischmy (- Ufa) line passed there and the Kandry station was built. The entire line went into operation in 1916. By the early 1930s, the population of the station settlement grew to almost 2,000, and on March 20, 1937, it became the administrative seat of the newly created Kandrinski rajon.

After the discovery of oil in the area in the late 1940s, Kandry was granted urban-type settlement status on February 21, 1952 . On July 4, 1956, the Kandrinski rajon was dissolved and reintegrated into the Tuimasinski rajon. Kandry has been a village again since the administrative reform in 2004.
