history

The village of Russkije Kilemary ("Russian Kilemary") was founded in 1850 by Russian resettlers from the Ujesd Jaransk of the Viatka Governorate , about 4 km from the existing Mari- inhabited village of Mari-Kilemary. The place has had its current name since 1904.

On August 26, 1939, he became the administrative seat of a Rajon named after him, which was created by outsourcing from the Gornomarijski rajon ("Mountain Mari Rajon") with its seat in Kosmodemjansk , which had existed since 1930 . In 1984 Kilemary received urban-type settlement status.

traffic

Kilemary is located on the regional road 88K-006, which branches off about 30 km southeast of the 88K-002 Yoshkar-Ola - Kosmodemyansk and continues to the border of the Nizhny Novgorod Oblast in the direction of Sharanga . To the northeast, the 88N-04001 branches off to the border of Kirov Oblast , and further to Santschursk, about 30 km away .

The nearest railway stations are located in the Republic capital Yoshkar-Ola or little further west in Krasnooktjabrski (Station Nolka ) at the track Selenodolsk  - Yoshkar Ola - Yaransk . Kilemary gave its name to a forest railway opening up the western part of the republic , for which the name Kilemary Railway (Kilemarskaya schelesnaja doroga) became naturalized from the 1960s (previously Dubovskaya Railway, after the former settlement of Dubowski on the Volga ). The broad-gauge network, which was built from 1927 onwards, with its maximum extension of up to around 200 km, was unusual for such a railway and was isolated from the railway network of the Soviet Union until 1979, when a connection to Nolka went into operation . The last sections were closed in 2002. The routes did not touch the Kilemary settlement directly - the nearest train station, Zinglok, was about 15 km south - but led through the Rajon with Kilemary as the largest town in the area.
