Kinel-Cherkassy ( Russian Кине́ль-Черка́ссы ) is a village (selo) in the Samara Oblast ( Russia ) with 17,252 inhabitants (as of October 14, 2010).

geography

The place is located in the Volga region , about 85 kilometers as the crow flies east-northeast of the Samara Oblast Administrative Center and 15 kilometers northeast of the city of Otradny . The Samara tributary Great Kinel (Bolshoi Kinel) flows through Kinel-Cherkassy , into which the Small Kinel (Maly Kinel) flows.

Kinel-Cherkassy is the administrative center of the Kinel-Cherkassy Raion of the same name as well as the rural community of the same name (Selskoje posselenije) , to which, in addition to Kinel-Cherkassy, ​​the eight villages and settlements of Tousakowo, Altuchowo, Vinno-Bannowo, Volnaja Solyanka, Svobodnyje Nai-Leben, Prosweschcheniye and Prokopenki belong.

history

The establishment of the place is related to the connection of the area around Orenburg to the Russian Empire and its protection against the repeatedly rising Bashkirs and nomads from the steppe areas to the south in the 18th century. In 1739 Tsarina Anna Ivanovna issued an ukase on the settlement of peasants from the Cherkassy area in today's Ukraine in order to strengthen the border line of the empire beyond Orenburg. By 1742, 618 families had arrived at the Orenburg fortress and were distributed among already existing fortified settlements. Many of the settled farmers did not understand the difficult conditions and living conditions, which differed greatly from their area of ​​origin, and expressed their wish to be able to return. 46 families were finally allowed to settle in the hinterland. They founded Kinel-Cherkassy on the left bank of the river in 1744 and named it after the river and its place of origin.

In the following years, more farmers from the governorates of Kiev and Kharkov came to the area, as well as dispersed participants in the Pugachev uprising and later farmers from other parts, mainly from southern central Russia. In addition to Russians and Ukrainians , the settlers also included members of other ethnic groups, such as the Tatars , Mordvins and Chuvashes .

In the 1890s, the railway line from Samara via Ufa and Zlatoust to Chelyabinsk , which a little later became part of the Trans-Siberian Railway , passed the village, which had a positive effect on economic development.

In 1928 Kinel-Cherkassy became the administrative center of a newly established Rajon.
