history
The place was established in 1743 as a fortified settlement on the then Troitsk - Orsk border of the Russian Empire . The name was derived from the name of the river that flows into the Urals, from the Turkic word kisil for "red", referring to the color of the rocks on its banks. In the middle of the 19th century the place became a Cossack stanitsa under the name Kisilskaja.
Since November 4, 1926, Kisilskoje has been the administrative seat of a raion named after him.
