history
The place was founded by Kabardians who fled from the Caucasus War of 1817–1864 , who had previously stayed in different parts of the area, but had to change them several times due to the floods of the Laba. In 1868 they were assigned the current location. The current name of the place originally called Ansauri , which in the Adygeic language means a settlement that changes place, refers to the history of the establishment.
During the Soviet period, on December 28, 1934, the Aul became the administrative seat of a newly founded Rajon. During the Second World War , Koschechabl was occupied by the German Wehrmacht from August 1942 to January 1943 .
