Krasnogwardeiskoje ( Russian Красногварде́йское ) is a village (selo) in the Stavropol region in Russia with 15,992 inhabitants (as of October 14, 2010).
geography
The place is nearly 100km straight line north-northwest of the region administrative center of Stavropol in northern Caucasus foothills on both sides of the left Manytsch -Nebenflusses Yegorlyk River .
Krasnogvardeyskoye is the administrative center of the Rajons Krasnogwardeiski and seat and only town in the rural community (selskoje posselenije) Selo Krasnogvardeyskoye.
history
The place was founded in 1803 as Medweschje . Since 1872 the village was the administrative seat of a Ujesd of the Stavropol governorate created in 1847 . With the abolition of the governorates in the 1920s, the village remained the administrative center of a Rajon .
On May 19, 1935, the name was changed to Evdokimowskoje, in honor of the regional First Secretary of the WKP (B) Yefim Evdokimow. However, during the Stalin Purges , he fell out of favor in 1938 (and was shot in 1940). The village was therefore named Molotovskoye on March 17, 1939, after the chairman of the Council of People's Commissars , quasi head of government, and later Foreign Minister of the Soviet Union Vyacheslav Molotov , and the Rajon the name Molotovsky. As part of the de-Stalinization , the renaming took place on July 13, 1957, when the village and Rajon were given their current names, derived from Krasnaya Gwardija for Red Guard .

traffic
On the southern edge of Krasnogwardeiskoje runs the regional road 07K-041, part of the former R269, which connects Bataisk not far from Rostov-on-Don with Stavropol. The place is also the end point of the regional road 07K-036 from Stavropol via Isobilny and Novoalexandrowsk .
From the mid-1980s, a railway line from Peschanokopskaya (between Salsk and Belaya Glina ) to Peredowaja (near Isobilny) was built via Krasnogwardeiskoje ( Krasnaya Gwardija station ) and was provisionally put into operation in 1989. As early as the 1990s, the section between Peschanokopskaya and Krasnaya Gwardija, which was also in deficit due to the decline of the Russian economy, was shut down again and dismantled after 1998. On the remaining branch line Peredovaya - Krasnaya Gwardija there is only freight traffic.
