geography

The place is about 400 km as the crow flies east-northeast of the regional capital Chita in a relatively wide basin , called Ksenjewka Depression (Ksenjewskaja wpadina) , between the 1,500  m high Khorkovy and Cheromny mountain ridges in the northwest and the 1,300  m high Sobatschkinkamm in the southeast. The valley is crossed by the Tschorny Urjum (Black Urjum), the left source river of the Shilka tributary Chornaya , into which the Itaka flows from the right at Ksenjewka .

Ksenjewka belongs to the Mogotschinsky Rajon and is located about 70 km west-southwest of its administrative center Mogotscha . The settlement is the seat of the municipality of Ksenjewskoje gorodskoje posselenije, which also includes the urban-type Itaka settlement (35 km north), the Gorky settlement (4 km south-west) and the station settlements of Kendagiry (18 km south-west) and Kisly Klyuch (30 km north-east) .

history

The place was created in 1908 in connection with the construction of the Amur railway Kuenga  - Khabarovsk . The station and location were named after the daughter Ksenija ( Xenia ) of the Russian conqueror Yerofei Khabarov (the city of Khabarovsk is named after Khabarov himself, as well as a station of the Amur railway located further east, and today's settlement in the Amur Oblast , Jerofei Pavlovich ). . Since 1939 Ksenjewka has had the status of an urban-type settlement.
