history
The place arose in the first third of the 18th century as a post office on the Moscow wing . At the end of the 19th century the Trans-Siberian Railway was passed by.
Located in an area with a predominantly Buryat population, Kutulik came on January 9, 1922 to Alarski Aimak (Buryat name for Rajon) of the newly formed Mongolian-Buryat Autonomous Oblast, from which the Buryat ASSR emerged in 1923 . Initially, the administrative headquarters were in the village of Omuljowka , 10 km south, but in 1928 it was moved to Kutulik. The regions north-west of Lake Baikal belonging to the ASSR , including the Alarski rajon, formed the Ust-Ordynsk Buryat Autonomous Okrug from September 26, 1937 , which became a federal subject in the Irkutsk Oblast on December 31, 2007 , but still has a special status. From 1944 to 1992, Kutulik had urban-type settlement status .
