Lebediny belongs to the Aldanski Rajon and is located 15 km south-southeast of its administrative center Aldan . The settlement belongs to the municipality (gorodskoje posselenije) Possjolok Leninsky, whose administrative seat, the urban-type Leninsky settlement , is about 9 km north, also downstream on the Bolshoi Kuranach. After the administrative reform of 2004, the settlement initially belonged to the non-parish area (meschselennaja territorija) of the Rajons until 2008 .

history

The place was founded in 1927 in connection with the discovery and development of gold deposits , named like the mine of the same name, which was commissioned in 1933 (from Russian lebed for swan ). It was initially part of Orotschen , about 4 km to the west , which was given the status of an urban-type settlement in 1932. With advancing mining, the settlement center shifted to the current location of Lebediny. In 1969 Orotschen (today Orotschen Perwy, in contrast to Orotschen Wtoroi, a few kilometers to the north ) was downgraded to a village, but Lebediny became an independent urban-type settlement. When gold mining stopped in the 1990s, more than half of the population left the settlement.
