history
The place was first mentioned in 1572 in connection with a noble family Michnew, who came from the village of Astafjewo, five kilometers away, and which over time also acquired other surrounding villages such as Jekimatowo, Myasnoye and Sidorowo. In 1722, on the orders of Peter I, a state-owned factory for the manufacture of canvas for the Russian army was built. The factory was later converted into a weaving mill.
At the end of the 19th century, the Moscow - Pavelets railway line of the Ryazan-Uralsk Railway was led past, and a station settlement of the same name was built at the station a little away from the original village. In 1957 the settlement at the Michnewo railway station was given the status of an urban-type settlement under this name. 2001 Jekimatowo and the previously independent original village Michnewo were incorporated, in 2004 Astafjewo.
