history

Today's Novopskow was founded in the middle of the 17th century by Russian and Ukrainian peasants who had fled serfdom under the name Sakam'janka (Ukrainian Закам'янка ). In 1708 Tsar Peter I initiated a punitive expedition against the village, during which the town was razed to the ground. In 1829 the village was converted into a military settlement and received its current name from the Russian city of Pskov . On June 10, 1942, the village was occupied by Wehrmacht troops and liberated by Red Army troops on January 23, 1943 . In 1957 Novopskow was given the status of an urban-type settlement. In the years 1975–1979 the Soyuz gas pipeline was built through the town, which crosses here with another pipeline.
