geography
The place is about 260 km as the crow flies east-southeast of the Saratov Oblast Administrative Center , just under 10 km from the state border with Kazakhstan . It is located on the upper reaches of the left Kamelik tributary Bolshaya Chalykla (Great Chalykla).
Osinki is the administrative center of Osinski Rajons and the seat of the municipality of Osinskoje gorodskoje posselenije, which also includes the settlements Iswestkowy Zavod ("Kalkwerk", 2 km west), Nepryachin (8 km north) and Stoljary (4 km north-northeast).
history
The place was in 1873 as a hamlet (Khutor) Osinski founded just west of today's local situation (today as Starye Osinki, called "Alt-Osinki"). With the passing of the railway line to Uralsk (today Oral in Kazakhstan) and the construction of a station in the 1890s, a larger settlement emerged at the current location. On July 23, 1928 this became the administrative seat of the newly created Rajons named after her. In 1940 the place received the status of an urban-type settlement under its current name.
