history
The place was first mentioned in 1616 as an already larger Russian settlement, which probably emerged soon after the end of the Moscow-Kazan wars in 1552. The place belonged to the Ujesd Alatyr , which in the course of the 18th century belonged temporarily to the governorates of Kazan and Nizhny Novgorod , from 1780 finally to the governorate, from 1796 governorate Simbirsk .
With the formation of the Chuvash ASSR on April 21, 1925 from the Chuvash Autonomous Oblast, which had existed since 1920, the Ujesd Alatyr was attached to it. On September 5, 1927, the Porezki rajon was spun off from the Ujesd Alatyr, with its administrative headquarters in Porezkoje.
