history

Residential house in Pridonskoy

The history of the settlement begins in 1929, when the construction of a fruit processing factory (production of dried fruit and wine, starch ) and the associated residential area, which initially belonged to the nearby village of Podkletnoye, began here. The population rose to around 400 by 1940.

During the Second World War , the settlement was occupied by the German Wehrmacht in July 1942 . Previously, the plant, the planned evacuation of which to Yaroslavl was not carried out, had been burned down by workers. In the course of the fighting, the front line ran in close proximity for six months, in the urban area of ​​Voronezh, until the entire city and its western suburbs were recaptured on January 25, 1943 by troops of the Voronezh Front of the Red Army .

After the war, the settlement was rebuilt and in 1963 received the status of an urban-type settlement within the Semiluki district under the name of Pridonskoi (from Russian pri Donu for on the Don or this side of the Don , from the point of view of the city of Voronezh) . In the 1970s, the settlement was subordinated to the Voronezh city administration or its Stadtrajon Sowetski, but remained an independent village. On January 1, 2011 Pridonskoi was incorporated into Voronezh.
