history

The place was first mentioned in 1616 under the name Iwakino . After the construction of a wooden church consecrated to Nikolaus von Myra in 1659 (replaced by a stone church in 1836), it was appropriately referred to as Nikolskoje ; this name remained in use until the late 19th century as an alternative to the current name for the river. The river name is related to the Mari word piste for " linden tree ". As a result, the village and large parts of the surrounding lands were owned by well-known people, for example in the 17th century the Russian- Polish-Lithuanian aristocratic family Mstislawski (Mścisławski), from 1742 by the entrepreneur Akinfi Demidow , and at the end of the 19th century by the politician Iwan Durnowo and from 1914 of General Pawel Skoropadski . From 1778 the village belonged to the Ujesd Wetluga of the Kostroma governorship, from 1796 to the Kostroma governorate , and became the seat of a Volost there in the 19th century .

By resolution of July 5, 1922, the Ujesd was given to the Nizhny Novgorod Governorate . As part of the dissolution of the governorates and Ujesde, a raion with its seat in Pyshchug was formed on July 15, 1929 as part of the new Nizhny Novgorod region (until 1930 in the portfolio of Okrug Sharja ). After various administrative changes - renaming of the region to Gorky region on October 7, 1932, assignment of the raion to the Gorky Oblast (now Nizhny Novgorod Oblast), which was formed from part of the region on December 5, 1936 - the raion finally came on August 13 1944 to the newly formed Kostroma Oblast.
