history

In 1795, the village of Alschejewo, mainly inhabited by Bashkirs , was founded in the area of ​​today's town .

In 1890, resettlers from other parts of Russia leased land from nearby landowner Rajew and founded several settlements. One of the places was named after the landowner Rajewka, another Alschejewski after the village of Alschejewo.

During this time, the former Samara-Slatouster Railway was also run through the area, which connected Samara on the Volga via Ufa and Zlatoust with Chelyabinsk in the Southern Urals and was opened along its entire length in 1892. A few years later, the route became part of the Trans-Siberian Railway (originally the main, now the southern route), which made the villages with their Rajewka railway station important for local trade.

In 1920 there were already around 5800 people in Rajewka, Alschejewo and Alschejewski, including almost 300 Russian Germans . In 1935 the Alschejewski Rajon of the Bashkir ASSR was founded, the administrative center became Alschejewo. In 1938, the places that had grown together in the meantime were officially united and were given the status of an urban-type settlement under their current name . Although the district administrative center was now called Rajewski, the district kept its original name to this day.

In 2005 the place was again downgraded to a village (or a rural settlement ).
