history

The village arose around 1700 on land that belonged to the Trinity Monastery of Sergiev Posad and was initially called Sergievskoye after the local church consecrated to Saint Sergius of Radonezh . Russian peasants belonging to the monastery and Mordvins newly converted to Christianity lived in the village . As a result, after the name of the river and the majority of the population, the current place name with the meaning "Russian Kameshkir" became popular, in contrast to the old Mordovian village near the mouth of the river, originally called Kimishkir , which to this day Mordovsky Kameshkir, i.e. "Mordovian -Kameshkir "means.

The village became the seat of a Volost in Ujesd Kuznetsk , which from 1780 belonged to the Saratov governorate, from December 1796 to March 1797 briefly to the then temporarily disbanded Penza governorate and then to the Saratov governorate .

On July 16, 1928, Russki Kameshkir became the administrative seat of a newly created Rajon. This was in the meantime dissolved from 1963 to 1965, and its territory was annexed to the Kuznetsky rajon.
