history
The place has been known as a village since the 15th century. The place name is derived from the Russian sem bratjew for "seven brothers", but the exact background of this name is unclear. In 1693 a post office was built there on the connection between Moscow and Arkhangelsk .
After the railway line Moscow - Yaroslavl - Arkhangelsk had passed by in 1870, the first industrial plants were set up, initially for processing agricultural products, and in 1930 a factory for insulation materials , which was reconstructed in 1949 and from 1959 also produced chipboard . In 1950 a gas cleaning plant was added.
On June 11, 1948, Semibratowo received urban-type settlement status.
