Sergijewsk ( Russian Сергиевск ) is a village (selo) and former city in Samara Oblast ( Russia ) with 8661 inhabitants (as of October 14, 2010).
geography
The place is about 100 kilometers as the crow flies northeast of the Samara Oblast Administrative Center on the right bank of the left Volga tributary Sok , a little below the confluence of the left tributary Surgut .
Sergijewsk is the administrative center of him named Rajons Sergijevski and the rural municipality of the same name (selskoje posselenije) , (km 12 northeast) which also includes the three villages Borowka, Studjony Kliuch (10 km west) and Uspenka (10 km northwest) and the four settlements ( possjolok) Gluboki (7 km northeast), Michailowka (13 km north), Rogatka (5 km northeast) and Rybopitomnik (10 km west-southwest) belong.
history
The place goes back to a fortress built in 1703 not far from the then southeast border of the Russian Empire to the inner-Asian steppe areas as part of the "New" or "Second Trans- Kama Line" ( Novo-Sakamskaja or Wtoraja Sakamskaja linija ). The name of the fortress (Sergijewskaja krepost) and thus the current place name refers to St. Sergius of Radonezh .
With the shift of the border to the southeast, the fortress lost its military importance as early as the 1730s. The settlement that arose near the fortress became the administrative seat of a Ujesd of Orenburg Oblast in 1782 within the governorship of Ufa and received city rights as such. The Ujesd was dissolved again in 1784 and joined the Ujesd Buguruslan of the Ufa Oblast, from which the Ufa Governorate emerged in 1796 ; Sergievsk had the status of a city without an administrative function (saschtatny gorod). In 1851 the place came with the Ujesd to the newly formed Samara Gouvernement , now with the status of a "suburb" (prigorod) and subsequently as the seat of a Volost .
With the introduction of the Rajon subdivision, Sergievsk became the administrative seat of a Rajon named after him on July 16, 1928 - at the latest from this point in time with the status of a village, initially within the Okrug Buguruslan of the Middle Volga Oblast (Sredne-Wolschskaja oblast), from which, after several administrative ones Redesign and renaming in 1936 the Kuibyshev Oblast emerged as a direct forerunner of today's Samara Oblast.
