history

At the old Chechen Aul Ena-Yurt (or Ena-Chishkha), the Russian Army built a fortification called Pregradny Stan in 1819 during the Caucasus War . In 1846 the Stanitsa Mikhailovskaya was built there, like the church there named after the Archangel Michael . Healing springs that have been known since the beginning of the 19th century not far from the town were used in the spa after initial work in 1848 .

From 1920 Mikhailovskaya belonged to the Sunsha Cossack - Okrug (Sunschenski kasatschi okrug). In the mid-1920s, the Cossacks were evacuated from part of the stanizi of the area, and on March 8, 1926 the Novotschetschenski rajon ("Neutschetschenischer Rajon"), the center of which was the newly settled Stanitsa Mikhailovskaya under the name Aslambek (in the Russian form Aslambekowskoje ) was. On February 11, 1929, the Rajon, together with the rest of the Cossack Okrug, became the Sunschenski rajon of the Chechen Autonomous Oblast , which had existed since 1922 , which was initially merged with the Ingush Autonomous Oblast to form the Checheno-Ingush Autonomous Oblast in 1934 and into the Chechen-Ingush ASSR in 1936 was converted. From its foundation, the administrative seat of the Sunschensky rajon was in Stanitsa Sleptsovskaya (renamed Ordzhonikidsewskaya in 1939 and Sunsha in 2016 ). After the deportation of the Chechen population in 1944, Aslambekovskoye was given its current name with reference to the healing springs, from Russian sera for sulfur and voda for water; the spa town occupying the northern part of the village also in the form of Sernovodsk. The form Sernowodskaja (female with reference to the settlement type of a Stanitsa) was also official for the entire village .

With the partition of Checheno-Ingushetia in 1992, the greater part of the Rajon with the administrative seat Sunsha (until 2016 under the name Ordzhonikidsewskaya ) came to Ingushetia; a small part, to which only Stanitsa Assinovskaya belongs as the only other place , came to Chechnya, and Sernovodskoye became its center.
