Znamenskoye ( Russian Знаменское ; Chechen ЧӀулга-Юрт Tschulga-Yurt ) is a village (selo) in the Republic of Chechnya in Russia with 10,286 inhabitants (14 October 2010).

geography

The place is located in the northern foothills of the Caucasus about 60 km as the crow flies northwest of the republic capital Grozny on the right bank of the Terek , near the border with the Stavropol region .

Znamenskoye is the administrative center of the Rajons Nadteretschny and seat and only town in the rural community of Znamenskoye selskoje posselenije.

history

The place was founded in 1809 as a Chechen village with the name Tschulik-Yurt (Russified form) opposite the Terek Cossacks - Stanitsa Ishchorskaya . Later it was also called Muldar-Jurt or Mundar-Jurt after a Kabardian prince, as it was located on the territory of the Little Kabarda at that time .

After the deportation of the Chechen population in 1944, the village got its current name from the Russian snamja for banner (common in the Soviet Union in the form of red banner ). On February 1, 1963, the administrative seat of the Nadteretschny rajon, which had existed since 1926 (about "Rajon above the Terek"), was moved from the village of Nadteretschnoje (until 1944 Nizhny Naur ) to Znamenskoye .

At Znamenskoye, the first fighting between forces of Chechen President Jokhar Dudayev and the opposition under Umar Avturchanov took place in September 1994 in the run-up to the First Chechen War, which began in December 1994 .
