history

The place emerged as a station settlement towards the end of the 19th century, after the Trans-Siberian Railway had passed there and opened on this section in 1896 with a station named after the nearby river, not far from the village of Prokudskoje , which was already relatively large at that time, north of the railway line .

From the 1930s onwards, the place gained greater importance as a residential area for various Red Army facilities , such as an artillery firing range extending to the south and a factory for military measuring instruments opened in 1939. Since 1946 the place has had the status of an urban-type settlement.
