Tugulym ( Russian Тугулы́м ) is an urban-type settlement in the Sverdlovsk Oblast in Russia with 6001 inhabitants (as of October 14, 2010).
geography
The place is about 250 km as the crow flies east of the Yekaterinburg Oblast Administrative Center and a good 50 km west of the neighboring Tyumen Oblast center . It is located in the western part of the West Siberian lowlands , in the foothills of the Urals , on the Tugulymka, a left tributary of the Pyschma flowing 10 km south of the place .
Tugulym is the administrative center of the Tugulym district , which includes 51 villages and rural settlements. The settlement is free of communes, as there is no corresponding administrative level (here township / gorodskoje posselenije ), as is common in urban districts in Russia.
history
The place was first mentioned towards the end of the 17th century. The name, presumably derived from the original name of the river, is of Turkic origin and has not yet been definitively clarified, and goes back to the Tyumen or Siberian Tatars who lived in the area before the Russian colonization . On June 17, 1925, Tugulym became the administrative seat of a Rajons named after him. It has had urban-type settlement status since 1962. On January 1, 2006, the Rajon was converted into an urban district.
