history
The place was created in the 1870s in connection with the construction of the Koslow - Saratow railway line around the Umjot station built there , named after the nearby village of Gradski Umjot, first mentioned in 1710 (so called in contrast to the village of Peressypkinski Umjot 15 km to the west, also Sofjino, today Sofjinka ). The village and the station settlement belonged to the Ujesd Kirsanow of the Tambov governorate .
On January 18, 1935, the village of Gradski Umjot became the administrative seat of a newly created Rajon. In 1968 the station settlement, which had already been larger and more economically important since the 1930s, was given the status of an urban-type settlement, and the district administration was relocated there.
