history

The place was first mentioned in 1585 and at that time already had two churches. It belonged first to Ujesd Jarensk , from 1780 to the newly formed Ujesd Ust-Syssolsk (today Syktywkar), from 1796 part of the Vologda governorate . The village gained local importance due to its favorable traffic situation on a road that was important until the 18th century for the connection to Siberia  - later to the Pechora region - and due to the mining of iron ore in the area in the 17th to 18th centuries. Wisinga was the seat of a Wolost .

After the formation of the Autonomous Oblast of the Komi (Syrian) in 1921, Ujesd, which had since been dissolved, was restored in 1922 and renamed Syssolski ujesd in 1926 . With the introduction of the Rajon division in the Oblast on July 15, 1929, the Syssolski rajon (named after the river) with its seat in Wisinga was formed from a part of the former Ujesd. From December 5, 1936 he was part of the ASSR of the Komi , from which today's republic emerged.
