History of Omutninsky district

The area is inhabited by Russians whose religion is Orthodox. This is due to the fact that in 1582 Russian settlement occurred after the Verkhovyatsky Catherine Monastery was built. Before this time, around 1543, the city of Shestakov was built, a new district was formed, where Udmurts, Russians and Komi-Permyaks lived.

• Kirs Attractions
• Lebyazhsky district of Kirov region

The territory of the Omutninsky district was rich in forests and ore, which

contributed to the construction of an iron smelting plant in 1773. The first settlement where workers lived also appeared here. Subsequently, it was named Omutninsk, and popularly called the “Omutninsky Plant”. The district appeared in 1929 and was part of the Nizhny Novgorod region of the Vyatka district. In the 30s of the 20th century, a railway was built through the village. Today, the distance to Kirov is 232 km, if you travel by train. In addition to the metallurgical industry, the microbiological industry is also developed here. In 1958, a chemical plant appeared. As in the old days, the area is rich in forest, so work related to its harvesting is carried out here. From an archaeological point of view, the Verkhnevyatsky region is very interesting and little explored. Treasures of gold coins (Golden Horde) were found here, as well as ingots of silver coins.
