Nurlat

Nurlat

- a city in Russia, the administrative center of the Nurlatsky district of Tatarstan. The city is located on a tributary of the Volga, the Kondurcha River, 224 km from Kazan.

According to scientists from the Institute of History and Archeology, ancient settlements on the territory of the Nurlat region existed already in the Stone Age, during the Paleolithic. The largest of them are Novoalmetyevskoye and Novoamzinskoye, and in the third millennium BC Kiekle and Kizlyau arose.

Already in the 7th-9th centuries, the Bulgars built their cities and villages here. They founded the villages of Bilyar-Ozero, Krivoe Ozero, and Chulpanovo. A fertile climate, fertile chernozem soils, rich meadows and forests - life in the region was well-fed and calm. After the conquest of the Kazan Khanate by Ivan the Terrible in 1552, many defenders of Kazan found refuge in these parts.

Nurlat - radiant horse Back in the 19th century there was a village of Nurlaty, the name of which came from Nurly At - Nurly (Radiant), At (Horse).

The settlement of Nurlat as a station on the Simbirsk-Ufa railway line officially appeared on maps of Russia in 1911. But it was founded in 1905 as a station village in connection with the construction of the railway. Here, to the site of the future regional center, two families of railway workers arrived in 1909 and began to lay a local piece of the railway line. Construction of the station began with the construction of a booth near the semaphore.

In the “Memorial Book of the Samara Province” for 1910 it is written: “ Currently, a new rail track is being built, which will serve as a continuation of the Volga-Bugulma railway and connect the cities of Bugulma and Simbirsk. The new rail track, passing through rich commercial and industrial areas, where until now there was only horse transport, will significantly increase trade and economic well-being of the population

In those days they worked only with the help of shovels and horses, but they built roads quickly; the new railway was ready within two years. On August 28, 1911, the first train passed here. Then houses appeared along the railway station, water pumps, and the first depot building.

The First World War and the years of the Civil War led the railway to a state of complete neglect. It took years to restore, but the efforts and dedication of people yielded results.

The updated Volga-Bugulma road was connected to the Samara-Zlatoust highway. In 1938, the station village became a workers' village, and in 1961 a city. By this time, the road had switched to electric and diesel traction. The first diesel locomotive passed through Nurlat in July 1962.

On December 10, 1997, by decision of the State Council of the Republic of Tatarstan, the city of Nurlat was classified as a city of republican subordination. So Nurlat has come a long way from a trackman’s booth to a modern city.

The population of the city is more than 32 thousand people (2020).

Day of the city

in Nurlat it is celebrated in the fall.

HISTORY OF NURLAT The history of the Nurlat region goes back to Bulgarian times. Then many Bulgar settlements were founded in the region. Among them, Novoalmetyevskoye and Novoamzinsky settlements were the largest. After the conquest of the Kazan Khanate by Ivan the Terrible in 1552, many defenders of Kazan found refuge in these parts. Later, a number of Tatar villages appeared here - Burmetyevo, Kurmanaevo, Upper and Lower Nurlat, Savinovo, Stepnoe Lake, Chulpanovo, as well as villages founded by pagan Chuvash - Bilyar-Ozero, Elaur, Egorkino, Vishnevaya Polyana, Starye Chelny and some others. Regarding the Tatar villages of Burmetyevo and Kurmanaevo, located on the Bolshoi Cheremshan River, as well as Upper and Lower Nurlat on the Kondurche River, early information is scanty. There is evidence dating back to the 16th century that certain groups of Prikazan Tatars settled on the Volga, in particular, in the lower reaches of the Bolshoi Cheremshan River. The Tatars of the Yegorka volost, formed during the zemstvo reform of 1864, have preserved legends that their ancestors formerly lived north of Cheremshan, along the Sulcha River, where Tyurnyasevo and Erikly are now. The settlement of Nurlat appears on maps of Russia in 1911 - as a station on the Simbirsk-Ufa railway line.

Back in 1905, two families of railway workers came here to the site of the future regional center. They were the first to lay the local piece of the railway line. Construction of the station began with the construction of a booth near the semaphore. Sleepers and rails were unloaded there. In the “Memorable Book of the Samara Province” for 1910 we read: “Currently, a new rail track is being built, which will serve as a continuation of the Volga-Bugulma railway and will connect the cities of Bugulma and Simbirsk, passing through the northern part of the Stavropol and Samara districts along the Chistopol border. The new rail route, passing through rich commercial and industrial areas, where hitherto there was only horse traffic, will significantly increase trade and the economic well-being of the population.” In those days they worked only with the help of shovels and horses, but they built roads quickly; the new railway was ready within two years. On August 28, 1911, the first train passed here. Then houses appeared along the railway station, water pumps, and the first depot building.

The First World War, which began in 1914, and then the years of the Civil War led the railway to a state of complete neglect. It took years of titanic restoration work, but efforts and dedication yielded results. The updated Volga-Bugulma road was connected to the Samara-Zlatoust highway. Years passed... Soon the road switched to electric and diesel traction. The first diesel locomotive passed through Nurlat in July 1962. In 1964, the Nurlat depot became a branch of the Ulyanovsk depot, and the track station was transferred to Melekess.

In 1930, Nurlat became a regional center. The evolution in the name of the city and region is interesting. At first it was called South Nurlat, later Nurlat-Oktyabrsky. More recently, the district became Nurlatsky. On December 10, 1997, by decision of the State Council of the Republic of Tatarstan, the city of Nurlat was classified as a city of republican subordination. In 2009, the city celebrated its centenary of its founding. This celebration was held on June 12 and combined with Russia Day. As of 2009, about 35 thousand people live in the city of Nurlat.
