Story

Founded in 1910 as the village of Taubevskaya

Second Don District of the Don Army Region. The village was named in honor of the assigned military ataman, a German by birth, Baron Fedor Fedorovich Taube. The foundation of the village of Taubevskaya was preceded by the construction (from 1898 to 1900) of the Likhaya - Tsaritsyn railway line. The largest station on this section was Morozovskaya station (named after the nearby Morozovsky farmstead). In addition to the locomotive depot and other railway services, a railway settlement grew nearby. The sprawling farmsteads of Basov and Lyubimov came close to it.

In 1902, a meat trader named Razluka built a mechanized hunting slaughterhouse - today's meat processing plant. And entrepreneur Popov, who came from the village of Tsimlyanskaya, opened an iron foundry workshop on the banks of the Bystraya River for the repair of lobogreki and plows (today it is the Morozovskselmash plant).

The settlement of the newly formed village began in the spring of 1911. By the end of 1911, there were 300 new households in the village.

When the First World War began, German names began to be eradicated in Russia. The villagers gathered for a meeting and made their decision:

Verdict No. 116, June 29, 1915, Second Don District stanitsa gathering Taubevskaya, consisting of: the chairman of the stanitsa ataman, constable Gnutov, and those who appeared at this gathering from among 86 Cossacks - officials of the stanitsa and farm administrations. Without touching on the personality of the late Ataman F. F. Taube, who served a lot for the Fatherland in general and the Don society in particular, the collection is aware of one thing, that the very name Taubevskaya, as a German word, is alien to the Cossacks, especially with the outbreak of hostilities with the hated Germans (the war of 1914 .), became unbearable, and abusive towards us, since the Cossacks of neighboring villages mockingly call us “fons”, therefore the collection sentenced: to petition for the renaming of our village, giving it a Russian name.
