Historical reference

In the first half of the 19th century, on the banks of the Angara there was a small settlement called Svirskaya. Gradually Svirskoye grew and transformed. After the civil war, after collectivization, which destroyed the traditional way of life of the Siberian village community, industrialization came. The Angarsk Metallurgical Plant (arsenic plant) was put into operation, construction began on the Cheremkhovo-Svirsk railway line, which played an important role in the formation of the city of Svirsk, the commissioning of facilities and the construction of its own thermal power plant began. Schools and kindergartens are being built. On September 20, 1940, the plant of chemical current sources No. 389 came into operation at existing enterprises in the country. Every third resident of Svirsk becomes an employee of the plant.

The Great Patriotic War went on thousands of kilometers from the Angarsk shores, but its cruel breath scorched the distant Siberian working-class village of Svirsk. More than two thousand Svir residents went to defend their homeland, every third did not return. From 1941 to 1945, Secondary School No. 1 of Svirsk housed a military hospital. In August 1941, the Leningrad Battery Plant was evacuated to the Svirsky Power Source Plant No. 389. Three months later, his first products went to the front. Subsequently, a city-forming city was created on its basis.

Svirsk received a new stage of development after the Great Patriotic War. By this time, Svirsk had outgrown the framework of a workers' village and on November 16, 1949 it was given the status of a city. The combination of the water surface of the Angara, the steep, forested banks of the right bank and the coastal terrace makes the surrounding terrain and the overall appearance of Svirsk picturesque. The visiting card of the city was the groves of ship pines on the shore and the cranes of the Svir river port. The post-war years were characterized by the dynamic development of leading factories. New enterprises are appearing (“Automotive Special Equipment”, “Mechanical Repair”, “Barkhatovskaya Timber Transshipment Base”), the social and cultural sphere is developing, sports, healthcare, housing is being commissioned.
