Since the middle of the 16th century, the history of the Bashkir people has been inextricably linked with Russia. The leader of the Tamyan tribe, Shagali Shakman, was one of the initiators and leaders of the annexation of the southeastern Bashkirs into the Russian state. As part of the united embassy of these Bashkirs, he traveled to Kazan to visit the Tsar’s governor. As a result of negotiations, the Tamyans became part of the Russian state and received a charter for patrimonial ownership of the land, and Shagali Shakman biy received the title of Tarkhan. The Beloretsk land is also associated with the name of Shagali Shakman. His descendant, Kagarman, founded the village of Kagarmanovo, where, according to legend, Shagali Shakman is buried. Now his grave has been restored and has become a particularly revered place for everyone who cherishes the memory of their ancestors.

From the 2nd half of the 18th century, mining factories began to be built on the territory of the modern Beloretsk region. In 1753, Count P.I. Shuvalov and K. Matveev founded the Avzyano-Petrovsky factories. In 1762, Simbirsk merchants I. B. Tverdyshev and I. S. Myasnikov founded the Beloretsky plant, E. Demidov built the Kaginsky plant in 1769, and the Uzyansky plant in 1777.

One of the memorable events in the history of Belorechye was the participation of residents of factory villages in the Peasant War of 1773-1775 under the leadership of Emelyan Pugachev.

In 1784, the Beloretsky plant was inherited by D.I. Pashkova, who in 1803 began construction of the Tirlyansky plant. At the beginning of the 19th century, the Beloretsk plant operated 2 blast furnaces, 11 forges and 10 water hammers. Great strides have been made in metal production. Cast iron produced at the Beloretsk plant was the cheapest in the Southern Urals, and iron was famous for its easy malleability when cold. In 1874, the trading house “Vogau and Co” became its owner, which organized the joint-stock company “Beloretsk Pashkov Plants”. At the end of the 19th century, at the All-Russian Nizhny Novgorod Exhibition, the Beloretsk plant was awarded the highest award - the State Emblem - for excellent iron production.

In the 90s of the 19th century, the village of Beloretsky Plant had 15 thousand inhabitants, was part of the Verkhneuralsky district of the Orenburg province, and since 1917 became part of the Tamyan-Kataysky canton of the ASBR (since 1919 the BASSR, now the Republic of Bashkortostan).

A big milestone in the history of the city was the raid of the partisan army under the command of V.K. Blucher.

In 1922, the Beloretsk district was formed in the South Ural Trust. In 1926, the factory village was transformed into the city of Beloretsk. The population of the new city, together with the village of Tirlyan and the village of Lomovka, numbered 28,830 people. In 1930, the Beloretsky district was formed. During these same years, a radical reconstruction of the Beloretsk plants began: new blast furnaces were built at the metallurgical plant, open-hearth production was mechanized; At the Tirlyansky sheet rolling plant, the replacement of water and steam drives with electric motors, etc. began.

During the Great Patriotic War, thousands of Beloretsk residents took part in battles with the Nazi invaders. For their courage and bravery, many of them were awarded orders and medals; 13 Beloretsk residents were awarded the high title of Hero of the Soviet Union. In the 2nd half of 1941, an extremely alarming situation arose in the country's hardware industry. The only enterprise that could ensure the fulfillment of military orders was the Beloretsk Steel Wire and Rope Plant. Without Beloretsk wire, from which mechanism springs, ball bearings, aircraft ropes, etc. were made, not a single type of military equipment could operate. Thanks to the accumulated production experience, the material base created in the 30s and the presence of the Beloretsk Metallurgical Plant, which supplied the necessary grades of steel, and most importantly - thanks to the inhumanly intense work of thousands of half-starved Beloretsk residents throughout the war, the plant coped with the fulfillment of orders.
