The city of Bogotol (translated from the Turkic language - small valley) received its name from the village of Old Bogotol.

The settlement has been known since quite ancient times. A trade was established in the local village, which supplied workers in the gold mines with everything they needed. In addition, there was also a station for exiles, as well as their settlements. The nearby highway, which connected almost all of Siberia, had a great influence on the development of the village. The legend about the elder Fyodor Kuzmich is associated with the Bogotol land. It was here that this mysterious character lived, in whom many see the abdicated Emperor Alexander I.

The construction of the railway brought new life to this village. In 1893, Bogotol station was founded. Since 1911, Bogotol has become a city. Large railway workshops are being created along with the station. They employed a large number of fairly qualified workers, so the Russian revolutions were met here with understanding and approval. During the Civil War, local residents mainly supported the Bolsheviks. Red Guard detachments and several partisan brigades were created to fight the Czechoslovak corps and White Guard units.

In the 1920-1930s, the station grew and new production areas were created. During this period, Bogotol was a major commercial and industrial center. The first “legends” appear - machinists and railway workers, awarded the highest awards for their dedicated work.

In the period 1941-1945, thousands of conscripts left Bogotol for the front. Many of them died or went missing, many returned. Among the natives of Bogotol there is a front-line soldier awarded the title Hero of the Soviet Union.

After the Victory, Bogotol is actively developing. A carriage repair plant and the production of metalworking tools are being built, and the agricultural industry is being actively developed. The city is becoming a major railway junction, which cannot but influence its development.

Among the attractions are a temple built in 1988, a monument to a steam locomotive, as well as a monument to fighters for the cause of the revolution. There are memorials to participants in the Great Patriotic War and those who died from wounds in the Bogotol hospital. The city has a historical and ethnographic museum.

The modern city of Bogotol is one of the large railway junctions of the Krasnoyarsk Territory; numerous railway services are located here: a locomotive depot, a carriage depot, a track distance, a communication distance, a power supply section.
