Chuna population. Historical information. Chunsky district: general information

Indigenous people district - Evenks (Tungus). Changes in the national composition of the population and an increase in numbers began in the second half of the 17th century, with the development Eastern Siberia Russian explorers. In 1859, the List of Populated Places of the Yenisei Province included many old-time settlements, some of which are still part of the region to this day. In the old days, “dissidents” were exiled here.

The village of Chunsky owes its emergence primarily to the construction railway line Taishet-Lena, which is in 1938-1958 g.g. was carried out by prisoners. Route railway due to the peculiarities of the terrain, it lay away from the old-timer villages. And new settlements became station villages: Parchum, Kamensk, st. Novochunka, Oktyabrsky, Izykan, Targiz, where the city-forming enterprises were timber industry enterprises, in large quantities supplying timber to the national economy of the USSR.

In 1945 Construction of the Baikal-Amur Railway began. The construction of the century required manpower: This is why an extensive network of forced labor camps was created. There were quite a few lagot sections (columns) on the territory of the modern Chunsky district. Each such column - an island of the Gulag - had its own specialization: logging, construction or excavation work, auxiliary production, etc. They contained from 200 to 800 or more prisoners.

The construction of the railway required sleepers, which required new workshops. AND in June 1947 A timber mill was put into operation, which produced up to 380 cubic meters of forest products per day. A month later, a carpentry shop was launched.

Had to work in harsh conditions climatic conditions: in winter the frosts reached -60 0, when even the metal could not withstand it and the mechanisms failed. And in the summer, the first builders were overcome by midges, and without mosquito nets it was impossible to take a single step. All around there is centuries-old taiga, impenetrable swamps, and only with the help of a saw, axe, pick, shovel, crowbar and wheelbarrow, areas for housing were conquered meter by meter. For a long time, Chuna was a group of scattered camp towns connected by a dirt road along the railroad track. The pits for the first comfortable houses began to be dug only in 1959-1960.

In 1949. The Mironovsky Village Council was formed, which included the village of Chuna and 19 other small settlements. Already in 1950, there was a communications department at the railway station.

December 12 1953 based on the Decree of the Presidium Supreme Council The RSFSR formed the Chunsky district with its center in the village of Oktyabrsky. The district included 3 village councils of the Alzamai district, 6 village councils of the Shitkinsky district, the settlement of Parenda of the Taishet district and part of the territory of the Bratsk village council.

In 1955. Oktyabrsky and Chunsky village councils were formed, and the villages themselves were classified as working villages. The Chunsky LZK, today the largest timber processing enterprise in the region, until the early 60s of the last century was a large camp farm with primitive equipment and cheap labor of prisoners (transported to Mordovlag in 1961). Among the barracks, buildings stood out noticeably high school No. 90 and the Zheleznodorozhnik club, commissioned in the fall of 1951. In the early 60s, a brick school and a public bathhouse appeared.

Since January 1, 1963 The Chunsky district was liquidated, its territory was transferred to the neighboring regions: Bratsky and Taishetsky. In August 1964 The Chunsky industrial district was formed as part of the urban settlement. Oktyabrsky (the center of the district), Lesogorsky, Chunsky and rural councils: Bayorsky, Novochunsky, Tareysky and Targizsky.

Oktyabrsky in r.p. Chuna “due to the impossibility of locating district institutions and organizations in the village. Oktyabrsky due to the lack of necessary office and residential premises in it.., and also taking into account the fact that in the r.p. Chuna is home to the main industrial enterprises, it is the largest village and is located in the center of the region.” The request was granted. The Chunsky industrial region was liquidated.

01/12/1965 The Chunsky district was newly created, consisting of 3 settlements and 9 rural councils, and its administrative and territorial boundaries were approved.

Development plans served as a powerful impetus for the construction of housing and social and cultural facilities in Chuna national economy USSR. They, in particular, provided for the creation of the Chunsky timber industry complex. In the early 70s, urban planning began actively in the regional center. It was carried out around the clock by the forces of SMU-8, and 2-3 apartment buildings were handed over per year. Social facilities were built.

In connection with perestroika in the 80s, the pace of construction slowed down, and the form of ownership of enterprises began to change.

In March 1994 The Chunsky district administration was transformed into the Chunsky district mayor's office. On August 19, 1996, the Charter of the Chunsky district municipality was adopted, which was endowed with the status municipal district with the administrative center in the village of Chunsky.

The basis for the development of the region has always been the logging and processing of wood. The first-born of logging enterprises, the Chunsky LZK, traces its history back to September 1, 1946. In 1949, Novochunsky, Bayandaevsky and Frunzensky timber industry enterprises arose. Since 1954, the construction of the Lesogorsk LDK began. In 1948-2000, the Novochunsky Kirzavod functioned, the products of which were supplied to other regions Irkutsk region(Bratsk, Ust-Ilimsk, Zheleznogorsk).

In the early 30s, collective farms arose in the region; they were in all large villages and hamlets with a long history - Balturino, Vydrino, Chervyanka, Gankino, Takhtamai, Zakharovka, Mironovka, Nevanka, Novochunka village (Kamenka, Chunskaya village ) etc. In 1969, two state farms were formed on the basis of collective farms - “Chunsky” and “Oktyabrsky”. In 1955-1985, wastelands were actively developed, swamps were drained, small forests were cut down for arable land... In total, 14,665 hectares of arable land, 4,192 hectares of hayfields, 4,238 hectares of pastures were assigned to state farms, over 13 thousand hectares were sown annually (8,000 hectares were occupied by grain crops) ).

In connection with the consolidation of the districts of the region, the Chunsky district was liquidated from January 1, 1963: five rural councils went to the Bratsk district, and the village councils of the workers' villages of Lesogorsk, Oktyabrsky, Chunsky and four village councils - to the Taishetsky district (the Shitkinsky district was included in 1960 part of the Taishet region).

By decree of the Presidium of the Supreme Soviet of the RSFSR dated August 6, 1964, the Chunsky district was formed as part of the river. Oktyabrsky village ( administrative center), Lesogorsk, Chunsky and rural councils: Baersky, Novochunsky, Tareysky, Targizsky. By decree of the PVS of the RSFSR dated January 12, 1965, the center of the district was moved to the river. Chunsky village (the region included three settlement and nine rural Soviets). At the XXIII Congress of the CPSU (04/8/1966), a decision was made to create the Chunsky timber processing plant, which served as a powerful impetus for industrial and housing construction in the village Chunsky. From 1966 to 1986, the LZK team was headed by P. G. Tverdokhleb, a talented leader who made a lot of efforts to transform Chuna barracks into a modern comfortable village with developed infrastructure.

Improved living conditions helped workers increase labor productivity, exceeding socialist obligations. The district's labor collectives have repeatedly received challenge Red Banners from the Ministry of Forestry and Woodworking Industry, the regional committee and the CPSU Central Committee. Hundreds of leading production workers were awarded high government awards, and two - V. N. Baranov (1966) and V. I. Ryzhkov (1986) were awarded the title of Hero Socialist Labor.

The indigenous population of the region were Evenks (Tungus), but in the second half of the 17th century, the development of Eastern Siberia by Russian explorers began. The Bratsky (1631) and Nizhneudinsky forts (1648), and the village of Shitkino (1726) were founded here.

There is no exact data on the founding of these villages, but the high number of residents suggests that these settlements are old-timers.

For many decades, the remote junction of the Yenisei and Irkutsk provinces served as an ideal place for the exile of “dissidents.” However, significant changes in the national composition of the population occurred only in post-war years, when the Balts, Moldovans, Western Ukrainians, etc. were evicted from the western regions of the USSR to develop the forest resources of the Chunsky taiga.
