Characteristics of the city of Novotroitsk, Orenburg region

Novotroitsk is a city in the Orenburg region, located in its southern part on the border with Kazakhstan. The city is an important center of ferrous metallurgy in the Urals, so the history of its origin and development is directly related to the discovery of iron deposits:

• the beginning of the 20th century - several farmsteads were formed on the site of the city - Silnov, Akkermanovsky and Beloshapochny;
• 1920s - several families of Ukrainian immigrants found the settlement of Novotroitsk;
• 1929 - discovery of unique iron ore deposits containing chromium, nickel, titanium and manganese near it;
• 1939 – start of construction of the Orsk-Khalilovsky Metallurgical Plant;
• 1945 - the united villages of Novotroitsk and Akkermanovka receive city status;
• 1955 – the first cast iron was produced at the plant.

The population of Novotroitsk has a steady downward trend and amounts to 95 thousand people. Ethnic composition of the population: Russians 90%, Tatars 3%, Kazakhs 3%, Bashkirs 2%, Ukrainians 2%.

How the “fourth district of the city of Orsk” became the city of Novotroitsk

Not everyone knows that Novotroitsk, Orsk’s closest neighbor, was for some time part of it and was an Orsk suburb. And during the Great Patriotic War, it almost became the fourth district of Orsk - in any case, the local authorities insisted on this. The archive still contains a letter written in March 1943. It’s called: “On the organization of the 4th administrative district in the city. Orsk".

A letter created in 1943 (for larger photos of all documents, see the bottom of the article in the photo gallery)

Divide and conquer: the history of the emergence of three districts in Orsk

The Orsk authorities were faced with a serious problem: the so-called “new buildings”, that is, the villages of Myasokombinat, Nikel, Kreking, Lokomotiv, CHP - formally belonged to the city, but in fact lived their own lives. There, the heads of enterprises were in charge: they built housing for their workers, brought goods to stores for them, and, after all, provided cultural leisure in the “cultural barracks”... But, of course, that’s what production workers are for: production workers always come first for them there were the needs of industry, and then people. In general, the city authorities had to control all this and keep their finger on the pulse. How to keep her? The City Executive Committee and the City Party Committee were located in the Old City, on Sovetskaya Street. Try to get from there to Nikel, on the other side of the Urals (through which, by the way, the bridge was washed away in the flood, so wait for the ferry)! At the same time, see if everything is okay at Kreking, 7 kilometers from there. And then drop by, say, into the second town of the Meat Processing Plant: there the dispossessed “special contingent” was diagnosed with typhus... All you need to do is cross the river again and drive 15 kilometers off-road. The service Emka was sent to the front, so go, dear official, on a cart...

In general, the dispersion of Orsk greatly complicated (and still complicates, of course) the work of local authorities. Those “at the top” also understood this. And therefore, on February 25, 1943, the Presidium of the Supreme Soviet of the RSFSR issued a decree:

To form three urban districts in the city of Orsk, Chkalov Region, giving them names: Voroshilovsky, Leninsky and Stalinsky.

Alexey Badaev

Chairman of the Presidium of the Supreme Soviet of the RSFSR

By the way, we found the original of this document in the Orsk branch of the state archive, here it is:

Document sent from Moscow in 1942

So, the city was divided like this. The most, let’s say, unpromising area was named after Kliment Voroshilov (the legendary Civil military leader, first marshal of the Union, former People’s Commissar of Defense, in 1942 he served as a representative of the Headquarters for the formation of troops) - the Old Town, the villages of Kirpichny, Vokzalny, Gudron, both meat-packing plant towns. In general, Voroshilovsky is the current Soviet.

The Leninsky district still exists. In 1942, the villages of Nikel, Pervomaisky, Stroiteley, Lokomotiv (unauthorized development in the area of ​​6 schools, the village was demolished in the 70s, and the place was built up with high-rise buildings), as well as the village of Oktyabrsky (it was liquidated due to an environmental disaster, we talked about this in one of the previous “old age”). A large territory, many large enterprises went to Vladimir Ilyich...

Workhouse in the village of Nikel (in 1942 - Leninsky district of Orsk)

But still less than Joseph Vissarinovich. The Stalinsky district included the territory of the Chkalovsky oil refinery (together with the village, of course), a brand new thermal power plant, OZTM (which later became YuUMZ), Sotsgorod (that is, the city of the future, New City, then almost deserted, but the most promising area) and... territory of the Orsko-Khalilovsky Metallurgical Plant under construction, that is, the entire current Novotroitsk! In general, the Father of Nations was given an extremely generous gift. True, this generosity, as they say, backfired... But more on that later.

Dividing the city into districts made it possible to better control the life of each remote village: where the city committee cannot reach, the district committee will restore order! This is how the then “head” of Orsk assessed it:

In the mountains Orsk has created 3 urban districts. The experience of industrial enterprises, construction sites and social institutions has shown that in the conditions of newly created areas, the management of industry and construction has come closer and improved, numerous issues of servicing the material and everyday needs of workers are resolved much more specifically and quickly... Practical work of industrial enterprises and construction sites, medical and school institutions, as well as public utility enterprises, has improved... The influence and impact of the party and Soviet apparatus on the nature and conditions of activity of individual enterprises and institutions has come closer.

Konstantin Milovanov

Chairman of the Executive Committee of the Orsk City Council

De facto – independent villages. De jure - suburb

And everything would be fine, but too much territory was rashly allocated to the Stalin region. The fact is that, as mentioned above, all of present-day Novotroitsk was included in it. In general, initially the tiny village of Novo-Troitsky, like the village of Akkermanovsky, belonged to the agricultural Khalilovsky district. But when the Akkerman mine was created (ore was originally mined there for the Orsk nickel plant), and they decided to build a metallurgical plant near Novo-Troitsky (which at first, in fact, they were going to build near Alimbetovka), these small villages were transferred to the Orsky district: he, Unlike Khalilovsky, he was industrial; Orsk officials had a much better understanding of complex industrial issues.

So: in 1942, both Akkermanovsky and Novo-Troitsky were assigned to the Stalinsky district of Orsk. And again the same problem arose: long distances with poor transport accessibility.

With a population of 57,000 people, the area stretches for 23 km. [The villages] Novo-Troitsky and Akkermanovsky are located from the regional center, the first at a distance of 14 km, the second - at a distance of 21 km, and essentially both of these points ceased to be villages and grew to the level of large populated areas with great economic significance.

Konstantin Milovanov

Chairman of the Executive Committee of the Orsk City Council

In general, Milovanov said, the Stalin district needs to be divided (“disaggregated” - the word of that time) into two. Let Sotsgorod, Kreking, thermal power plant, plant 322 (aka Orsky machine-building plant), bakery and others remain in Stalinsky.

And let enterprises that are located at a distance from Orsk be moved to the “fourth district”. This is the Akkermanovsky mine with a lime quarry, where “the construction of a large cement plant begins,” and OKhMK (Orsko-Khalilovsky Metallurgical Plant - later NOSTA, now Ural Steel). However, at that time OHMK was still under construction, and people worked not so much on it itself, but in OSMC-23. It was the so-called “special construction and installation unit” - one of hundreds of construction organizations created in the USSR during the Great Patriotic War for coordinated, soldier-like precise work in wartime conditions. This same OSMC then employed 9,500 people - imagine the scale of the construction! In addition to the two large objects, there were others in the two villages, smaller ones: a fireclay factory, a sewing and shoe workshop, and others.

In addition to industrial enterprises, there were also institutions in the “fourth district”. For example, a kindergarten, a nursery, an elementary school, a ten-year school and 2 FZO (factory training schools, later they were reformed into vocational schools). There was a clinic, a “somatic hospital” (that is, therapy), a surgical hospital, an infectious disease clinic, a “children’s and women’s clinic”, a maternity hospital and a children’s sanatorium. It had its own newspaper, a branch of the bank, a branch of the RKM (workers' and peasants' militia) with 12 employees, a people's court and an institution called the “6th precinct of the penitentiary colony” - a branch of the Orsk correctional labor colony: prisoners also worked hard at local construction sites.

That is, Milovanov argued, in fact, the separation of the “fourth district” had already taken place, it was only necessary to legally approve its status:

In the Novo-Troitsky and Akkermanovsky villages, due to their remoteness, a number of institutions have already been created, usually organized in the area... The Executive Committee of the Orsk City Council and the Bureau of the City Committee of the All-Union Communist Party of Bolsheviks considers it expedient and necessary to disaggregate the Stalinsky district of Orsk, forming a new administrative district on based in the villages of Novo-Troitsky and Akkermanovsky.

Konstantin Milovanov

Chairman of the Executive Committee of the Orsk City Council

This letter was sent to Chkalov - present-day Orenburg. From there he was apparently transported to Moscow. And a few months later, the request of the Orsk authorities was granted... But not completely. The remote villages were indeed brought into the district, but it turned out to be not the “fourth district” within Orsk (I wonder what it would be called: Molotovsky? or Zhdanovsky?), but a separate district of regional subordination with a center in the working-class village of Novo-Troitsk. And on April 13, 1945, just before the end of the war, the Presidium of the Supreme Soviet of the RSFSR awarded it the status of a city, removing the hyphen from the name. So the Novo-Troitsky suburb of Orsk became the independent city of Novotroitsk.

The largest share in the volume of shipped products by type of activity “Production” fell on the organization of the metallurgical complex. - 75.3%, in second place is recycling and scrap. - 12.7%, in third - food production, including drinks - 3.8%.

The main enterprise is the metallurgical plant OJSC Ural Steel.

The development of the city and its infrastructure is still determined by the state enterprise Ural Steel, which accounts for almost 90% of all industrial production. The plant is one of the eight largest metallurgical companies in Russia, and ranks 23rd in the ranking of 200 subsidiaries in terms of sales volume. Its product list is very extensive; This is the only enterprise in the world that produces iron ore alloy chromium-nickel alloy with natural casting at its own mines.

Historical sketch

It arose as a settlement of peasant migrants from Ukraine at the beginning of the 20th century, called Novotroitsk. There were other small farms nearby: Silnov, Akkermanovsky, Khabarny.

In the fall of 1929, geologist I.L. Rudnitsky discovered the Khalilovskoe deposit of brown iron ore, which was distinguished by a rare composition - it contained chromium, nickel, titanium, and manganese. In June 1931, a decision was made to begin construction of a large metallurgical plant based on Khalilov ores and Karaganda coals. But it was only in 1933 that the design specifications for the construction of the plant were developed. However, in 1935, construction was frozen, apparently due to a lack of funds and labor - the country was building several more large metallurgical plants.

In the spring of 1939, a decree was signed to begin construction of the metallurgical plant. In the summer of 1939, it was decided “to accept the selected Novotroitsk site for the construction of the Khalilovsky Metallurgical Plant...”.

In 1938, the Akkermanovsky mine came into operation.

In the summer of 1942, construction of the first workshops of the metallurgical plant began, and several two-story residential buildings were commissioned.

The city of Novotroitsk since April 13, 1945, was formed by the merger of the working settlements of Novotroitsk and Akkermanovka (PGT since 1938, 2.6 thousand inhabitants, 1939). The name was inherited from the village of Novotroitskaya, which it absorbed, founded by settlers to the Southern Urals from the Russian village of Troitskoye. The population of the city in 1945 reached 17 thousand people.
