Historical reference
The city arose by merging the regional center of Sorokino with the Zarinskaya railway station.
- The village of Sorokino on the banks of the river. Chumysh has been mentioned in historical sources since 1748. According to legend, it was founded by a wanderer nicknamed Soroka. Since the 18th century By decree of Elizaveta Petrovna, the peasants of the village were assigned to the Demidov copper smelters in Barnaul as seasonal labor.
- In 1920, not far from the regional center of Sorokino, the “Dawn of Communism” commune was formed. Soon the communards were shot with fists, but the memory of the commune was preserved by the name of the future city - Zarinsk.
- In 1953, the Altai-Kuzbass railway line was built near the village of Sorokino, and the Zarinskaya station with a workers’ settlement appeared.
- 1968-1981 – the plan for the construction of the Altai Coke and Chemical Plant, which gave rise to the city of Zarinsk, is being implemented.
- In 2000, the coat of arms of the “city at dawn” appeared: against the background of a blue sky, a golden lark soars above the rays of the rising sun - the symbolism reflects the aspiration of the residents to the future.
Barnaul
From a stone oven to a glass mug
The coat of arms of Barnaul has the shape of a shield. On a blue background, among silver rocks on green grass, there is a smoking red blast furnace with a golden fire inside, signifying melting. Above the stove there is a white galloping horse - a symbol of the main transport force, which means moving forward and overcoming obstacles.
A story that failed...
The Barnaul silver smelter operated until 1893 - and was closed due to a decrease in smelting volumes and the cost of metal. Later, a sawmill was located on its premises, and in 1942, a match factory evacuated from the Gomel region was opened, which was declared bankrupt in February 1998.

The last match was released there in 2001. Today, the monument of urban planning and architecture, despite attempts at restoration and renovation, is in a deplorable state.
At the same time, in recent years, Barnaul, having lost its powerful old industry, has experienced a real boom in the construction of shopping centers. Today their total area has probably already exceeded a million square meters, which is reflected in short parables: “Soon we will live in shopping centers.” Another feature of today’s Barnaul is the abundance of beer stores, where revenue reaches “industrial” proportions.
As for the white horse, it also ceased to be a symbol of the main transport force.

In the lower part there is an elevator, to which the sown fields approach in golden rays. The coat of arms was developed in Soviet times, it was made in the spirit of the era of industrialization.
A story that failed...
Aleysk was founded in 1913 on the site of the village of Maloponyushevo, which arose back in 1834, and at first it was a station village on the West Siberian Railway. Gradually, the station grew into a developed city with a large cargo-passenger hub, which contributed to the development of enterprises in the processing and food industries. Already in 1926, a mechanized butter factory was launched, which used steam engines and other innovations. The Aleysky sugar factory appeared in 1931, it was mothballed in 2007, and now there is silence there. And in 1932 they built a milling plant, where they built an elevator and a grain dryer with warehouses.

Biysk
A new stronghold of science around an old fortress
The coat of arms of Biysk has the shape of a shield and is divided into two equal parts horizontally. In the upper part, on a green background, there is a white horse galloping to the left. At the bottom on a blue background is a mountain mine on a golden mountain.
A story that failed...
The coat of arms of Biysk was granted by a personal decree of Emperor Alexander I in 1804. The image of the mine appeared only because at that time it was a district town belonging to the Altai Mining District (Imperial Chancellery of the Kolyvan-Voskresensk Mining Plants). In fact, the mines were not developed here on a large scale. And the presence of the horse is explained by the fact that the district was formally part of the Tomsk province, so the white horse on a green background is a reference to the coat of arms of the provincial city of Tomsk (vicerious).
Naturally, Biysk has long needed its own coat of arms, which would not collect alien elements, but would become native - from the point of view of the history of the city, which was a fortress, then became a city, then a village, then again a city, then again a village, and then back to the city.

Yarovoe
Through the thorns of bankruptcy to the stars of show business
Yarovoy's coat of arms is a shield. On it, in a green field, a ball is depicted, crossed with gold and azure, burdened with wavy silver belts, rays emerge from the ball.
A story that failed...
Yarovoye became a city in 1993, although the point of its foundation can be considered the emergence of a village of chemists (the bromine plant was evacuated here from Perekop in 1943, which later became the Slavgorod Chemical Plant). Initially, the village was subordinate to Slavgorod, now it is a city of regional subordination.
The city-forming enterprise was the plant, renamed Altaikhimprom, which produced paints and varnishes, decontamination agents, anesthetics and household chemicals. But this enterprise went through the stage of bankruptcy, and Altai Chemical Industry was created on its basis. Today Yarovoye is primarily a resort town.

Economy of Zarinsk

- "Metallurg-Cemremont"
- Reinforced concrete products plant,
- OJSC "Rost" produces reinforced concrete structures and materials for road construction.
The food industry is represented by the Kholod dairy processing plant and an elevator. Zarinsk is a single-industry town with single-profile economic development; there is a tendency for the standard of living to decline. Environmental problems are acute. At the regional and regional levels, a search is underway for ways to solve these problems.
Rubtsovsk
The tractor ran over it twice and scattered the pasta.
The coat of arms of Rubtsovsk has the shape of a shield, in the middle of which, against the background of a solar circle, is a part of a gear, symbolizing the engineering profile. Inside the solar circle there is a scroll on which the founding year is marked. The blue ribbon dividing the shield diagonally symbolizes the water artery - the Alei River. In the upper left part, against the background of a blue sky, there is a falcon soaring over a wheat field on which a tractor is located - the brainchild of the Altai Tractor Plant.
A story that failed...
The Altai Tractor Plant appeared in 1941, when a decision was made to hastily evacuate equipment from the Kharkov Tractor Plant and the Odessa Agricultural Engineering Plant to Rubtsovsk. And the company actually began to “die” in 2007: a slow bankruptcy, which led to reorganization, and then to bankruptcy. The property was divided for a long time, the plant remained idle and was sold in parts as building material until it turned into a ruined wasteland.
Now some of the largest enterprises in the city are a timber processing plant, an agro-industrial plant producing flour, pasta, cereals and more, and a dairy plant owned by the transnational corporation PepsiCo.

Rubtsovsk is also known for its four large correctional colonies. And a few kilometers from the city there is an abandoned airport, plans for the resurrection of which have been discussed for many years.
New coat of arms

Slavgorod
They evacuated so the children could take it apart.
The coat of arms of Slavgorod is a shield on which, as a symbol of glory, a laurel branch with leaves of variable colors is depicted; the seeds on the branch are golden in a green field, and red in a golden field.
A story that failed...
Slavgorod was founded in 1910 and received city status in 1914. Officially, the founder is considered to be the great Russian reformer Pyotr Stolypin, who, while making an inspection trip along the Trans-Siberian Railway, visited the settlement and said: “There will be a glorious city here.” Over the course of several years, railway workshops, an iron foundry, and enterprises for processing agricultural products were created in Slavgorod.
At the beginning of the war, a forging and pressing equipment plant was evacuated here from Serpukhov, which was liquidated in 2017. A brewery had been operating since 1918, but it was also liquidated. The history of the radio equipment plant also began in 1918, and it is a little more optimistic. After the war, a dairy and canning plant and a furniture factory were launched in the city, as well as a meat processing plant and a clothing factory, which also died out for a long time.

On one side of the laurel branch there is a black and white TV and a skein of thread, and on the other there is a mug of milk and a sofa as a symbol of hope for a bright future.
Miner
Lead was melted to a bankrupt and unprofitable state
The city does not have an official coat of arms, but sometimes they use an image that previously symbolized the Loktevsky district. The picture shows the Altai mining and processing plant.
A story that failed...
Gornyak became a city in 1969, although its history began with the Zolotushinsky polymetallic mine opened in 1751, near which a miners’ settlement appeared in 1942. The basis of the city's economy was the extraction and processing of polymetallic ores, and the largest enterprise was the mining and processing plant, which also produced copper, zinc, lead, tin and aluminum.
in the mid-90s it was declared unprofitable and went bankrupt. In addition, the mine, which occupied one of the first places in the USSR in terms of labor productivity, was flooded. A similar fate befell almost all representatives of the old large industry in the city - they were either liquidated or on the brink. Although the resource potential of the territory is diverse.
