History

On the site of today's Noginsk, there was originally the village of Rogozh (Old Russian: Rogozh), which was first mentioned in the second spiritual charter of Ivan Kalita (1339): the Grand Duke bequeathed it to his second wife Ulyana “with smaller children.”

The next mention of the settlement is contained in the spiritual charter of Ivan III (1504), who handed Rogozh to his son Vasily III. In 1506, Vasily III allocated church land and the neighboring village of Mishinskaya (Chernaya) to the Church of St. Nicholas the Wonderworker, located on the territory of the village. In 1540, the act of transferring the land was additionally confirmed by Ivan IV, who also included the settlement in the Rogozhskaya Yamskaya Sloboda. Scribe books dating back to the reign of Mikhail Fedorovich call the village Rogozha (Rogozhami) and Old Rogozhsky Yam and provide the following information: “Yes, in the village of Rogozha there are 38 households of hunters of the Moscow Yamskaya Sloboda, and in them there are 92 old retired coachmen with their children, and the Yamskaya gondola is driven in Moscow by the Rogozhsky coachmen together.” By 1646, the number of coachman's households increased to 44; In addition to them, the sources list “6 Bobyl households.”

On October 5 (16), 1781, Catherine II signed a personal decree ordering the Yamskoye village of Rogozha to be renamed to the city of Bogorodsk, which became the center of Bogorodsky district. On January 16 (27), 1784, a commission under the Senate approved the plan of Bogorodsk, developed by the architect Ivan Leim. The city on the plan looked like a rectangle, covered with an earthen rampart on three sides, and had the Klyazma River as its northern border. According to data for 1788, in the city there were: “The Church of the Epiphany with the chapel of St. Nicholas the Wonderworker, public places, a city school, a wine and salt barn - all wooden; houses: 2 noble houses, 5 clergy and clergy houses, 5 common houses, 28 merchant houses, 9 town houses, 7 Yam houses, 1 brewery and 1 forge; inhabitants: 306 males, 255 females.”

In 1812, the Patriotic War began. On September 2, Napoleon entered Moscow. A week later, the chief of staff of the French army, Berthier, proposed to the emperor a plan for dispersing troops throughout the districts of the Moscow province. According to this plan, the 3rd Corps of Marshal Ney was sent to Bogorodsky district. Peasant detachments attacked French foragers. The detachments of the peasant Gerasim Kurin and the Vokhnovsky head Yegor Stulov, the centurion Ivan Chushkin and the Amerevsky head Emelyan Vasilyev not only defended the lands of the district, but also bravely fought with the enemy. On October 1 (13), 1812, the peasant cavalry forced the French cavalry to retreat.

On September 22 (October 4, New Style), 1812, with the approach of the main forces of Marshal Ney, the city of Bogorodsk was occupied by the French in battle. After October 6 (18 Art.), after Napoleon left Moscow, Bogorodsk and the district were finally liberated from the enemy.

At the beginning of the 19th century, the development of factory textile production began in Bogorodsk. In 1825, Anisim Elagin moved his silk weaving industry from the village of Gavrilovo to the city of Bogorodsk, building the first silk weaving factory there. In 1847, a large textile enterprise was built - the Bogorodsko-Glukhovskaya manufactory (until 1990 - the Glukhovskaya cotton mill). In addition, Bogorodsk was one of the significant centers of the Old Believers near Moscow.

In 1873, the trading house “Anisim Elagin with his sons” was founded. Subsequently, Shalaev, Shibaev, Brunov, Zotov, Pamfilov, Sopov, Chetverikov, Runov and other merchants opened their factories. Bogorodsk and Bogorodsky district became a major center of textile production in the Moscow province.

In terms of population, Bogorodsky district was the most populous in the Moscow province. At the end of the 19th century, there were about 212,000 people (not taking into account the population of Bogorodsk). There were 478 factories, factories, and commercial and industrial establishments in the county. The area of the county was 3068.4 square meters. versts 97% of the county's residents were employed in industry or crafts.

In 1917, under the Provisional Government, power in the county was personified by the county commissar S.I. Chetverikov, the dual power in the county was quite definite, and at that time various revolutionary military councils, working committees, Soviets, and cells of the Russian Communist Party of Bolsheviks were already functioning. After October, actual power was concentrated in the hands of the district committee of the RCP. Formally, the state in the district was represented by the Soviets. For some time, power in the district belonged to the Bogorodsk Regional Council of Workers' and Soldiers' Deputies, from January to March 1918 - to the District Council of Workers', Peasants' and Soldiers' Deputies, from April 1918 to September 1929 - to the District Council of Workers', Peasants' and Red Army Deputies, and in the period between Congresses of Soviets - to the Executive Committee.

In May 1917, after the February Revolution, the first chairman of the Council of Workers' and Peasants' Deputies, Nikolai Vasilyevich Pogodin, appeared in Bogorodsk, and he also headed the city. In October 1917, power in Bogorodsk passed completely into the hands of the Soviet without bloodshed.

In 1929, Bogorodsk became the center of the Bogorodsky district, and a year later it was renamed Noginsk - in memory of the party and statesman Viktor Pavlovich Nogin, who began his career in 1893 at the Bogorodsko-Glukhovskaya manufactory.

On January 26, 1930, the newspapers Izvestia and Rabochaya Moskva published a resolution of the All-Russian Central Executive Committee “... to rename the city of Bogorodsk and the Bogorodsk station of the Moscow-Nizhny Novgorod railway to the city and station of Noginsk, and the Bogorodsky district to Noginsky” in honor of the Bolshevik figure Viktor Nogin (1878— 1924) (approved by law on March 6, 1930).

From 1929 to 1937, 8 enterprises opened in Noginsk. Among them: a gramophone record plant, which in 1947 began producing fuel pumps (now the Noginsk Fuel Equipment Plant, NZTA), Kardolenta (now the Rubber Products Plant, RTI), a hosiery factory (now LLC Trade and Production Enterprise "Azhur"), New comb factory (combing and spinning production was discontinued in 2003), bakery (now JSC Noginsk Bread Factory).

In June 2000, the Council of Deputies of the Noginsk District made a unanimous decision “to rename Noginsk and return the city to its original name - Bogorodsk.” However, this decision was later postponed indefinitely. In January 2010, the Council of Deputies of the municipal formation “Urban Settlement of Noginsk, Moscow Region” decided to instruct the administration of the urban settlement to prepare the necessary documents to return the historical name (renaming) of the city of Noginsk to the city of Bogorodsk for sending to the Moscow Regional Duma, this decision was signed by the head of the municipal education. Later, based on the decision of the Council of Deputies of the Noginsk Municipal District dated April 6, 2010, in the Noginsk District from April 20 to April 29, 2010, a survey of district citizens was conducted on the issue “On returning the Noginsk Municipal District to its historical name - Bogorodsk.” The majority of respondents answered negatively to this question. In addition, in accordance with paragraph 12 of the Decree of the Government of the Russian Federation of December 23, 2009 No. 1074 “On the organization of the All-Russian Population Census of 2010”, executive authorities of the constituent entities of the Russian Federation and local governments are recommended not to carry out transformations of administrative-territorial and municipalities, renaming of geographical objects. In this regard, work to return the Noginsk region to its historical name was suspended. In 2012, the process of returning the historical name was resumed.

On July 5, a similar decision was made by the Council of Deputies of the city of Noginsk.
