1 Memorial of the Ostrogozh-Rossoshan operation (in front of the
station).
2 Alexander Nevsky Church, Oktyabrskaya Square. A separate
bell tower in the classicism style. It was built in the second half of
the 19th century for the Holy Cross Cathedral located on the square. The
temple was blown up during Soviet times, but for some reason the bell
tower was not touched.
3 Church of Elijah the Prophet, Oktyabrskaya
Sq. A five-domed temple built in the early 2000s. Something Byzantine
can be seen in the narrow and high side drums, but in general the style
of the temple cannot be called anything other than experimental. To be
honest, the experiment was not very successful, but this building does
not cause lasting disgust either. edit

The name comes from the Old Slavonic “rossosh” - rassokha, fork of
the river. The city is located in a place where the Chernaya Kalitva
River receives an influx, and when moving upstream, it creates the
impression of a bifurcation of the riverbed, the formation of a dry
land.
It is located on the left bank of the Chernaya Kalitva
River (the Don River basin) at the confluence of the Sukhaya Rossosh
River. The large junction railway station Rossosh of the South-Eastern
Railway is located 214 km south of Voronezh on the Voronezh-Rostov line,
with a branch to the Olkhovatka station.
The climate is temperate continental with moderately cold winters and
hot summers.
Average annual air temperature - 7.0 °C
Relative air
humidity - 66.9%
Average wind speed - 3.9 m/s
Thanks to the untouched forests in the vicinity of the city, you can still see animals such as wild boar and roe deer. Among the large birds you can see storks and hawks. In the city itself, pigeons, swallows and swifts are common.
The first official mention of the Rossosh settlement dates back to
1721 in the church register.
In the 18th century it belonged to
the Tevyashovs, then the Chertkovs.
In 1871, 5 versts from
Rossosh, the Mikhailovka railway station (since 1904 Evstratovka) was
built, and in 1926 it was renamed Rossosh station. The commercial
importance of Rossosh is growing sharply: new shops, shops, warehouses
for grain and other products appear. At the end of the 19th century,
about 700 thousand pounds of grain passed through the station annually.
City status was assigned during the administrative-territorial
reform of the RSFSR in 1923.
From 1923 to 1928 Rossosh became the
center of the formed Rossoshansky district. From 1928 to 1930 - the
center of the Rossoshansky district of the Central Black Earth Region.
Formed in 1928, the Rossoshansky district was included in the formed
Voronezh region in 1934.
During the Great Patriotic War, the
Italian Alpine Corps and the 24th German Tank Corps were supplied
through the Rossosh station. Here were also the headquarters and part of
the reserves of the Alpine Corps, whose divisions occupied the defense
on the right bank of the Don: from Novaya Kalitva to Upper Karabut. The
loss of Rossoshi for the enemy meant the collapse of the right flank of
the group of German, Hungarian and Italian troops, numbering more than
250 thousand soldiers and officers. The battles for the station and the
city were of strategic importance; in January 1943 they were liberated
by Soviet troops as a result of the Ostrogozh-Rossoshan operation.
In 1954, the urban-type settlement of Evstratovsky was incorporated
into the city.
