History

The city of Adygeysk is a resettlement city and has a tragic history. The chronicle of the city begins with the order of the Council of Ministers of the USSR dated June 22, 1967, 1737-r, which approved the design assignment for the construction of the Krasnodar reservoir.

The subsequent order of the Krasnodar Regional Executive Committee 743 of October 25, 1967 approved the general provision, which determined the procedure for the resettlement of the population from the basin of the reservoir. This man-made sea with a capacity of 3.1 million cubic meters was supposed to provide water to the rice systems of the Kuban and desalination fish-breeding estuaries, as well as to prevent floods from flooding the land in the lower reaches of the Kuban River.

In 1969, a new settlement was formed - the village of Adygeysk, to which residents of 13 settlements were resettled from the flood zone of the reservoir bowl - 1957 families (8145 people)

The villages of Lakshukai, Edepsukai-1, Edepsukai-2, Old and New Kazanukai, Shabanokhabl, Shahancheriekhabl, Leninokhabl, the villages of Mayak and Karmalino Kurgo and Kalinino were under the waters of the Krasnodar reservoir. The inhabitants of the villages of Tlyustenkhabl, Vochepshy, Tauikhabl, Kunchukokhabl, Neshukay, Pchegatlukay, Pshikuykhabl, Novo-Vochepshey and Gorodskoy villages were partially resettled in the new village.

On July 27, 1976, by the Decree of the Presidium of the Supreme Soviet of the RSFSR, the working settlement of Adygeysk in the Teuchezhsky district of the Adygei Autonomous Region was transformed into a city of regional subordination with a change of name to the city of Teuchezhsk - by the name of the ashug of Adygea Tsuga Teuchezha.

In April 1981, the city of Teuchezhsk became the regional center of the united (with the Oktyabrsky district) Teuchezhsky district.

On April 25, 1983, once again the Teuchezhsky district is divided into two - Oktyabrsky with the administrative center in the village of Oktyabrsky and Teuchezhsky with the regional center in the city of Teuchezhsk.

On September 26, 1990, by the Decree of the Presidium of the Supreme Council of the RSFSR, the city was returned to its historical name Adygeysk.

In 1993, by the Decree of the President of the Republic of Adygea A. A. Dzharimov, a single governing body was formed - the administration of the city of Adygeysk and the Teuchezhsky district.

Within the new boundaries, the municipal formation "City of Adygeysk" was formed in 2000 after the administrative-territorial division with the Teuchezhsky district.

In 2001, the village of Gatlukay and the farm of Psekups were included in the city limits of the city of Adygeysk.
