Zheleznodorsk - a city (since 1962) in the north-west of the Kursk region of Russia, the administrative center of the Zheleznogorsk district (since 1965). It is not part of the district, being a city of regional importance, forming a municipal entity Zheleznogorsk city with the status of a city district.
Zheleznogorsk was founded in 1957 as a working village Oktyabrsky, in connection with the development of the Mikhailovsky iron ore deposit of the Kursk Magnetic Anomaly. A large buckwheat field, located near the village of Chernyakovo, was chosen as the site for the construction of the city. On October 2, 1957, construction of the prefabricated houses of the settlement along the current Oktyabrskaya street began. By November 7, the first two two-apartment residential buildings were commissioned. On June 24, 1958, on the basis of the appeal of builders and miners, by decision No. 290 of the Kursk Regional Council of Workers' Deputies, the village of Oktyabrsky was renamed Zheleznogorsk. On September 28, 1961, the village of Chernyakovo, the settlements of Yermolaevsky and Chernyakovsky Gorki of the Razvetievsky Village Council were included in the line of the working settlement of Zheleznogorsk. In 1962, the village was given the status of a city, at that time it was inhabited by 16.5 thousand people.

It is located in the north-west of the Kursk region, on the western
outskirts of the Central Russian Upland, 90 km north-west of Kursk, on
the border with the Oryol region, near the Mikhailovsky Rudnik railway
station on the Orel-Lgov branch. The A142 highway passes through the
city. Almost completely surrounded by the territory of the Zheleznogorsk
district of the Kursk region, with the exception of the northern part,
bordering on the Dmitrovsky district of the Oryol region.
The
rivers Pogarshchina, Rechitsa, Ryasnik and Chern, which belong to the
Svapa basin, flow through the territory of the urban district. On the
territory of the city district there are several gardening associations
and former villages that have lost the status of independent
settlements.
In 1950, an iron ore deposit was discovered on the territory of the
Mikhailovsky district of the Kursk region, confined to the Kursk
magnetic anomaly. On August 3, 1957, the Council of Ministers of the
USSR adopted a resolution on the construction of a mine in this place.
To service the quarry under construction, the construction of a working
settlement for 10 thousand inhabitants was begun. A large buckwheat
field to the west of the village of Chernyakovo was chosen as a place
for the construction of the village.
The founding date of
Zheleznogorsk is October 2, 1957 - on this day, the construction of
houses began on the current Oktyabrskaya Street. At first, the working
settlement was called Oktyabrsky. On June 24, 1958, the Oktyabrsky
settlement was renamed Zheleznogorsk.
On September 7, 1959, the
Zheleznogorsk secondary school, the future Gymnasium No. 1, was opened.
On September 28, 1961, the village of Chernyakovo, the settlements
of Ermolaevsky and Chernyakovskiye Gorki of the Rvevetevsky village
council were included in the boundaries of the working settlement of
Zheleznogorsk. On May 28, 1962, the village was given the status of a
city, at that time 16.5 thousand people lived in it. On January 12,
1965, the Zheleznogorsk district was formed with the center in the city
of Zheleznogorsk.
By 1970, more than 30 thousand people lived in
the city, there were 5 schools.
In 2008, the settlements of
Alekseevsky, Platonovsky, Khutorskoy, the villages of Trubicheno and
Panino, the village of Luzhki, which were previously part of the urban
district of Zheleznogorsk, were annexed to the city. In 2015, these
settlements received the status of microdistricts of the city.
In
2017, the population of the city exceeded 100 thousand people.
The city-forming enterprise is OJSC Mikhailovsky GOK. Forms 71% of the city budget, which employs 30% of the city's population. It is the second in Russia in terms of production of iron ore raw materials. There are 20 industrial enterprises in the city, the largest of which are: "GOTEK", CJSC "ZZHBI-3" (production of building materials), CJSC "Zheleznogorsk brick factory".
