Historical background

The settlement received its name by Decision No. 171 of the Troitsky District Executive Committee dated 11 May 1960; prior to that, the locality was called "4th Department of the Proletary State Poultry Breeding Sovkhoz." The Proletary sovkhoz was established in 1930. In the 1960s–1970s, mechanized farms appeared in the settlement, where milkmaids and cattle breeders of the sovkhoz worked, and grain production developed; an eight-year school operated, after which many students continued their education at the Proletarskaya secondary school. As of 2025, the settlement's population is 62. Among residents, the Zyablintsev family, who moved from Barnaul, is mentioned: the head of the family, Gennady Alekseyevich, was director of OOO "Altaiselskhozprodukt" and owned 27 hectares of hunting grounds; also, Nadezhda Pavlovna and Sergei Ivanovich Gulak settled in the settlement in 1991.
