History
In 1717, four villages were documented on the site of the future city: Koinovo, Shipunovo, Chernodyrovo and Vylkovo.
In 1929, deposits of limestone and shale were found in this place, after which a special commission determined the site for the construction of a cement plant.
In 1933, the working settlement of Iskitim was formed, and the following year the cement plant was built.
In 1994 an area was set aside in the city cemetery for the burial of those who had suffered political repression under the Soviet regime and a commemorative cross was added there.
