History
Known as Laishev (Лаишев) since the times of the Khanate of Kazan, it was granted town status in 1781. In 1920–1927, it served as the administrative center of a kanton. In 1926, it was demoted in status to a selo and given its present name. In 1950, it was granted urban-type settlement status. It served as the administrative center of a district in 1930–1963 and then again since 1965. Town status was granted to it again in 2004.
On 22 August 2013, four members of a family were killed by toxic fumes from some rotten potatoes stored in their basement.
