History

The locality was first documented in surviving written administrative sources in 1579, during the period of Russian eastward frontier expansion. Because of its strategic position, Nyrob rose to temporary administrative prominence during the mid-twentieth century. It functioned twice as the designated administrative capital of the former Nyrobsky District, first from 27 February 1924 until 10 June 1931, and later during a secondary reorganization between 20 October 1931 and 4 November 1959. Recognizing its transitioning economy and population density, regional authorities formally granted Nyrob urban-type settlement status in 1963.

Demographically, the settlement has experienced a notable population decline over recent decades, dropping from a population of 5,523 residents recorded during the 2010 All-Russian Population Census to an estimated 3,220 inhabitants by 2023.
