History
It was founded in 1907 as a settlement of Torgun (Торгунь) servicing the construction of a railway station of the same name. That same year, Torgun was renamed Pallasovka in honor of an academician Peter Pallas (1741–1811), who visited the area in 1773–1774. It was granted town status in 1967.
