History
The history of the settlement begins in 1979, when the commander-in-chief of the rocket forces, at that time, General of the Army, and then Chief Marshal of Artillery, Vladimir Fedorovich Tolubko, decided to deploy a military facility near Tsaplino station. Construction began in 1980; the first inhabitants lived in trailers and tents. In 1982, work was carried out on the construction of residential buildings, as well as barracks and special structures, in order for the first missile regiment to be put on duty in a timely fashion. On November 3, 1982, the first house was built for the officers of the first regiment at Victory Street, 6.
Within the framework of administrative divisions, it is incorporated as the closed administrative-territorial formation of Sibirsky—an administrative unit with the status equal to that of the districts, created in 2005. As a municipal division, the closed administrative-territorial formation of Sibirsky is incorporated as Sibirsky Urban Okrug. The urban designation has only been given because it is the federal law requirement for municipally incorporating closed inhabited localities.
