History
It was founded in 1699 as a Cossack settlement and became a selo in 1702. In 1770, a postal road was built through Uvarovo, which connected Borisoglebsk and Kirsanov. In the second half of the 19th–early 20th century, Uvarovo became an important commercial center. In 1960, it was granted urban-type settlement status and in 1966—town status.
