The first mention of a settlement in the region of Lipetsk refers to the period of the wars of Russia with the Mongol-Tatars, who destroyed it at the end of the thirteenth century. Modern Lipetsk is located at the confluence of the Lipovka and Voronezh rivers, four hundred kilometers south of Moscow, at the site of the village of Malye Studenki Lipsky.
In 1703, by decree of Peter I, the construction of a metallurgical plant began here, this year is considered to be the foundation of Lipetsk. The Ironworks, built for the needs of the army and navy in a short time, became Russia's second in smelting pig iron. In 1709, the village was renamed the settlement "Lipsky Zavody", and received the official status of the county town of Lipetsk on September 16, 1779 by decree of Catherine II.
History of modern Lipetsk
After the bulk of the metallurgical production was transferred to the south of Russia, Lipsky Zavody was closed, and equipment and qualified specialists were transferred to the enterprises of Donbass. After a severe fire in 1806 and the liquidation of metallurgical plants, Lipetsk fell into some decline. The restoration of a provincial town begins according to the master plan of stone and brick, with wide streets and modern buildings. At this time, the first hotels in Lipetsk, resort buildings, mansions of wealthy merchants and nobles appeared. The active revival of the city began at the end of the nineteenth century, after the construction of the Svobodny Sokol metallurgical plant. And after the construction of the Novolipetsk Metallurgical Plant in 1934, Lipetsk became the industrial center of the Chernozem region with a half-million population.
