Talk:Ordzhonikidzevsky (urban-type settlement)

History: empty!

• What Cherkess village or town was there before the Russian conquest, if any?
• When and who called it Elbrussky [Grad, Zelo,...?]?

All we know is that it "was granted the urban-type settlement status in 1938", but it's unsourced.

• When was it renamed after Soviet political leader Grigoriy Ordzhonikidze, also in 38?
• Wasn't the name changed back or to something else sometime after 1991 or 2000? How come? Arminden (talk) 14:47, 19 May 2024 (UTC)
