History

Construction on a section of the Trans-Siberian Railway connecting Chita and Vladivostok began in 1898, starting at each end and meeting halfway. The project produced a large influx of new settlers and in 1911 a village was founded around the Obluchye railway station, the name of which roughly means the route passing around as the railway at this point travels through a large curve around the mountains.[citation needed]

The railway was completed in October 1916.[10]

Town status was granted to Obluchye in 1938.[citation needed]

Administrative and municipal status

Within the framework of administrative divisions, Obluchye serves as the administrative center of Obluchensky District, to which it is directly subordinated.[1] As a municipal division, the town of Obluchye, together with five rural localities in Obluchensky District, is incorporated within Obluchensky Municipal District as Obluchenskoye Urban Settlement.[3]

Economy

The gold mining company Zoloto Zutary is based in the town. Other employers include the railway workshops connected to the town's station on the Trans-Siberian Railway.
