History

The predecessor of this district was first established on December 28, 1934 as an administrative division of Azov-Black Sea Krai. It was renamed Tulsky on April 10, 1936. When Azov-Black Sea Krai was divided into Krasnodar Krai and Rostov Oblast in September 1937, Tulsky District remained a part of the former. On February 21, 1940, Maykopsky District was established within Adyghe Autonomous Oblast and on April 28, 1962 Tulsky District of Krasnodar Krai was merged into it.[2]
