History
The selo of Nazarovo was founded in 1700 by Nazary Patyukov, a Cossack, and was named after him.[citation needed] In 1888, deposits of brown coal were discovered in the vicinity of the village, and in 1925 a railroad was built through it. The selo was granted urban-type settlement status in 1946 and town status in 1961.[citation needed]
