It was created on 16 March 1936 out of the Kirovskyi and Fabrychno-Chechelivskyi districts.[1] In 1973, a portion of its territory was annexed to the newly created Babushkinskyi District. Before 26 November 2015 it was named Zhovtnevyi; on that day the district was renamed to comply with decommunization laws.[4]
