History

The district was first established in July 1928 by merging Chernoyarskaya Volost and a part of Kamennoyarskaya Volost of Stalingrad Governorate with three rural localities in Yenotayevsky District.[2] In 1931, the district was transferred to Lower Volga Krai but was moved back to Astrakhan Oblast in October 1947.[2] In December 1962, the district was dissolved and merged into Yenotayevsky District.[2] On March 2, 1964, the district was re-established.[2]
