History

On January 24, 1952, the Council of Ministers of the USSR issued decree № 342—135сс/оп to build Plant #933 for the production of atomic bombs. Konstantin Volodin headed the new plant. On April 9, 1952, first construction workers arrived to the area.

Administrative and municipal status

Within the framework of administrative divisions, it is incorporated as the Town of Tryokhgorny—an administrative unit with the status equal to that of the districts. As a municipal division, the Town of Tryokhgorny is incorporated as Tryokhgorny Urban Okrug.

Closed status

The town is closed because a plant producing parts of atomic reactors is located there.
