The city of Kursk is an ancient Russian town. According to recent excavations, the Kursk fortress of the principality of Kiev was founded around 982-984, and was located in the area of the Red Square of the present city. Since the end of the 11th century, the fortress of Kursk was one of the most powerful outposts on the border of Kievan Rus. Town status was granted to Kursk in 1779.After a fire in 1781 devastated Kursk, a new plan for the city was developed in which a market centre would be at the heart of the city .
In 1778 both the Sergiev Cathedral Kazan Cathedral Baroque and Trinity Sergius Cathedral were completed. The city opened its first school for the nobility in 1783. A men's gymnasium was opened in 1808 and a seminary in 1817. A women's gymnasium was opened in 1870.
t the beginning of the 20th century Kursk played a dominant role in the food industry (Kvilitsu AK, one of the largest breweries in Russia, operated in Kursk) .
On November 19, 1919, the Red Army took Kursk. The Soviet government valued Kursk for rich deposits of iron ore and developed it into one of the major railroad hubs in the Russian southwest.
DuringThe Great Patriotic War, Kursk was occupied by the Nazis between November 4, 1941 and February 8, 1943. - the city centre was all but destroyed... Kursk is best known for the Battle of Prokhorovka – between Soviet and German forces, which is widely considered to have been one of the largest tank battles in history.....
Rebuilding efforts in the city began in February 1944......
