[5] Almost all of the district belongs to the basin of the Yug and two of its main tributaries, the Kichmenga (left) and the Yontala (right).

At that time, the fortress of Kichmengsky Gorodok was dependent on Veliky Ustyug, and Tatars took it and set it to fire, together with all its population.

[4] In the course of the administrative reform carried out in 1708 by Peter the Great, the area was included into Archangelgorod Governorate.

The latter was abolished in 1796, and Kichmengsky Gorodok became the seat of Kichmengskaya Volost of Nikolsky Uyezd of Vologda Governorate.

In 1918, the area was transferred to the newly established Northern Dvina Governorate with the administrative center located in Veliky Ustyug.

[2] On June 10, 1924, Yenangsky District with the administrative center in the selo of Nizhny Yenangsk was also established.

[4] Kichmengsky Gorodok is located on the paved road which connects Kotlas and Veliky Ustyug in the north and Nikolsk and Manturovo in the south.

The district contains twenty-five objects classified as cultural and historical heritage of local importance.
