The name comes from the Karelian chuppu - “corner, dead end”.
The old Pomeranian Chupinsky parish was first mentioned in 1574 in the writings of the Solovetsky Monastery ; then there were 7 courtyards with a population of 10 people.
From the 17th century Chupa became the center of the Russian mica industry . In 1922 industrial mining of feldspar , quartz , and pegmatite began . Since 1968, there was a grinding and processing plant, [3] since 1973, the mining and processing plant "Karelslyuda" of the USSR Ministry of Building Materials, since 1999 - the Chupinsky mining and processing plant. In the 1970-1980s, the company had 2500 employees and was the largest supplier of muscovite mica in the USSR.
In 1935, the tenth anniversary of the Karelian-Finnish Autonomous Soviet Socialist Republic was celebrated, and the official report stated: Loukhsky district, Chupa is a red corner, a representative hostel is organized, in Chupa-quay - the House of Socialist Culture is completed. ” In December 1938, the Miner's House of Culture was opened in the village [4] .

On November 18, 2006, on the live television air, at that time the Head of the Republic of Karelia , Sergey Katanandov, declared the village economically unpromising and advised residents to leave their homes. In response, the villagers threatened to leave the city settlement from the Republic of Karelia and join it to the Murmansk region [6] [7] .
