History

 
Dolmen in the vicinity of Solohaul

Various settlements in the territory of the modern village have existed since ancient times. In particular, in the vicinity of the village, ancient megalithic structures - dolmens are still preserved.

During the Caucasian War, there were many Circassian villages along the Shakh River Valley, which continuously stretched almost to its upper reaches. After the war ended, the Shah River Valley was empty for a couple of decades.

The modern settlement was founded in 1887 by immigrants from the central provinces of the Russian Empire and was originally called Pokrovsky.

In 1901, a native of Ukraine, breeder Judah Koshman, in the vicinity of the village laid the first tea plantations, which for a long time were considered the most northern in the world. Today the local variety of tea is known as Krasnodar .

In 1912, the village of Pokrovsky was transformed into the village of Pokrovskoye [4] , and in 1921 the village received its modern name - Solokhaul.

From December 26, 1962 to January 12, 1965, Solokhaul was listed as part of the Tuapse rural area .

In 1965, the village was transferred to the Soloch-Aul rural district of the Lazarevsky district of the resort city of Sochi .
