From History
The name comes from the factory of the Maritime Department located in it at the beginning of the 19th century , which produced rusks for the personnel of the Black Sea Fleet . The plant worked until the end of the Crimean War . Then it was closed due to a sharp limitation of the number of the Black Sea Fleet in accordance with the Paris Peace Treaty .
In the beam in the XVIII century there was the village of Ak-Yar (Akhtiar), by the name of which the Sevastopol Bay was originally called and at one time Sevastopol was called Akhtiar.
From June 20 to 28, 1942 , the defense of the Sukharnaya Balka and the arsenals located there was continued by a small garrison led by Major M.N. Fedoseev from units of the 11th German Army . On the evening of June 25, 1942 , a group of German soldiers managed to break through to the entrance to the first adit from the side of the Holland beam . In the vestibule of the adit was a Red Navy A.N. Chikarenko . Without hesitating for a minute, he blew up the adit, burying about 200 Nazi soldiers under the rubble. Monuments to A. N. Chikarenko, M. N. Fedoseev and other defenders of the arsenal were erected on the territory of the former arsenal.
