History

{{see also|Dalstroy}}

Nagayevo was a predecessor of the present day city of Magadan. It was founded in 1929 on the shore of Nagayev Bay of the Sea of Okhotsk as part of a plan for the establishment of an East Even Cultural Base (Восточно-Эвенская культбаза). Among the structures built, there were three residential buildings, a school, a veterinary station, a hospital, a bathhouse and a boarding school.[http://ru.wikisource.org/wiki/Акт_о_выборе_площади_для_месторасположения_Восточно-Эвенской_(Нагаевской)_культурной_базы Акт о выборе площади для месторасположения Восточно-Эвенской (Нагаевской) культурной базы (1929 г.)] {{in lang|ru}} It rapidly grew, and in 1930 it was granted urban-type settlement status. In 1931, it became the administrative center of Okhotsk-Evenk National Okrug. The East Even Cultural Base was disbanded in 1931, but the Kamchatka Joint-Stock Company (AKO) erected a building. More ships entered the harbor and the area continued developing, paving the way for modern Magadan. Some of the East Even Cultural Base buildings survived well into the 1980s.[https://web.archive.org/web/20170509075932/http://www.magadangorod.ru/engine/print.php?newsid=240 Magadan - History of the development and formation of the city]

In 1932, the Settlement of Magadan was founded just {{convert|2.5|km|mi|sp=us}} from Nagayevo, also on the coast. In 1939, they were both merged into the new Town of Magadan.
