History

Barabash was founded in 1884, named after Yakov Barabash, who was then chairman of a commission on the delineation of the Russo-Chinese border. In 1937, Barabashky District was created with its center in the village, but on 7 May 1947 was replaced by Khasansky District when the district center moved to Khasan.[1]

From 1955 until 2012,[5] Barabash was the location of the headquarters of the 17th Guards Rifle Division and its successor formations.[6]
