History

The settlement of Ust Stanovykh Ryas (Усть Становы́х Ряс) was founded on the territory of modern Chaplygin in the first half of the 17th century. It later grew into the village (selo) of Slobodskoye (Слободско́е). In 1695, Peter the Great built a small wooden palace in the vicinity, and in 1702 a small fortress under the name of Oraniyenburg (Ораниенбу́рг). The name, originally taken from that of the German town Oranienburg, was modified to Raninburg and later to Ranenburg (Раненбу́рг). Also in 1702, both the fortress and the village of Slobodskoye were granted to Alexander Menshikov, who built a small monastery here in 1712.

Town status was granted to Ranenburg in 1778. In 1948, it was renamed Chaplygin after the Russian physicist Sergey Chaplygin, who was born here in 1869.
