Kalach-na-Donu, Administrative center on Don River, Russia
Located 72 kilometers west of Volgograd, Kalach-na-Donu sits at an elevation of 40 meters above sea level along the Don River banks.
Founded in 1708 as a Cossack sloboda, the settlement gained prominence with the construction of the Volga-Don Railway in 1862.
