Aleksin, Historic city in Tula Oblast, Russia

Located 71 kilometers northwest of Tula, Aleksin extends across both banks of the Oka River, connected by a bridge at 160 meters elevation.

First mentioned in the Nikon Chronicle of 1348, Aleksin faced destruction during Khan Akhmat's invasion of the Grand Duchy of Moscow in 1472.

The administrative center of Aleksinsky District maintains connections with international communities through partnerships with cities in Ukraine, Belarus, and Montenegro.

The city hosts a chemical plant complex and industrial facilities, providing employment opportunities while serving as a regional transportation hub.

German forces occupied Aleksin for 19 days in 1941, from November 29 to December 17, during their advance toward Moscow.
