Chaplygin, Administrative center in Lipetsk Oblast, Russia

Located at the confluence of the Stanovaya Ryasa and Yagodnaya Ryasa Rivers, Chaplygin extends across an area at 140 meters above sea level.

Originally established as Ust Stanovykh Ryas in 1638, the settlement received a fortress named Oranienburg in 1702 under Peter the Great's directive.

The town changed its name in 1948 to honor Sergey Chaplygin, a Russian physicist who was born in this location in 1869.

The population of 11,579 residents maintains connections through postal codes 399900, 399902, 399903, and 399959, while the food industry drives the local economy.

Alexander Menshikov, after receiving control of both the fortress and Slobodskoye village in 1712, constructed a monastery in the area.
