Sormovsky City District, Administrative district in Nizhny Novgorod, Russia.
Sormovsky City District spans 100 square kilometers in the northwestern section of Nizhny Novgorod, bordering the Volga River and Moskovsky City District.
The region traces its origins to 1542 as Soromovo village, later experiencing industrial growth with the establishment of Sormovo Works in 1849.
The district gained literary recognition through Maxim Gorky's novel 'The Mother', which depicted the 1902 May Day demonstration in Sormovo.
The district maintains connections through suburban trains, buses, and trams, with Varya station serving as a metro link to other parts of the city.
The district features recreational areas at former sand quarries, which now function as artificial beaches due to industrial development along the Volga shoreline.
