Zhukovsky District

Zhukovsky District is a municipal administrative area in northeastern Kaluga Oblast that encompasses multiple urban and rural settlements across its territory. The region includes several distinct population centers connected by local transportation networks serving the diverse communities within its boundaries.

The district was established in 1929 and underwent significant administrative changes during the Soviet period. A major shift occurred when it moved between regional authorities in the mid-twentieth century.

The district blends rural traditions with town life, where villages maintain local customs while towns show signs of modern growth.
