The settlement was founded in 1890.
During World War II, in 1941, the 5th Infantry Division of the Polish Anders' Army was formed and stationed in Tatishchevo.[6] Poles were housed in makeshift camps in dire conditions, mostly in tents and dugouts, and suffered from shortages of food, medicine, warm clothing and footwear.[7] Due to extreme cold, the Poles were relocated to Kyrgyzstan in early 1942.[7]
