Kintus Yurts is a Khanty settlement
The place where now Salym village is located had been inhabited long ago. Once it was a Khanty settlement known as Kintus Yurts. Integration of collective farms (kolkhozes), a big campaign carried out in 1950-60es, brought about a migration of people from small villages to larger communities. The result was sad for many villages. Kintus was not an exception.
How Salym started up
The modern history of this place started up in 1968-70 when constructors came here to build a railway road. They were pioneers who were building the railway and the village itself. Salym (“Solhem” in Khanty language) means “created”. It is noteworthy that the name of the first street is Stroitelnaya (“constructional”).
Location
The Salym village is located on the main federal highway Tyumen - Nefteyugansk. There is also a railroad station whereby one can get to Tyumen and further west to the Urals and European part of Russia. In eastern and northern directions the railroad goes as far as Novy Urengoi and Nizhnevartovsk.
Life in the village
The village is inhabited by about five and a half thousand people. Most local residents live in timber houses built several decades ago. However the housing capacities have gradually been improving. The multi-storey apartment blocks have already been built or are under construction as well as new timber houses. Recently a new landmark has appeared in Salym - the Saint Peter and Paul Orthodox Church.
SPD in Salym
SPD does its best to contribute to the social development of the region. In particular, SPD donated surgical and other medical equipment to Salym hospital and computers to local schools. This year SPD launches a project of great social value in Salym — construction of a kindergarten for 210 children.
