For the first time the village of Kimra is mentioned in the charter of Ivan the Terrible in 1546 . Kimra, standing on the Volga, along the route of caravans of ships along the main trade "waterway", becomes an economically developed large village and in the 17th century became widely known as the "shoemaking capital" . @ The merchants of Kimr footwear are exporting to all the ends of the country, and thousands of shoemakers from all over the region come to frequent fairs in the village . In Peter's time, shoe production reached such a scale that Kimra became one of the main suppliers of footwear for the Russian army (by the way, the Kimry footwear "saw" battlefields and in 1812, and the Crimean War, and the wars of the 20th century). . By the beginning of the 19th century, three leather and shoe factories worked in the village, and with the appearance in 1902 of a railway linking Kimru with the capital, the production of shoes moved to a mechanical level and a shoe factory was built "Yakor" . In 1917 the village received the status of a city that became known as Kimry .
