Origin of name

The name of Lake Cholernoye is associated with the tragic events of the 19th century. According to one legend, in 1829, a cholera epidemic entered the Buzuluk district, brought by a group of settlers from different parts of Russia. This terrible disease, which had not previously been encountered in these places, claimed the lives of many residents of the county in three years. The consequences of the epidemic were terrible: many people died, remaining unburied in the steppe, which was the source of the terrible name of the lake. Cholera ended only in 1831, leaving behind traces of a terrible nightmare.

According to another legend, during the First World War, in the Buzuluksky forest, not far from the lake, there was a camp for captured Austrians and Germans. Suddenly, a cholera epidemic broke out in the camp, killing many prisoners of war. This tragic episode also left its mark on the history of the area and may have become one of the reasons for this name of the lake.
