History

The first Russian presence was as part of a string of security posts along the Ishim River in the 1600s, as a defense against Siberian Tatars. The settlement of Abatskoye is believed to have been formed in 1695. By 1710, the population in 9 villages was reported as 177 households (473 male, 402 female individuals). Incoming settlers from central Russia were attracted to the farmland, and with involuntary conscripts added the population grew. By the 1800s, Abatskoye had become a significant crossroads market town.

The district was formally created November 12, 1923 as part of the Ishim district of the Ural region. On January 1,1932, the District abolished, and became part of Maslyansky District. On January 25,1935, the District was formed again as part of Omsk Oblast, and on August 14, 1944 by decree of the USSR Supreme Soviet Presidium, Abatsky District was included in Tyumen Oblast
