The district is bordered on the north and northeast by Aromashevsky District and Sorokinsky District, on the east by Abatsky District, on the south by Kazansky District, on the southwest by Berdyuzhsky District, and on the west by Golyshmanovsky District.
History
The first permanent inhabitants are believed to be cattle-herders some 4,000 years ago. Turkic tribes appeared in the 9th century, blending in the people generally referred to as Siberian Tatars. Russians appeared in the 1600s, when Tobolsk sponsored agricultural colonists to the Ishimsky area, and the military outposts to defend them from the Tatars. The black soil (chernozem) was more fertile than that around Tobolsk, and more settlers were drawn in.
Ishimsky District was officially formed in November 1923 as part of the Ural Region. After a brief move to Chelyabinsk region in 1934 and then to Omsk Oblast for 1934-1944, the district was finally transferred to Tymen Oblast in 1944.
