It was near the Muravsky Trail used by Crimeans and Nogais to raid Muscovy. In 1637 it was founded as a fort. In 1647 it became a city with the name Tsaryov-Alekseev after Tsar Alexis of Russia. In 1655 it was named Novy Oskol to distinguish it from Stary Oskol (Old Oskol) to the north.[ citation needed]
Within the framework of administrative divisions, Novy Oskol serves as the administrative center of Novooskolsky District, to which it is directly subordinated. [1] As a municipal division, the town of Novy Oskol, together with the settlement of Rudny in Novooskolsky District, is incorporated within Novooskolsky Municipal District as Novy Oskol Urban Settlement.
