Monino (

1989 Census).[6]

History

Monino was founded in the Muninskaya Wasteland (Russian: Мунинская пустошь) on August 23, 1792. The name "Monino" or "Munin" can be translated from the Finno-Ugric languages as "My farm".[citation needed]

It is alleged that the history of the settlement can be traced to a small farm, whose owner was a man of Monin.[citation needed] In 1926, an airfield for heavy aircraft was built, becoming the first to house a heavy bomber brigade.[citation needed] The subsequent history of the village is closely connected with aviation. The status of urban-type settlement was conferred in 1946.[citation needed]
