Friedrichsfeld, Stavropol Krai (North Caucasus)

Friedrichsfeld was founded in 1885 by ethnic German colonists relocating from the Kherson Province. They were later joined by Volga German colonists relocating from both the Saratov and Samara Provinces.

The colonists bought 4,000 desyatins on the right bank of the Big Kugulta [Бол. Кугульта] River about 70 kilometers northeast of Stavropol from Fyodor Zolotarev after whom the village took its Russian name of Zolotarevka.

In 1941, all of the German inhabitants were deported to Asiatic Russia.
