Kleofeld, Novokubanski District, Krasnodar Krai

Volga German families moved from the Volga River Valley to the Don River Valley in search of additional farm land.

Kleofeld (also known as Cleopatrafeld) was founded in 1870s by Volga German families as evidenced by the parish register of the Lutheran Church in Taganrog.

Kleofeld, which was located near the village of Kubanskoye (Novokubansk) north of Armovir, was apparently dissolved in the early 20th Century.
