The lands taken by Novocheboksarsk have a long history. In this area archeologists found two sites of ancient settlements of the Stone Age.

Novocheboksarsk was founded in 1960 due to the building of a chemical industrial complex there.

In due course, Novocheboksarsk expanded and included small nearby villages. The settlement grew up and developed so fast that already in 1965 it gained the status of a town.

The principal employer and mainstay of the entire town is the Khimprom joint-stock company. Since 1986 year the Cheboksary Hydrostation built on Volga River not far from the town has produced cheap electric power for the Chuvash Republic and the neighboring regions. The industrial potential Novocheboksarsk includes 219 enterprises, with 18 core ones.

The main and historically first highway of the town is the Vorontsova Street. The architecture of this street is magnificent and unique; the monument to I.S.Semenov – an ardent fighter for establishment of the Soviet power in the Chuvash Republic – was fitted into the overall picture of the highway in 1985.
