In his travel notes, French writer Honoré de Balzac, mentioned his stop at Ninasi Horse Postal Station from the end of July to early October 1843.

The village was linked to the activities of the Decembrists in 1825. Grand Duke Michael Pavlovich was assigned to block all incoming correspondence from St. Petersburg until arrival of the Livonias ruler Konstntine´s manifest (located in Warsaw) which declared his renunciation of power.
In March. 1881 the future Tsar Alexander III received notice of the assassination of his father, Tsar Alexander II, and became Emperor of Russia.[2]
