Babushkin (Russian: Ба́бушкин), known as Mysovsk (Мысовск) before 1941, is a town in Kabansky District of the Republic of Buryatia, Russia, located on the southern shore of Lake Baikal on the Trans-Siberian Railway. Population: 4,831 (2010 Census);[3] 4,953 (2002 Census);[7] 7,298 (1989 Census);[8] 9,000 (1967).

History

It was founded in 1892 as a postal station Mysovaya (Мысовая),[5] its name derived from the Russian word Mys meaning "cape", referring to its location on the shores of Lake Baikal.

A few years later it was chosen as the eastern terminus for the train ferry across Lake Baikal, which was used as part of the Trans-Siberian Railway until the rail line around the southern shore was completed in 1905. It was granted town status under the name Mysovsk in 1902.[citation needed]

It was renamed Babushkin in 1942,[5] in honor of the revolutionary Ivan Babushkin, arrested and executed at Mysovaya station in 1906.
