Engels (), named after Friedrich Engels, is a port city on the Volga River in Saratov Oblast, Russia, located across from Saratov, the administrative center of the oblast, and since 1965 connected to it with a bridge. Population: ==History== Founded as Pokrovskaya sloboda by Ukrainian settlers in 1747, it was granted town status and renamed Pokrovsk () in 1914. During the reign of Catherine the Great, ethnic Germans moved there, making it a major center of the Volga German culture. At that time, the town was known as Kosakenstadt ("Cossacks' Town"). It became the capital of the Volga German Autonomous Soviet Socialist Republic, now a part of Saratov Oblast, in 1924, and it was renamed Engels in 1931. On August 26, 2011, a monument in honor of the Russian-German victims of repression within the Soviet Union was unveiled.
