Narimanov (Russian: Нарима́нов) is a town and the administrative center of Narimanovsky District in Astrakhan Oblast, Russia, located on the western bank of the Volga River, 40.3 kilometers (25.0 mi) northwest from Astrakhan, the administrative center of the oblast.

Sadovska (presumably part of Narimanov today) is just about four miles east of the easternmost and farthest point that German troops both occupied in the Soviet Union during World War II, and fought against Soviet troops in a battle, in September 1942. There is no monument about this historic event near Narimanov today.
