In modern conditions, it seems relevant to study the historical experience of industrial production restructuring based on the requirements of wartime. The purpose of the research is to characterize the main activities of the key industrial enterprises of Stalingrad at the initial stage of the Great Patriotic War and during the Battle of Stalingrad. The sources of the research were normative legal acts regulating the development of industry in wartime conditions, previously unpublished documents of the factories of Stalingrad producing military products, as well as manuscripts of the engineer of the Red October Plant P. N. Sporyshkov, stored in the fund of the museum of the Red October Plant. The structural and functional approach, the problem-chronological method allowed us to show the specifics of the work of industrial enterprises of Stalingrad in connection with the changing situation at the front. A number of conclusions were made in the course of the study. The industrial base of Stalingrad made it possible to quickly rebuild industrial production to meet the needs of the front. Enterprises made changes to the range of products, achieving significant qualitative and quantitative indicators. As the fighting approached, in the conditions of evacuation of production facilities and employees of enterprises to preserve their potential, the industry remaining in the city completely began to focus on providing the front, repairing military equipment, continuing to work during the Battle of Stalingrad.
