Ruzayevka (; , Orozaj; , Orazaj oš) is a town in the Republic of Mordovia, Russia, located on the Insar River, southwest of Saransk. Population:

==History== The town was founded on the land given to murza Uraza Tankacheev in 1631 by Russian tsar Michael Fedorovich and is believed to be named after him. The Tatar princes and murzas were owners of Ruzayevka up to 1715. In 1725, the land and peasants were given to the Lieutenant Tikhon Lukin, who owned it for more than 30 years, and then went bankrupt and in 1757 sold it to the court Councilor Yeremey Struysky. For more than a hundred years (1757–1861) Ruzayevka belonged to landowners from the Struysky noble family.
