Ryabchi, formerly known as Ryabchichi, is a village in the Dubrovsky District of the Bryansk Region and serves as the administrative center of the Ryabchinsky rural settlement. It is located 13 kilometers south of the urban-type settlement Dubrovka, situated on both sides of the Belizna River, where there is a dam and a pond.

The village has been mentioned since the 17th century as a village that was part of the Podyvotsky stan of Bryansk County. In the 18th and 19th centuries, it belonged to the noble entrepreneurs Demidovs. Until 1822, Ryabchi was a hamlet that was part of the parish of the village of Golubei. In 1819 and 1822, a stone Vvedensky church was built with funds from E. A. Demidov, which has not survived. In 1823, the village was visited by Emperor Alexander I. In 1885, a church-parish school was opened here.

In the 2000s, a new stone church of the Nativity of the Blessed Virgin Mary was built in Ryabchi, which is currently the only church in the village.
