It was discovered by Praskovjya Parchomenko at Simeis on August 8, 1929. It was named for Grigory Nikolaevich Neujmin, an astronomer at the Pulkovo and Simeis Observatories, who discovered seven comets and more than 70 minor planets. Its provisional designation was 1929 PH.

Photometric observations of this asteroid collected during 2008 show a rotation period of 5.089 ± 0.004 hours with a brightness variation of 0.29 ± 0.02 magnitude.
