History

The settlement was founded in the 19th century to serve the brick factory built by merchant Pirogov.[7] At the time, it was a part of Shlisselburgsky Uyezd of Saint Petersburg Governorate. In 1914, the governorate was renamed Leningradsky. On February 14, 1923 Shlisselburgsky Uyezd was merged into Petrogradsky Uyezd. In January, 1924 the uyezd and the governorate were renamed Leningradsky.[8]

On August 1, 1927, the uyezds were abolished and Kolpinsky District, with the administrative center in the town of Kolpino, was established. The settlement became a part of Ovtsynsky Selsoviet of Kolpinsky District.[9] On August 19, 1930 Kolpinsky District was abolished and merged into newly established Leningradsky Prigorodny District with the administrative center in the city of Leningrad. On August 19, 1936 Leningradsky Prigorodny District was abolished, and the settlement was transferred into Slutsky District.[10] In 1944, Slutsky District was renamed Pavlovsky, and on April 28, 1948 Ust-Izhorsky Selsoviet, which included the settlement, was transferred to Vsevolozhsky District.[11] In 1961, the settlement was named Imeni Sverdlova. It was granted urban-type settlement status in 1979.[7]
