Lodeynoye Pole
On August 1, 1927, the uyezds in Leningrad Oblast were abolished, and Podporozhsky District with the administrative center in Podporozhye was established. It was a part of Lodeynoye Pole Okrug of Leningrad Oblast and included areas formerly belonging to Lodeynopolsky Uyezd. Nikolskoye became a part of the district. Between 1941 and 1944, during World War II, Nikolskoye was occupied by Finnish troops. In 1949, Nikolskoye was granted urban-type settlement status and renamed Nikolsky.
