History edit

 
War cemetery in Sertolovo

It was founded in 1936[2] on the place of a former settlement of Ingrian Finns, whose inhabitants were deported. The settlement was mentioned in earlier sources as Sirotala. In 1936, military personnel moved in and in 1939–1940, Sertolovo was used as a base from where troops were sent to the Winter War. From the beginning, Sertolovo was a part of Vsevolozhsky District of Leningrad Oblast.[citation needed] During World War II, it was not occupied and was together with the city of Leningrad surrounded by German and Finnish troops. After the war, there was almost no civil population in Sertolovo, until massive housing construction started in the 1950s. In 1977, Sertolovo was granted urban-type settlement status,[citation needed] and in 1998, town status.[2] It was the town of oblast significance until 2010,[citation needed] when the administrative structure of Leningrad Oblast was harmonized with its municipal structure.[11] At that time, Sertolovo became a town of district significance.

Administrative and municipal status edit

Within the framework of administrative divisions, it is, together with the settlement of Zapadnaya Litsa, incorporated within Vsevolozhsky District as Sertolovskoye Settlement Municipal Formation.[1] As a municipal division, Sertolovskoye Settlement Municipal Formation is incorporated within Vsevolozhsky Municipal District as Sertolovskoye Urban Settlement.[5]

Economy edit

The economy of Sertolovo is based on military installations. About 70% of the population as of 2009 were the military personnel and their families.[12]

Industry edit

Industrial enterprises in Sertolovo produce concrete constructions and plastic containers.[12]

The town is several kilometers northeast of the Pesochnaya railway platform located on the railroad which connects St. Petersburg and Vyborg.
