Zagvozdka

Zagvozdka is a historical district of Gatchina that was formed in the 19th century on the site of a dacha settlement between the village of Malaya Gatchina (Solodukha) and the city. In 1910, a school was opened here, where P. Inki taught, and by the mid-20th century, the population of Malaya Zagvozdka numbered several hundred people, predominantly Russians. In 1796, Zagvozdinskaya Street was laid to the village, which later bore the name Lyutsevskaya, and is now known as Chkalov Street.
