History
The original name of the settlement - Johannes - is associated with the Lutheran parish of St. Johannes (known since the 17th century, a stone church was built in 1888). In 1925, during the construction of the Vyborg-Koivisto railway (Primorsk), the station was named Johannes.
Until 1917 - as part of the Grand Duchy of Finland , and in 1917-1940 - as part of independent Finland .
The status of an urban-type settlement has been since 1940 . It received its modern name in 1948 in memory of the Hero of the Soviet Union , the pilot M.A. Sovetsky , who died in 1944.
Economics
The main (city-forming) enterprise of the village is the Vyborg Pulp and Paper Mill OJSC, built by Finnish builders (as well as a number of village buildings) in 1926 . During the years of perestroika, the plant was reconstructed by Finnish and Swedish builders. New workshops and a waste treatment system were built. The constructed workshops were equipped with Austrian, Finnish and German equipment. In the 1990s, after a large change of ownership, most of the equipment was lost. At the moment, on the territory of Vyborg Pulp there is a construction of an enterprise for the production of fuel pellets (biofuel from wood waste), as well as a pier for their shipment by sea. It is expected that after reaching full capacity (1 million tons of pellets per year), the plant will become the world's largest producer of this fuel [3] .
In the village there are: hairdressing salons, beauty salon, veterinary clinic, tire fitting, car repair shops, car wash, gas station . Also in the village there are grocery, industrial, construction goods stores, a furniture store, auto parts, a market, and pharmacies. Leisure can be spent in cafe-bars, in a disco-bar or restaurant.
