To the north of Zagvozdok was the village of Malaya Gatchina (Soloduha). When in the 19th century Gatchina began to become a suburban center, many wooden houses appeared between these villages, and the whole territory beyond the railway merged into a large suburban village. It was in its place that the modern historical district of the city of Gatchina, called Zagvozdka, was formed .

According to administrative data of 1933, the village was called Malaya Zagvozdka and was part of the Kolpan Finnish National Village Council of the Krasnogvardeisky District ^[16] .

There are different versions of the origin of the name of the area.

• According to one legend, when Peter I drove past Gatchina near the villages during the Northern War , a spoke broke in his carriage. The annoyed king said: "Here's the catch!" And when the carriage traveled a short distance, the second spoke broke, and Peter said: “And this is a big catch!” ^[20] But this version of the origin of the name cannot be true, since the village called Zagoska was mentioned long before the time of Peter the Great.
• According to another version, the name is associated with the location of the village beyond the railway (i.e., behind the nails). This version also cannot be considered as possible, because the Warsaw Railway was built only in 1853.
• The third version connects the name with the Krivichsky word "nail" - spruce forest, that is, a village located behind the spruce forest.

• Industrial zone No. 1: Gatchinsky DSK, Gatchinsky SSK, Burevestnik plant
• City Cemetery : Ruined Church of All Saints , Church of the Beheading of John the Baptist
