Pargolovo

It was first mentioned in the Scribe Book of the Vodskaya Pyatina in 1500 as the village of Parkola ^{[3] [4]} , which was located on the northern shore of the lake of the same name . There is a version that the toponym Pargolovo comes from the Baltic-Finnish designation of the god of thunder Perkele ^[4] . In the XVII century, there was a Swedish manor (designated on the maps of 1662 as Kabiluya ) ^[5] , which Peter I presented to his daughter Elizabeth Petrovna .

In 1746, Empress Elizaveta Petrovna elevated Pyotr Ivanovich Shuvalov to count dignity and presented him with the Pargolovsky Manor with all its villages and lands (now Shuvalovsky Park ). The Shuvalovs' possessions began north of Poklonnaya Gora and stretched along the Vyborg tract ^[5] . The Shuvalovs have owned the Shuvalov District for over 150 years. The Shuvalovs settled the southern part of their possessions by peasants from the Suzdal district , which affected the toponymy of the region ( Suzdal Lakes , Suzdal Avenue ). After the death of the last count in 1903, the estate was inherited by his relative, Illarion Vorontsov-Dashkov .

All the manor buildings were located in the park with lakes, now known as Shuvalovsky Park . Among these buildings is the church of St. app. Peter and Paul , in which on June 30, 1872 Nikolai Rimsky-Korsakov was married with Nadezhda Purgold . Immediately north of the Shuvalov possessions lay the estate of the Lopukhins-Vyazemsky .

Since the 1830s, Pargolovo has become a popular holiday destination. The influx of passengers traveling in the summer for a walk along the Vyborg highway was so great that in 1844 the passenger line of Spassky Stagecoaches was opened. In 1870, the Finnish Railway passed through the territory of the Shuvalov estate. I. S. Turgenev , N. A. Nekrasov , A. N. Maykov , M. A. Balakirev , A. K. Glazunov , P. A. Fedotov rested in the neighboring cottages, and the writer D. N. Mamin-Sibiryak lived here . The surroundings of Pargolov were depicted by I. I. Shishkin on the etching “Fir Trees in the Shuvalovsky Park”.

At the beginning of the 20th century, the villages of Starozhilovka, Kabalovka, Zamanilovka, which were inhabited by peasants from central Russian provinces, were included in Pargolov. For 28 years (from 1878 to 1906), Russian music and art critic V.V. Stasov lived in a dacha in the village of Starozhilovka. A frequent guest of Stasov was I.E. Repin . There were also N. A. Rimsky-Korsakov , S. M. Lyapunov , Caesar Cui , M. M. Antokolsky , I. Ya. Ginsburg , V. V. Vereshchagin , F. I. Chaliapin , M. Gorky .

In connection with the organization of the house-building plant in 1938, Pargolovo received the status of an urban-type settlement . In the middle of the 20th century , the Novo-Pargolovskaya colony was included in the 1st Pargolov, then the settlement of Torfyanoye was included in the composition of Pargolov. At the end of the 20th century, part of the village became part of St. Petersburg.

Currently, Pargolovo is administratively part of the Vyborg district of St. Petersburg, its borders are determined by the law "On the territorial structure of St. Petersburg (as amended on December 26, 2014)" ^[6] .
