Novaya Ladoga ((ロシア語:Но́вая Ла́дога)) is a town in Volkhovsky District of Leningrad Oblast, Russia, located at the point where the Volkhov River flows into Lake Ladoga, east of St. Petersburg. Population: ==History== The Nikolo-Medvedsky (St. Nicholas) Monastery stood on the site of the modern town since the 15th century, but the nearby ''sloboda'' was long overshadowed by the first Russian capital, Staraya Ladoga, located just a few miles upstream. In 1702–1704, during the Great Northern War, Peter the Great established a shipyard there, fortified the monastery, and ordered the population of Staraya Ladoga to relocate to the nearby village. Town rights were granted to it in 1704.〔 The newly founded town grew in importance in connection with construction of the Ladoga Canal and Volga-Baltic Waterway in the 18th and 19th centuries. In 1719, Novaya Ladoga was included to St. Petersburg Governorate. In 1727, separate Novgorod Governorate was split off, and in 1773 Novoladozhsky Uyezd, with its seat in Novaya Ladoga, was established.〔 In 1776, the area was transferred to Novgorod Viceroyalty and in 1781, it was moved back into St. Petersburg Governorate.〔 On December 9, 1922, the administrative center of the uyezd was moved to the ''selo'' of Gostinopolye, which was renamed Volkhov and was granted town status. The uyezd was renamed Volkhovsky.〔 In 1924, the changes were rolled back, the administrative center moved to Novaya Ladoga, and Volkhov was demoted to a ''selo'' (which was eventually renamed Gostinopolye).〔 The name of the uyezd, however, remained Volkhovsky.〔 On August 1, 1927, the uyezds were abolished and Volkhovsky District, with the administrative center in the urban-type settlement of Zvanka, was established. The governorates were also abolished and the district became a part of Leningrad Okrug of Leningrad Oblast.〔 On July 23, 1930, the okrugs were abolished as well and the districts were directly subordinated to the oblast.〔 On March 20, 1946, Novoladozhsky District with the administrative center located in Novaya Ladoga was split off Volkhovsky District.〔 On February 1, 1963, Novoladozhsky District was abolished and merged into Volkhovsky District.〔 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Novaya Ladoga」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
