Gatchinsky District (Russian: Га́тчинский райо́н) is a district (raion) of Leningrad Oblast, Russia. Its administrative center is the town of Gatchina, which is not administratively a part of the district itself. District's population: 132,010 (2002 Census);[3] 138,022 (1989 Census).[4] Area: 2,868.7 km².[5]
The district was established in 1927 as Krasnogvardeysky District (Красногварде́йский райо́н), which was renamed Gatchinsky in 1944.[5] In 1953, parts of abolished Pavlovsky District were merged into Gatchinsky District.[5] In 1963—1965, Lomonosovsky District was merged into Gatchinsky District, while at the same time parts of Gatchinsky District were transferred to Luzhsky District.[5] In 1965, however, Gatchinsky District was restored in old borders.
The town of Kommunar and four urban-type settlements (Druzhnaya Gorka, Siversky, Taytsy, and Vyritsa) are located on the district's territory.
