Résumé
Likhoslavl (Лихосла́вль) is a town and the administrative center of Likhoslavlsky District in Tver Oblast, Russia, located on the Moscow–St. Petersburg Railway, northwest of Tver, the administrative center of the oblast. Population: Likhoslavl developed on the spot where localities of Ostashkovo (Осташково, founded in 1624) and Likhoslavl (first mentioned in the early 19th century) once stood. Likhoslavl grew up as a settlement serving the railway station. It was a part of Novotorzhsky Uyezd of Tver Governorate. It was granted town status in 1925. On July 12, 1929, the governorates and uyezds were abolished. Likhoslavlsky District, with the administrative center in Likhoslavl, was established within Tver Okrug of Moscow Oblast. On July 23, 1930, the okrugs were abolished and the districts were directly subordinated to the oblast. On January 29, 1935, Likhoslavlsky District was transferred to newly established Kalinin Oblast. On July 9, 1937, Likhoslavlsky District was included into Karelian National Okrug, which was established as a Tver Karelians autonomy, and became its administrative center. On February 7, 1939, the okrug was abolished. In February 1, 1963, during the abortive administrative reform by Nikita Khrushchev, Likhoslavlsky District was merged into Torzhoksky District, but on March 4, 1964 it was re-established. In 1990, Kalinin Oblast was renamed Tver Oblast. Within the framework of administrative divisions, Likhoslavl serves as the administrative center of Likhoslavlsky District. As an administrative division, it is, together with three rural localities, incorporated within Likhoslavlsky District as Likhoslavl Urban Settlement. As a municipal division, this administrative unit also has urban settlement status and is a part of Likhoslavlsky Municipal District. There are enterprises of electrotechnical, ceramic, and food industries in Likhoslavl. Likhoslavl has a railway station on the railway connecting Moscow and St. Petersburg. Another railway branches west and heads to Torzhok and further to Ostashkov and Rzhev.
