history

The place was first mentioned in 1727 on a map of Ingermanland as Chartschewnja Sablina , obviously a Sablin restaurant. Only a small town until 1810, families from the Yaroslavl governorate settled here . In the 19th century the lands belonged to various high nobility , such as the wife of the Tsar's court master Anna Naryshkina, and later Count Nikolai Rumjanzew .

After the opening of the Nikolaibahn from Saint Petersburg to Moscow in 1851, a settlement was built around the station. By the end of the century it developed into a larger dacha settlement , called Datschnoje Sablino. A horse-drawn tram existed there from 1905 to around 1918 .

The districts gradually grew together and were given the name Uljanowka on December 9, 1922 . The head of state Lenin (actually Vladimir Ulyanov), who was still alive at the time of the renaming, had lived there from 1905 to 1906 with his sister Anna Jelisarowa-Ulyanova. Since May 16, 1927 Ulyanovka has had urban-type settlement status.

During the Second World War , the place was occupied by the German Wehrmacht during the Leningrad blockade from autumn 1941 to January 24, 1944 .
