History

Batetsky was founded in 1891 as a settlement serving the station on the railway between St. Petersburg and Vitebsk. It took its name from the nearby village of Batetsko, or Batetskaya. In 1916, the railway connecting Novgorod and Luga also passed through Batetsky.[5] At the time, the station was a part of Luzhsky Uyezd of Petrograd Governorate.

On October 1, 1927, Batetsky became the administrative center of newly established Batetsky District in Luga Okrug of Leningrad Oblast. On July 23, 1930, the okrugs were abolished, and the districts were directly subordinated to the oblast. Between August, 1941 and February 12, 1944, Batetsky was occupied by German troops. On July 5, 1944, Batetsky District was transferred to newly established Novgorod Oblast.[8] On February 1, 1963 the district was abolished in the course of Khrushchyov administrative reform. On December 30, 1966 Batetsky District was re-established.
