History
Named after a nearby village, the settlement was founded in the mid-19th century as the railway station of Belaya (Бе́лая) during the construction of the railroad. At the time, it belonged to Luzhsky Uyezd of Saint Petersburg Governorate. In 1905, it was renamed Strugi Belye (Стру́ги Бе́лые), after the estate of N. M. Lakhtin. In 1919, Strugi Belye was an arena of important events of the Russian Civil War. Originally, the area east of Lake Peipus was under control of the revolutionary government. On October 4, 1919 the White Army troops of Nikolai Yudenich during an advance captured the station of Strugi Belye. On November 6, 1919, it was given its present name by the order of G. A. Tomchuk, a commander of an armored train, after the village was taken from the White Guard Armies, to avoid connotations with White Army (with krasny meaning red in Russian).
