It was founded in 1915 as a settlement servicing a mechanical factory and initially had no name.[citation needed] After 1917, it was called Vozrozhdeniye (Возрожде́ние, lit. revival), Zagorsky (Заго́рский), due to its vicinity to Zagorsk (now Sergiyev Posad); and Krasnozavodsky (Краснозаво́дский).[citation needed] In 1940, it was granted town status and given its present name.[citation needed] On December 8, 1999, a part of Krasnozavodsk containing the research institute and the nearby settlement of Novostroyka were incorporated into the new town of Peresvet.[9] The process was finalized on March 28, 2000.[10]
Within the framework of administrative divisions, it is, together with two rural localities, incorporated within Sergiyevo-Posadsky District as the Town of Krasnozavodsk.[1] As a municipal division, the Town of Krasnozavodsk is incorporated within Sergiyevo-Posadsky Municipal District as Krasnozavodsk Urban Settlement.[4]
