History

Sandovo railway station was open in 1919.^[10] At the time, it belonged to Vesyegonsky Uyezd of Tver Governorate. The station was named after the selo of Sandovo, however, it was located far from the selo. The closest village to the station was Orudovo. On April 25, 1921, Vesyegonsky Uyezd was transferred to newly established Rybinsk Governorate. On February 15, 1923, Rybinsk Governorate was abolished, and the uyezd was transferred back to Tver Governorate.^[11]

On July 12, 1929 the governorates and uyezds were abolished. Sandovsky District, with the administrative center in the selo of Sandovo, was established within Bezhetsk Okrug of Moscow Oblast. On July 23, 1930, the okrugs were abolished, and the districts were directly subordinated to the oblast.^[11] In 1932, the district center was transferred to the village of Orudovo, which eventually grew up as the settlement of Sandovo. Simultaneously, the selo of Sandovo was renamed Staroye Sandovo.^[3] On January 29, 1935 Kalinin Oblast was established, and Sandovsky District was transferred to Tver Oblast. In February 1963, during the abortive Khrushchyov administrative reform, Sandovsky District was merged into Vesyegonsly District, but in January 1965 it was re-established.^[11] In 1967, Sandovo was granted urban-type settlement status.^[3]
