Slavkovitchi

Slavkovichi lies in the Pskov country between the Velikaya and the lands around Porkhov. The settlement was recorded in the cadastral books of 1585–1587 as a pogost, the center of the Slavkovskaya district of the Rozhnitsa area. Its setting belonged to the territory once governed by the Pskov Republic, which became part of the Grand Duchy of Moscow in 1510. By the time of the cadastral record, Slavkovichi served as a local center within the Russian state.
