History

The first references to Kraskovo date back to 1334, but the village existed since the mid-13th century.[5]

Kraskovo-Bogorodskoye, an old estate of the Trubetskoy knyazes, is located on the Pekhorka River.

Kraskovo was under the rule of the archbishop of Kaločs, until the 14th century, when the Kačica family ruled. Several Yeoman families followed.[5]

It was heavily damaged after the October Revolution of 1917—the park was deforested and most of its area was used for construction. The main house with its auxiliary wings and a church, household courtyard, and a crude kerb-stone fence still remain.

Another historic site of Kraskovo is the brick empire Vladimir church, constructed in 1831–1832.

In 1898, the first hospital opened, which is known today as Lyuberetsky District Hospital #1. There are also children and adult clinics and a veterinarian for domestic animals.
