Vysokovsk was founded in 1879 due to the construction of a textile factory by the Vysokovskaya Manufactory Company. Two minor settlements servicing the factory—Vysokoye (Высо́кое) and Novy Bazar (Но́вый База́р)—grew into a small town, which would be renamed Vysokovsky (Высоко́вский) in 1928. It was granted town status in 1940 and named Vysokovsk.
