History

Lagodekhi was founded in the 8th century, under the name of Lakuasti, when the Eristavi Archil I ordered to build a fortress.

In the 11th century, Lagodekhi was an important monastery in the historical region of Hereti.

In the 1610s, after the invasion of Shah Abbas, the territory of Lagodekhi was devastated.

In 1830, as a stronghold on the Lezgin cordon Line, the military settlement of Lagodekhi was founded. Until 1917 in the territory of Lagodekhi was the headquarters of the regiment. Next to the regiment itself, at the same time, the construction of a small settlement began, where most of those who ended military service remained, but for some reason did not want to return to their homeland. As a result, the support post was transformed into a civilian settlement in 1857.

1864년부터 1897년까지 성모 마리아 수호라는 이름으로 정교회를 건설하였다.

1912년에 라고데키 자연보호구역이 설립되었다.
