It was first mentioned in 1462 as Timofeyevskoye (Тимофеевское). Today, it lacks substantial industry, agriculture and infrastructure and has a small population, with most houses used as summer cottages.
The major landmarks and the oldest structures preserved in Gagino are the All-Merciful Savior and Our Lady of Kazan churches with a ravaged and abandoned cemetery aside.
The All-Merciful Savior church is notable for Feodor Chaliapin's wedding, while Our Lady of Kazan church (colloquially called "Kazanskaya") annually serves as an offstage for the Chaliapin festival.
