In 1941, the city of Luga was a place of fierce fighting on the outskirts of Leningrad. Having stumbled upon the growing resistance of the Soviet troops on the Luga defensive line, the German command on July 19 was forced to suspend the offensive to Leningrad before the approach of the main forces of Army Group North. The Luga defensive line for three weeks stopped the German offensive on Leningrad, which allowed the Soviet troops to create a more solid defense on the far and near approaches to the city. On August 2, 1977, for the courage and heroism displayed by the city workers during the Great Patriotic War, for great successes in economic activities and cultural construction, and in connection with the 200th anniversary of the founding, Luga City was awarded the Order of the Patriotic War of the 1st degree. On May 5, 2008, the city of Luga was awarded the honorary title of the Russian Federation "City of Military Glory"
