History

The first mention of a settlement on the site of modern Gavrilov-Yam dates back to 1545. Then it was a small village of Gavrilovo, in which there were only 7 courtyards and it belonged to the Varnitsky Trinity-Sergius Monastery.

At the end of the 16th century, by decree of Tsar Ivan the Terrible, the village was renamed into Gavrilov Yam, later into Gavrilov-Yamskaya Sloboda, and at the end of the 18th century, in connection with the construction of a stone church - and into the village of Gavrilov-Yam.[11] Town status was granted in 1938.[2]

In the early 2000s, the weaving production of the Moscow-based factory, Trekhgornaya Manufactory, was transferred to the oblast to which the town belongs.^{[citation needed]}

The Gavrilov-Yamskiy Flax Mill traces its history back to the Lokalov textile factory. The mill carries out all stages of flax processing, from flax-combed production to finished products (linen and mixed fabrics, patterned tablecloths, napkins, towels, etc). The plant is the only one in the country that produces art canvas.[12]
