History

The first mention of the village "Kaduy" was recorded in 1626.[citation needed]

Kaduy was founded in 1904 as the settlement around a station on the railway connecting Vologda and Saint Petersburg The actual traffic was open in 1906.[2] At the time, Kaduy was located in Cherepovetsky Uyezd of Novgorod Governorate.

In June 1918, five uyezds of Novgorod Governorate, including Cherepovetsky Uyezds, were split off to form Cherepovets Governorate, with the administrative center in Cherepovets. On August 1, 1927 Cherepovets Governorate was abolished, and its area became Cherepovets Okrug of Leningrad Oblast. Simultaneously, uyezds were abolished, and Kaduysky District with the center in Kaduy was established. On September 23, 1937 Kaduysky District was transferred to newly established Vologda Oblast.[3]

In 1947, Kaduy got the status of an urban-type settlement.[3]
