Pavlovo (Russian: Па́влово) is an urban locality (an urban-type settlement) in Kirovsky District of Leningrad Oblast, Russia, located on the left bank of the Neva River, at the mouth of the Mga River, east of Saint Petersburg.
[7] Pavlovo, or Pavlovo-na-Neve, was founded in the second half of the 19th century to serve sand quarries which proliferated in the middle course of the Neva.

Between September 1941 and January 1944, during World War II, Pavlovo was occupied by German troops.
