Some sources claim that the history of street names begins in 1821. From 1776 to 1821, the street was called Bolshaya Officerskaya. In the first half of the XVIII century, on the site of modern Pravda Street there was a palace settlement, in which lived mainly the employees of the Cabinet of his Imperial Majesty, who were in charge of the property of the royal court, Therefore the name of the street was Kabinetskaya, which existed from 1822 to 1921. According to other sources, until September 1, 1923.
The current name of Pravda Street is due to the fact that on April 22, 1912, the first issue of the newspaper Pravda was printed in a printing house located nearby on Ivanovskaya (now Socialist) Street.
