Rural locality (a selo) and the administrative center of Zdvinsky District of Novosibirsk Oblast, Russia, located on the Kargat River. Population: 5,602 (2010 Census). The landscape of Zdvisk is plain; there are some forests and steppe areas around.
It was founded in 1773 as a farmed plot of land called Taskayevo (Таскаево). It grew in size in the following years and in 1896 was renamed Nizhny Kargat (Нижний Каргат). On June 7, 1933, it was given its present name, Zdvinsk, after a local revolutionary M. Zdvinsky who died in 1918. It was granted urban-type settlement status in 1978, but was demoted back to a rural locality in 1992.
