It was first mentioned in the 15th century as a trade settlement.[5] In 1851, a railway station was built and the development of the settlement of Lyuban-Gorka (Любань-Горка), serving the railway station started.[citation needed] On June 3, 1917, Lyuban-Gorka was granted town status and renamed Lyuban.[6] Lyuban was a part of Novgorodsky Uyezd of Novgorod Governorate.[6]

On August 1, 1927, the uyezds were abolished and Lyubansky District, with the administrative center in Lyuban, was established.[6] The governorates were also abolished and the district became a part of Leningrad Okrug of Leningrad Oblast.[10] On August 15, 1930, the okrugs were abolished as well and the districts were directly subordinated to the oblast.[11] On August 19, 1930, Lyubansky District was abolished and Lyuban became a part of newly established Tosnensky District.[10] Between September 1941 and January 1944, during World War II, Lyuban was occupied by German troops.[12]
