Lalsk () is an urban locality (an urban-type settlement) in Luzsky District of Kirov Oblast, Russia, located northeast from Luza, the administrative center of the district. Population:
==History== It takes its name from the Lala River, a tributary of the Luza. The settlement was established by the Novgorodians fleeing east from Ivan the Terrible after the Massacre of Novgorod. It was a large trading outpost in the eastern part of the Russian North in the late 17th and 18th centuries. The earliest stone church was consecrated in 1711.
