The name Gadstrup is first documented in 1176 as Gadstorp (1257 Garsthorp). In 1568, prebend of Gadstrup, one of the six prebends associated with the cathedral chapter in Roskilde, owned six farms in Gadstrup as well as three in Ramsølille and one in Viby. Our Lady's Abbey also owned property in the village at this point. In 1682, Gadstrup consisted of 6 farms and one house. In 1808, it consisted of seven farms but in 1838 only of four farms, probably because some of the farms had moved out of the village.[2]
Gadstrup station opened on the 4. October 1870, serving the new Zealand South Line between Copenhagen and the ferries to Falster by way of Køge and Næstved.[3] This led to the development of a new district located on fields which previously belonged to the village Salløv in the neighbouring parish of Snoldelev. In 1924, with the opening of the Ringsted–Næstved leg of the current South Line, Gadstrup station was reduced to a station of local importance.
