Vyshnevolotsky biography
He immediately commanded to start work and made all the necessary institutions. A sample of the urban structure in Russia ”, I managed to consider one Veshny Volochok better: this is a pretty active town, owed its rich trade that it stands at the intersection of two most important tracks of the vocabulary: the Moscow railway, or cast iron, as it is called here, and the Water Vylotsk Way, the most important of the three waterways connecting the Volga and, therefore, with the Baltic.
sea. He stood half -starved all the time of his independent state and received bread with a gust and alloy. To send bread to Novgorod, under Volochk the Vyshny later gathered the town, inhabited the merchants and was nicknamed the trade, Torzhok and then new. Here, Peter the Great looked for the satiety of his Peter the very place in which you can melt the requested bread for food. Three miles from Volochka, the River of Firm originates, which flows directly into the Volga near Tver.
For a perspicacious eye, enough: under Volochok lies a large Lake Mstino. The Msta River comes out of the lake, on which the ancient Olga arranged graveyards. MSTA flows to Lake Ilmen and flows into it; Volkhov comes out of Ilmen and flows into Lake Ladoga. Therefore, about the safety of the local cultural centers, once: Bezhetsk, Red Hill, Vesugonsk and even the most diverse Volochka, we can be calm.
They say almost unbelievable: as if the water pool of the Vyshny Volochka, with its versus district and the miracles of hydraulic engineering, was built under Peter the Great Serdyukov, either Tatar, or Russian, without multi -sized projects and estimates, without commission and their considerations and, finally, without any almost administrative observation staff.
There is no doubt that Baylt was built under Catherine II. And this reservoir is almost without repair for years. They interpret that Serdyukov cared only about himself that he had built a flour mill and made a dam for her; Baylot is called “factory” in the memory of the Serdyukovskaya mill to today; The stone house, surrounded by alleys running around the pool, is modern of those days and, undoubtedly, Dutch outlines, which are generally quite preserved.
Vyshnevolotsky area of the watershed is really extremely rich in water. A lot of lakes, part of artificial, swamps and rivers, on the sides of the vying Volochok, Mstes and Tversa are gloomy, and water reserves are huge. These reserves, despite the current fate of the system, are still necessary, because they can be directed if necessary and exclusively to the Volga, through Tverts. This trip lasted from May 24 to June 20.
Ermakova with his sons, rising by his brick walls on the very shore of TsNE. Ermakov, the father of the current owners, left the local almshouse for a person and, having fixed all the buildings for her, also put capital of 50 rubles. This is not enough; To support the really remarkable for luxury and expediency, the institution and the sons of the deceased generously give them to the almshouse “as much as necessary”.
The fact is that 20 miles from Volochka, at the very source of Msta from Lake Mstino, stands a rather high mountain above the lake. The area is very beautiful; The hills, a little lower, surround it; Two villages and two estates are near; There is a lot of water and greens. At the very source of MSTU, the first Mstestin gateway is erected in a granite frame.
During the prosperity of the Vyshnevolotsky system, there was a main pulsation and thousands of ships and thousands of people converged. Her fate ... is worthy of a cheap novel or a long movie. Brief content: a poor girl from a hasty Volochochka, the thorny path to the Kremlin, beauty. Thrusted with the first husband, the child is in his arms. Acquaintance with Stalin.
From time immemorial, small merchant ships have dragged here, which the city owes its name. The first written mention of the settlement on the site of the current Verkhny Volochka dates back to the year, but the city was destined to become only after three centuries, by the year. The main incentives for economic development have long remained the first water system in Russia, connecting the Nizhny Volga region with the Baltic Sea, and the land road between St.
Petersburg and Moscow. Russian years ”, fate was pleased to play a cruel joke with the hastily Volochk. It was supposed to build one of the stations of the first railway in Russia, which was supposed to connect Petersburg and Moscow. This promised to significantly revive the provincial city. However, the initial plan was rejected by Nicholas I. Having drawn a straight line on the map, he ordered the way to make the way the shortest way between the two Russian capitals.
So Vyshny Volochek and remained outside the railway track, in a distance of large centers of Russia. Russian years ”, according to the census of the year, 16 thousand inhabitants lived in the Vyshny Volochka, and even less, and even less, in the days of Kusevitsky’s youth. But even then, Vyshny Volochek favorably differed from many small Russian cities with its relative landscaping.Like a sea lagoon, the shore of the Tsninsky Canal with a St.
Petersburg bridge was bent over the Tsninsky Canal. The Cathedral Square with a large cathedral and shopping rows was facing the face to the channel. Nearby, the Kazan Convent of the Russian Years towered, more than once called Vyshny Volochek and “provincial Petersburg”, which was facilitated by the regular development of the city crossed by the channels, its bridges and embankments.
Significant changes did not make several sawdrops, paper spinning and weaving factories into the face of the city. It was still determined by the nature of the Russian North, channels, the abundance of docks, barges and small fishing vessels. He was also determined by the inhabitants - tightly tailored, tanned captains and fishermen, whose life was inextricably linked with the Volga.
Russian years ”, Vyshny Volochek in memoirs, letters and diary prose [edit] at ninth o'clock in the morning we arrived in the Veshny Volochek and stopped for a few time in order to inspect the channel of the name of this city connecting Tversu ... and onago gateways. It seems that they intend to build ... a stone, for it lies near the gateways of this channel and some have already begun to strain, which gives the city a beauty when the stone buildings in the city of the city are multiplied.
In the evening we arrived in the city of Torzhek, where we had dinner.
This city represents a beautiful view from afar and has very beautiful houses. I was surprised at the many bares passing through the channel, and the guardianship of the Great Catherine, who used so many labors and dependents in order to deliver free communication with water and so that it was convenient to supply the capital with food supplies. Meanwhile, how we changed the horses, we went out into the tavern and rested somewhat.
Having drove away a few miles from there, we had in mind to Mstinin Lake, which struck me with its space. But here you can correct the fact that I will send for letters to Volochek. Although it is three times further than before the outbreak, but at least at least you will get the point, but the Mishinkins are going through Moscow, they first reached in a month, and now they will reach 6 weeks, because from Moscow via Torzhok, the letter will lie everywhere until it reaches the uniform.
Now the post office from Volochka to Tver along the highway through the bastard and Torzhok walks only twice a week, but there should be letters on these points everywhere, which is why and nine days from Moscow. In the Vyshny Volochka, the parking lot, and not the main folding place, as G. Babst says in the article of his “river region of the Volga” from the Vyshny Volochka, performs in half of May and reaches S.
in the Tver province in the Vyshnevolotsky district of the Khotykin Lotsman. There was some old man, from whom we talked. Yes, and what they, from them, are no good: now the steamers in Tver, sterlets were divorced for nothing! Lensky is still a hill and a self-confident Muscovite. All this is not a real matter, and I doubt that it succeeds. It is not possible mainly due to the lack of performers, who instead of the ancient Romans give more, the hearse-tops.
Only one Kachalov made a good impression. In general, when this maid speaks of fashion and toilets, it smells directly to the haste. God, what a wretched view in all respects. This is not an imperial opera, but a volchayk. It finally becomes dark. Almost in the dark, we drive a high-wound with the same group of churches and a fortress wall over the city. A real cabman on the phaeton, and the horse cowards as expected.
No matter how sorry, it was, I had to skip the Valdai hill past the eyes and past the ears, “The bell, the gift of Valdai ...” in complete darkness and dullness of fatigue. He was born in Vyshny Volochka, near Tver, July 26. Memories ”, I woke up in the morning, and my eyes became painful from unexpected whiteness: everywhere there was snow. Volochek met us with a fierce cold.
Blue twilight thickened, people wrapped themselves in collars and shawls, steam curled over them, and I had fun: the snow that I had never seen in my feet creaked under my feet. We went to the city, and arrived in a large village with darkened huts, with windows laid with cotton, with geranium pots on the windowsills.
