Г.Syzran (we will describe the sights further) is a small town, which is located in the Samara region. This town stretches out on one of the banks of the immense Volga. The name of the city comes from the eponymous river Syzran. But today this reservoir is styled Syzranka. What nationality do not live here! These are Ukrainians, Russians, Armenians and Tatars.
As mentioned above, Syzran isIt’s a multiethnic city, so the sights here belong to different cultures. So, I would like to mention the Syzran Mosque. The city has four such religious buildings. But we will talk about what is on the street. Decembrists. This building was built in 1990. Later the house was acquired by Alexey Rakhmatulin. But, heeding the request of his parent, Alexey handed the house to Nail Amirov. He was the imam-khatib and had to convert the building into a mosque.
Many sights of Syzran haveamazing story. And the mosque was no exception. For the Muslims of this city, its discovery was a real holiday and a great event. After all, before the establishment of this institution, they were forced to conduct their services in their own homes. The mosque can simultaneously accommodate about half a thousand people.
Kazan Cathedral - no less importantcultural and religious object than a mosque. The temple was built in 1872. It was built on the site of the former Mother of God Convent (Syzran). The sights of the city, many begin to inspect it from here. The settlement received the cathedral thanks to the means of the townspeople and donations of a private nature. In a word, with the world on a thread.
The main throne of the church was consecrated in 1872, andIt is named after the Kazan Icon of the Mother of God. After five months, they consecrated the second throne, which was given the name of Alexander Nevsky. This cathedral with five chapters was considered the most beautiful local structure. In 1906, trouble struck Syzran. The city was in flames, but the majestic temple was not damaged at all. And all thanks to the guard, who managed to extinguish the flame, barely his tongues touched the fence of the holy place. But some destruction did occur. The gatehouse and bell tower burned down. In the thirties of the last century, the temple was closed. During the war, believers defended him, and he was rediscovered.
Sights of Syzran are very lovedtravelers. Many strive to get into this town and admire the local "celebrities." One of these stars is the Kremlin. Yes, Syzran also has its own complex under this name. And the existence of the city began with him. The decree of Peter I in the XVII-XVIII centuries was founded this monument of architecture. That territory, where the town is located today, in former times was regularly subjected to attacks by nomadic tribes and robbers. The village was poorly fortified. Therefore, the Kremlin was obliged to become a kind of fortification.
Initially, there were five towers:four of wood and one of stone, which only managed to live to the present. Many sights of Syzran were destroyed and failed to preserve their original majesty to the present day. This remaining tower is called Spasskaya, and it served as the main gate of the Kremlin. It has an unsurpassed hip roof. In 1717 the Church of the Nativity of Christ appeared. After a short period of time it was decided to rebuild it. Today it is contemplated as it was reborn in 1730. The Kremlin Syzran only once participated in combat battles. That was when he was captured by the army of Emelyan Pugachev.
Tourists know that it is beautiful and comfortable.city. And the sights of Syzran here are very different: from the world famous to those that only local people know about. If from the central city street you turn into Proletarsky lane and go down to the Krymsee river, then an old and rather shabby house will open up. There are no markings on it.
This house before the revolution was ownedHertz Simonovich Kristalinsky. He was the grandfather of the famous performer Maya Kristalinskaya. Even during the First World War, Hertz Simonovich moved to Syzran from Mogilev. He handed over the apartment of his house to the tuner of musical instruments Ilya Ilich Ostrovsky. After many years, Arkady, the son of Ilya Ilyich, will become a famous author of such hits, as "The Solar Circle", "Weak Toys Sleep", "The Song Stays with Man" and others. It was in this inconspicuous house that the famous composer spent his childhood, under the lullaby of which more than one generation of children fall asleep.
Удивительный город Сызрань!Sights, photos of which are in our review, can not leave indifferent. But he is known for another architectural masterpiece. Its name is Sterlyadkin’s mansion. Its construction took place during 1908-1914. This is the most beautiful monument of architecture of Syzran. The customer was a merchant Sergei Sterlyadkin. During the construction work, the most innovative materials of that time were used: facing bricks and multi-colored decorative tiles.
