The opening of the memorial dedicated to the Siberian Krasnoyarsk residents, was held in may 1975 on the opening day at town square, immediately in front of the Memorial, Hero of the Soviet Union, participant of the great Patriotic war Dmitry Martynov lit the «Eternal flame».

In all the years of its existence, the Museum was rebuilt several times. For example, in 1975, it consisted only of the Hall of Memory, where the list of victims in the great Patriotic war of the people of Krasnoyarsk. The Central part of the hall was decorated with a circular panorama of the «Mourning mother», which made the Krasnoyarsk artist Dmitry Grigorovich. In 1985, at the memorial built exhibition hall, there are exhibits telling about the events of 1941-1945: samples of different weapons, soldiers ' equipment, personal belongings of soldiers, letters and documents of the wartime. Here is one of the working versions of the monument, which was made in Krasnoyarsk by the architect K. Zinich «Siberians — the defenders of Moscow». A little later, the monuments in honor of soldiers killed in local wars during peace time, participants of liquidation of the Chernobyl accident, as well as victims of Stalinist repression.

In 2000, the memorial was again renovated — over building erected a dome roof, and the walls are lined with slabs of marble chips. Five years later, on the 60th anniversary of the Victory, was added to the building the guest room. Currently, there annual meetings of war participants, organized celebrations, various thematic exhibitions and even a wedding ceremony.

Today in the Museum you can see 20 paintings depicting monumental objects, the most famous monuments in the cities-heroes, where he fought Siberian division.

Victory day is the greatest holiday of the Russian people. We should honor that were won by our grandparents and the fact that in Krasnoyarsk there is such an area — it's great. It's all very clean and well maintained, which certainly deserves respect. With you was Ivan, good-bye!

Author sculpture — Areg Demirkhanov, known as one of the best Russian folk architects. The work itself was carried out by the sculptor Konstantin Zinich. The monument, along with the whole complex (granite bowl, two plates) was opened in 2007 at the Peace Square.

NP Rezanov was chamberlain of the Imperial Court, participated in the creation of the Russian-American campaign. He died while returning from America in 1807 in Krasnoyarsk. His path lay then across Siberia. Exactly two centuries later, the inhabitants of the city decided to perpetuate the memory of the NP Rezanov, creating a memorial.

Originally it stood on the pedestal figure Chamberlain, made of plaster. However, later, the plaster was replaced by bronze. At the opening of the monument were a lot of people, among them were both born in Krasnoyarsk, as well as residents of other regions and even guests from California.

With NP Rezanov monument related belief of the strong feelings of love and fidelity. Back in the old days, the lovers met near the place where the burial. Young girls brought back lighted candles and flowers, to love to be happy. And now the couple after the wedding, sent to Rezanova memorial to lay bouquets of happiness.

Well, I think that this is nothing more to add, except that the size of the monument is quite impressive and the place is chosen very well for him.

Goodbye friends!

The monument to Pushkin and Goncharova in Krasnoyarsk is one of the most exquisite monuments of the city. It was installed in 2008. The author of such a great song was made by the architect Areg demirhanov and sculptor Konstantin Zinich. Local authorities it was decided to erect a monument in the mini-Park in the city. The monument was opened in June 2008 to 209 anniversary of the birth of the great poet. 

The monument is made from bronze, which gives it a special grandeur. It is a sculpture of Natalia Goncharova, sitting on the bench, and Alexander Pushkin reads her poems, which are inscribed on a bronze sheet. The monument was erected in the gazebo, which was built specially for him. First of all, the monument carries a deeper meaning and symbolizes love.

In light of all this, I would like to tell about this couple.

After returning from the Mikhailovsky links (1826), in irrepressible amorous adventures Pushkin finally decided to get married. Not because once again fell in love, but because he wanted to «know happiness». All who knew the poet, very surprised. For amorous and indefatigable womanizer it was sudden and strange desire. After all, Pushkin always believed that «marriage holistic soul.» Almost four years the poet was in active search. He was purposefully looking for a bride. And each contender definitely has a crush. It was girls of approximately the same type: young ladies of noble, respectable families of Moscow or Petersburg, certainly beautiful, perfectly mannered and very young, inexperienced, with a bad personality, or, as they called them the poet himself «inseparable and lilei».

In the winter of 1828-1829 at one of the balls Pushkin met sixteen-year-old beauty, Natalya Nikolaevna Goncharova. Spring (may 1) he proposed to her, but the bride's parents refused to Pushkin to adulthood daughter. In the spring of next year (5 April 1830) he reiterates to her mother to Natalia with a letter, which again requested the hand of her daughter. The engagement took place on the sixth of may. Pushkin, by the way, was not so concerned about the attitude of the bride to him, as a respect to her parents. He believed that, with the consent of the parents, he will be able to create from a young, immature beings that he will need for family life. It took many months, full of tumultuous events (the fight with future mother-in-law, the cholera in Moscow, autumn in Boldino, money worries, etc.), before the eighteenth of February, 1831, thirty-two Pushkin married, finally, with a young Natalia Goncharova, which was his nineteenth year. It happened in Moscow in the Church of the ascension on Malaya Nikitskaya.

(We return to the monument)

In General, I liked this place. Despite the bustle of people passing by, it is steeped in romance. After all, when we run forward, not noticing anything around, life is passing us. Most of all I like the romance of the time when reading poems for the beloved was a common thing, when there appeared the Nightclubs where youth spends on drink money parents, trying to seem cooler when girls almost never smoked, while today one in 3-4 girls who smoke.

Chastity and purity, then that's what it was about girls and it's great. Natalia herself is immortalized in bronze just like that. I am sure that in life was the same. With you was Roman Zolotoy. Goodbye

This monument, dedicated to the figures of circus art, is mounted on the prospectus the Krasnoyarsk worker at the circus building in 2008-m to year. Clown sculpture created in the workshop of the sculptor A. E. Tkachuk. The monument is very heavy, a clown weighs several tons. Height of the clown is the height of human growth. The good old clown welcomes all citizens and guests of Krasnoyarsk.

The monument is very realistic-that these clowns were at the beginning of the last century in the circus. There is a sign — to touch the clown is good luck. Well worth it sculptural the clown, all shiny from the touch! And I don't miss the chance to do it, my luck still be useful

Now a little about the circus...

The history of circuses in Krasnoyarsk starts since 1896 and owes its existence as a city, its rapid development, the construction of the Siberian railway. Initially, performances were held on the street or in tents, and only later began to build temporary wooden circuses. Moreover, the construction of such a structure was very simple, unreliable and not very reminiscent of classic, familiar to all in the form of the circus. The original frame was cobbled together from virtually fence boards, after which he strongly resembled a leaky nest, holes and cracks in the Foundation were closed with boards from the broken tea boxes, no additional insulation is not anticipated and therefore the circuses only worked 7-8 months of the year, and the orchestra could play them only in the summer.

The dome of these buildings was done according to the principle of the tent from the canvas, and sometimes even of the old bags. Quickly going to the scene, the same theatrical, it was closed by a curtain suspended by rings to the bar. Benches for spectators amassing from the same rough boards and for a better view were of different heights, the rear was so high, that sitting did not reach the floor with your feet. The lighting was produced by a powerful lamp zippers, which simultaneously served and heaters. In 1917, for the first time in Krasnoyarsk was built up insulated the circus, but he, too, was wooden. Built it with the money of the first circus of the cooperative under the direction of V. Triputina, Coco (Lutz), K. Muscovite. Four years had live shows, but in 1921, the cooperative was destined to disintegrate and management of the building passed into the hands of the city Council.

According to the decision of the same Council, in 1930 the old building was demolished and in its place by the Siberian state theater was built the new winter circus. He in turn stood until 1940, and then in connection with a fair disrepair, it also dismantled. After that for many years the circus was again given in a circus tent, mounted on red and Bridgehead areas. But at this time the circus has not stopped their development.

Happy event occurred in 1971, when the 18th of December in Krasnoyarsk after three years of construction appeared stationary winter circus. Long to decide what it will be, we have discussed various projects, but in the end was adopted a standard design hex buildings as improvements, in particular the strong Foundation of the dome, able to withstand any performances of gymnasts. Architect Vitaly was Nuts. The number of seats amounted to 2000. Directors of the circus, each in his time were T. G. Vozhegova, Z. G. Moiseeva, N. N. Mityaev.

Over the long history of the Krasnoyarsk circus he visited with performances by such famous artists as A. Koromyslov, E. Strepetov, Oleg Popov, Emil Kio, sister Koch, Walter and Mstislav zapashnye, Yuri Nikulin, Pencil, Ali Bey, Margarita Nazarova and others not less known to fans of circus of personality. As the circus became the parent nest for many recent graduates of circus schools.

The main character of the circus — artist who overcomes seemingly insurmountable obstacles, poetiziruet physical labor, courage, human ingenuity, creates a generalized artistic image. The way this is revealed mainly with the help of specific means of circus — tricks. The choice and composition tricks are subordinated to the task of creating the image. The combination of tricks with the other actor's actions constitute a room — a separate complete piece of circus art, a combination of several different character (different genres) numbers representation.

To create a complete artistic image in the art of circus is a big role playing and such arts as music, dance, pantomime, painting and even architecture. Thus, on the creation of circus works employs a team, consisting of both performers and film Director, artist, choreographer, composer, and many others.

Today Krasnoyarsk circus continues its successful activities, regularly delighting guests and city residents all new bright and exciting performances.

And at the end of it all some more photos

For today, we say goodbye to you! See you soon

The most famous of Krasnoyarsk, which entered the history of Russian culture – historical painter Vasily Surikov, who was born in our city on 12 (24) Jan 1848 the Name of Surikova in Krasnoyarsk are street, Park, art school, school and Museum. In the house where he was born and lived the artist created the House Museum of the artist (now the Museum-estate of V. I. Surikov). In many of these places are monuments to the artist.

It is located at the address: street Surikova, 26. The first monument to Surikov work Mr. Lavrov (the depiction of the artist) was placed in 1949 in the courtyard of the House-Museum of V. I. Surikov after its opening. In 1954 bust Surikov (sculptor L. Eidlin, architect V. Kirkhoglani) was installed in the Park, which now bears the name of the artist.

In 1960 in Moscow I. Kotov was made Surikov monument in full growth. He several times changed the place of its location and finally ended up on the street Surikova between St. Basil's Cathedral and the House of artists.

I think that this is nothing more to add, except that the monument itself is very nice and pleasing to the eye, a logical location.

All the more monuments and good luck

Andrew Pozdeev. Painter. I think these people need to erect monuments, because he wrote a number of masterpieces, which are known throughout Russia. In sloih paintings he passed the beauty of the Siberian region, with all his heart he loved Krasnoyarsk. Residents of Krasnoyarsk and visitors love this monument, I am no exception. Beside him constantly photographed people. Monument groomed and tidy. I bet 10 out of 10.

Thank Gluck. Street musician. There was a lot of controversy over this monument, but city residents defended the right to put it. It is not difficult to guess that they love it. He stands on the embankment of the Yenisei, in front of Sars. Often, street musicians are attached next to him and play his own songs… I think it would be nice The monument gives a good mood and positive attitude. I myself, he just cute and I like other people, rubbed his nose and make a wish I put 9 of 10.

Next on the stage of St. Luke. Certainly a great man, who during the war saved hundreds of lives. When I shot this monument, the old lady came up to me and told me about it. I admire this man. There should be no questions about why he erected a monument. But personally I do not really like. To me he seems too gloomy. Because a person can be called a hero 8 points, but take away the gloom of 3. Total 5 out of 10.

White Horse Monument. One of my favorite sites in Krasnoyarsk. It draws attention to the fact that next to the monument made lake, set stones and Kazakh checkers. It creates the very atmosphere, for which many of his love. The horse is made very professionally. Real size. Another advantage — it is something that is dedicated to the monument itself. It is dedicated to the founder of the city. It is said that in this place the Cossacks landed and established a fort «Krasny Yar». Uchityvyaya historical significance and personal affection, I put 10 of 10.

Maksim Gorky. It should be in Central Park, in whose honor and named the park itself. Written by many well-known works that read everything from children to the elderly. Since the beginning of the 20th century, and especially after the October Revolution has a huge impact on the culture and social life, for the development of Soviet literature and progressive world literature. Gorky tradition continued Soviet writers who have enriched the art of new achievements in socialist society. The monument is not very popular, so 9 out of 10.

Anton Pavlovich Chekhov. Writer. It should be near the Opera and Ballet Theatre. He also, like Maxim Gorky made a significant contribution to the development of Russian and world literature. I am very sympathetic to this monument, I advise everyone to go and see for those who have not seen. I would say that it is popular because it is in a very crowded area, one might say, in a favorite place for walking a good half of the residents of Krasnoyarsk. 10 of 10.

And completing our hit parade of the monument to Uncle Vasya drunk. He is also one of my favorite sites. Strange man in a hat holding on to a lamppost, I think is very funny of Krasnoyarsk as his love. His nose is rubbed to a shine hands of those who wish to get a little bit of luck. Cool monument, is also in the center and get to it will not be easy. 10 of 1.

Many thanks for that have read my ranking until the end! I recall that the assessment — this is just my estimate, that can dramatically differ from yours, I just expressed my opinion. Anyone who has not seen these monuments, I advise you to go and see, do not regret it

  And now all goodbye!

Residents of Krasnoyarsk say it with a smile. Original, kind, funny. So speaks about this sculpture Krasnoyarsk citizens and guests of the city.

It was opened on August 17, 2005 near the famous bars. This, incidentally, gives the monument a special charm.

Evening, drunk consciousness on the verge of blackout, the distant noise of the restaurant and the only prop is a pole, and only friend — the dog. Check it out come the newlyweds, because it stands in the square of lovers. It is a favorite vacation spot for Krasnoyarsk citizens and city visitors. Cheerful tourists will definitely post back next with a drunken uncle, a few people can't keep from it.

The bronze man fell asleep, leaning on a lamppost. If he manages with his last strength to hold the dog as if nothing had happened next celebrating small need, looking at his master. The author of the sculpture by local artist Konstantin Zinich. As admitted by the author of work, dogs the original idea was not. This idea was born quite by accident and at first seemed very controversial, but experience has shown that it is very decorated and added to the overall picture.

Uncle looks very well, despite their silly appearance. Bronze alcoholic in a difficult situation, even managed not to drop his hat, and the suit all buttoned up. It is curious that in the hands of sleep keeps the bottle. The monument is very realistic. It seems that if the wind blew stronger, uncle Vasya will have to sleep on the pavement. All the passers-by try to help the fellow countryman. The nose of a fan of spirits polished to a Shine. Dog nose too.

Tourists want happiness, so with the hope of «iconic» places. The dog rubbed the nose just in case, to obtain a portion of miracle's for sure. Krasnoyarsk residents say the monument is a collective image of the 90-ies of the last century, when the rift in the country and in the minds of many were led to the edge. Can you say, drunken hero of the time. A hero that should inspire people aversion to alcohol.

Well, that's it. Stay with me and enjoy the sights of our beloved city!

I want to tell you about the monument, which is dedicated to the great writer A. P. Chekhov.

The monument to A. P. Chekhov is located on the waterfront of the Yenisei river in Krasnoyarsk. The decision to install the monument to the Russian writer was made in honor of his visit to this city in 1890. Then he was traveling to Sakhalin and stayed with a stopover in Krasnoyarsk only a day.

During his walks along the city's waterfront Anton caught a glimpse of the power and charm of the Yenisei river and the Krasnoyarsk city. Later, in «Путевых очерках», he expressed his impression by writing about what is situated this side of the Yenisey river Krasnoyarsk is the most beautiful and best Siberian city.

I would like to briefly tell you about the life of this man:

Born 17 (29) January 1860 in Taganrog in the family of a merchant. From an early age, together with his brothers Anton helped his father in his shop. Chekhov's childhood was held in the Church's holidays, every day the future writer sang in the Church choir.

The training took place in the Greek grammar school, where the little Chekhov entered the preparatory class in 1868. Then Anton started to study at the Moscow University medical faculty, graduating in 1884. After that is engaged in medical practice. For all the years of study Chekhov had to work in every way: he was a teacher, worked with the magazine, wrote a brief humoresque.

After purchasing the Melikhovo estate, conducts social activities, helping people (1892-1899). At the time it was written many works, among which: the plays of Chekhov «Вишневый сад», «Три сестры», «Чайка», «Дядя Ваня». The staging of «Чайка» at the Moscow art Theater in 1898, was a well-deserved triumph of Chekhov-playwright

Hope you found something useful here for yourself! Goodbye!

The Central Park of the city of Krasnoyarsk is located on the left Bank of the Yenisei river in the historic part of the city, occupying an area of 15 hectares. On the site of the present Central Park since 1828 there was a City garden — the cottage of the first Governor of the Yenisei province of Alexander Stepanov. When the tab was part of virgin pine forest stretched from the Yenisei river to Kacha.

In 1934, the garden City of Krasnoyarsk gets a new name — the Park of culture and rest named after Gorky. Now it is divided into two parts — an active zone (West of Central Avenue) with plenty of attractions, and quiet zone (to the East of Central Avenue) for a relaxing holiday. Among surviving from ancient times of rare trees, including relict pine trees.

In 1936 the Park in Krasnoyarsk was put Russia's first children's railway, is still operating and transporting annually up to 30,000 people. Today in the Park there are a lot of children and adult rides, including the Ferris wheel. Spectacular entertainment, educational, sporting events and activities. Winter on the Central alley, an ice rink

Born in Nizhny Novgorod. The son of the Manager of steamship offices Savvateeva Maxim Peshkov and Varvara Vasilievna, nee Kagirinai. In seven years was left an orphan and lived with his grandfather, the once rich Dyer, by that time bankrupt.

Alexei Peshkov had since childhood to earn a living that prompted the writer to continue to take the pseudonym Bitter. In early childhood, served as errand boy in the Shoe store, then as an apprentice draughtsman. Unable to bear the humiliation, ran away from home. Worked as the cook on the Volga steamer. At the age of 15 arrived in Kazan with the intention to get an education, but, having no material support, could not carry out the intention.

In Kazan found out life in the slums and bedsits. Driven to desperation, made an unsuccessful suicide attempt. From Kazan moved into the Empress, he worked as a watchman on the railroad. Then returned to Nizhny Novgorod, where he became a scribe of the juryman M. A. Lapina, who did a lot for young Peshkov.

Not remaining in one place, went on foot to the South of Russia, where he tried himself and the Caspian fisheries, and the construction of the breakwater, and other works.

In 1892 was first printed the story of Gorky «Makar Chudra». The following year, he returned to Nizhny Novgorod, where he met with the writer V. G. Korolenko, who took great part in the life of a young writer.

In 1898, Gorky was already a famous writer. His books have sold thousands of copies, and fame spread beyond the borders of Russia. Bitter is the author of numerous short stories, novels «Foma Gordeyev», «Mother», «the Thing Artamonova,» etc., plays «Enemies», «Commoners», «bottom», «Gardeners», «Vassa Zheleznova» epic novel «Life of Klim Samgin».

Since 1901 the writer began to openly Express sympathy to the revolutionary movement that has angered the government. Since that time, Gorky was arrested and persecuted. In 1906 he went abroad to Europe and America.

After the accomplishment of the Russian revolution of 1917, Gorky became the initiator of creation and first Chairman of the Union of writers of the USSR. He organized the publishing house «world literature», where he had the opportunity to work, thus having survived the famine, many writers of the time. To him belongs the merit of salvation from arrest, the death of intellectuals. Often in these Bitter years was the last hope of the persecuted by the new government.

In 1921 the writer has intensified tuberculosis, and he left for treatment in Germany and Czech Republic. Since 1924 lived in Italy. In 1928, 1931 Gorky visits to regions of Russia, including visited Solovki special purpose camp. In 1932 Gorky practically forced to return to Russia.

The last years of life of a seriously ill writer were, on the one hand, full of boundless praise – even when life bitter his native city Nizhny Novgorod was named after him, the writer lived in practical isolation under constant supervision.

Aleksei Maksimovich was married many times. The first time Catherine Pavlovna Volgenau. From this marriage had a daughter Catherine, deceased in infancy, and son, Maxim Alexeyevich Peshkov – the artist-lover. The son of Gorky died suddenly in 1934, which gave rise to the assumption of his violent death. Death the bitter two years later the same provoked such suspicions.

Second time married civil marriage to actress, the revolutionary Maria Fyodorovna Andreyeva. In fact, the third wife in the last years of his life the writer was a woman with a vibrant biography of Maria I. Budberg.

Died near Moscow in Gorki, in the same house where V. I. Lenin died. The ashes is in the Kremlin wall on red square. The brain of the writer was sent to Moscow Institute of the brain to learn.

That's all for today, thank you all and goodbye!

In Krasnoyarsk in June 2006, in celebration of the city Day, opened a sculptural composition “the Horse white”. Installed it in honor of Russian pioneers in Siberia on “Arrow” on the banks of the Yenisei. The composition is set on a historic site, where in 1628 he landed a detachment of Cossacks headed by Andrey Dubensky. The monument is an exact copy of the horse of Central Russian breed in full size. Height of about 1.5 meters, weight — 430 pounds.

Horse manufactured from wrought iron using traditional methods. Every element was forged separately and then welded with the other. The correct forms had been complied as accurately as possible, the organizers of the project invited the vet. Dispute left the color in which it was necessary to paint a horse. After much debate, the Cossack horse was silver.

Except for the horses in the composition of the present granite boulders, which are the attributes of a Cossack, a fountain in the form of a stream and the plaque with the text: “Упокоила войницу мать сыра-земля — Сибирь гордая неподатливая”.

According to one legend, it was here in the 17th century first landed Cossacks headed by Andrey Dubensky. The Governor got out on the shore of the Yenisei river on a horse, threw a stone sword, a whip and a hat, said, that in this place will build a city, and then went to inspect the area. The animal was left to rest and to wait for his master. This moment in history and immortalized in sculpture.

In my opinion this sculpture is a work of art. Actually this is one of my favorite monuments in Krasnoyarsk.

That's all for today. Read more reviews on my blog. Goodbye
