- a city in Russia, the administrative center of the Spassky municipal district of the Penza region.

Story

In 1648, a wild field was discovered in Meshchersky (Shatsky) district.
Since this land did not belong to anyone, it was transferred to the Novo-Spassky Monastery as an patrimony according to a charter. In 1663, the village of Bogdanovo was founded here. Its first settlers were monastery and runaway peasants. According to the 1669 census the population was 315. At the end of the 18th century, 3,005 people lived in Spassk, according to the first All-Russian census of 1897 - 6,439.

Around 1673, the village began to be called Bogdanovo-Spassky after the Church of the Savior located in it. In 1675, a bazaar opened here.

Bogdanovo-Spasskoye was located in the Kadomsky district until 1673, and in the Shatsky district of the Azov, then Voronezh province until 1779.

On September 16, 1779, the Tambov governorship was formed with 15 counties, including Spassky. By decree of Catherine II, the village was renamed the city of Spassk

.
At that time, there were already several cities in Russia with this name: in the Ryazan and Kazan provinces (and later, in 1917, Spassk-Dalny appeared in the Far East). A decree soon followed in which the name of the local river Studenets was added to the name of the district center of the Tambov governorship, and the city was called Spassky-on-Studenets
.

There were no industrial enterprises in Spassk. There were small semi-handicraft establishments: 7 breweries, 14 salotopes and 3 taverns.

1923 - Spassky district was transferred from the Tambov province to the Penza province and enlarged due to the Narovchatsky and Kerensky districts annexed to it. Its territory then amounted to 8,466.3 km².

In 1928, after the abolition of provinces and districts, Bednodemyanovsk

becomes the center of the Bednodemyanovsky district of the Mordovian district of the Middle Volga region. Since 1939, part of the Penza region.

Chapter 1 “In a wild field between two Liplyaevs”

This chapter will discuss the history of the settlement, which in the 18th century became the district town of Spassky. This has been written about repeatedly by different authors, but there are some discrepancies regarding the time of the settlement, the ownership of this land, and the origin of the name of the village. When the public local history museum was created, its organizers F.S. Davydkin, A.S. Miroshkin, with the financial support of the district authorities, requested documents from various archives of the country. Photocopies of the document on the allocation of land to the Novospassky Monastery were sent from the Russian State Archive of Ancient Acts (RGADA). But at that time, due to an incorrectly read text (cursive writing from the 18th century), inaccurate coverage of these events occurred, which resulted in the pages of the regional newspaper, and later books. Only in 2008, Doctor of Historical Sciences Alexey Vladimirovich Sirenov studied the text of this document and prepared it for publication. The essence of the matter is this. The history of the emergence of the city of Spassk is connected with the Novospassky Monastery of Moscow, founded in the 14th century. The monastery in Kozlovsky district had land, which in 1647 was needed for state needs. Soon the monastery found unoccupied land for itself in the Shatsky district of the Zamokshansky camp and turned to the king with a request to allocate this land to him. Boyar Gleb Ivanovich Morozov, brother of the then all-powerful boyar Boris Ivanovich Morozov, educator of the young Tsar Alexei Mikhailovich, joined the petition. The wife of Gleb Ivanovich was the famous schismatic Feodosia Prokopievna, depicted by the artist V. Surikov on the canvas “Boyaryna Morozova”. In 1654, the tsar sent a letter to Shatsk, in which he ordered that wasteland to be described, measured and reported to the Local Order, which was in charge of allocating land. But for some reason the land was not assigned to the Novospassky Monastery. 6 years later, the monastery, represented by “Archimandrite Joseph and cellarer Elder Gerasim and the brethren,” again turned to the Tsar with the same request and with the petition of G.I. Morozova. A royal letter was again sent to the governor Grigory Speshnev in Shatsk. According to the salary books, it turned out that the land in the area of ​​​​the village of Drakino was registered with Risanka (Ruzanka) Bogdanov, but in Porumbor (Mordovian Pimbur) there were no land owners. Zhdanka Bogdanov was also listed in the salary books, who owned land in the area of ​​the village of Potma (all named villages are now located on the territory of Mordovia) and rented it out to the Odlovsk Mordovians. The land that the monastery asked for, “a wild field lies later in the estate and patrimony and was not given to anyone for rent.” The boundaries of the land allocated to the monastery on the western and eastern sides ran along the Studenets and Sukhoi Liplyai rivers, on the northern side along the Partsa River, and on the southern side along the road connecting Narovchat and Kerensk. This road ran along the current border of the fields with. Dubrovki via Sheldais. The territory of the possessions of the mentioned Mordovians was located at a considerable distance. On October 11, 1662, the tsar’s letter ordered the Shatsk governor, now Pavel Khvostov, to send a nobleman and a clerk to measure the wasteland in a wild field. The choice fell on Ivashka Frolov, clerk of the hut, who measured the land, taking as witnesses “local and outside people, elders and kissers and peasants, how many people are suitable.” And on the “river on Parts, between two Liplyaev,” the clerk Ivashka Frolov with witnesses measured that land and measured “in the field for 200 quarters, and in two for the same, and hay cuttings for 400 kopecks, and palace estates and animal release and substitution of places." The entire field was 8 versts in length, 0.5 versts across on one side and 1 verst along the Partsa River. In the measuring book of Frolov Fr. This measurement was carried out in October and November with witnesses - clergy and peasants of the villages of Styazhkino, Ustye, Nikolskoye, Semivrazhki (all villages, except Ustye, are now located in the Republic of Mordovia). “And they, the Mordovians of the village of Drakina and the village of Porumbor, did not go to that wild field and did not show any fortresses and did not argue about that wild field in those tracts...” the clerk wrote in the document1. Ivashka Frolov most likely stopped in the village of Ust-Partsy, which had existed for about 12 years. It belonged to the landowners Lopatins, Rogozhins, Lachinovs. It is unlikely that Frolov and the priests of the surrounding villages measured the territory in autumn weather; most likely, the document was drawn up from the words of witnesses and signed by them “from the comfort of their hut.” This is confirmed by the fact that repeated measurements and land surveying showed completely different areas. On November 28, 1662, by royal decree, the measured land was granted to the Moscow Novospassky Monastery. Its representatives, having received the long-awaited document, assigned a clerk and servants to the new location, who chose a place for the future village at the “source” on an elevated area and named it Bogdanovo. “Istochina” is the Kaka (Kakova) river, the right tributary of Studenets, which flows into it at the village. Lipleyka. The dissonant name of the river translated from ancient Mordovian means “sedge, reed”. Here it should be said about the origin of the name of the new settlement. Of course, the servants of the monastery, who were here after the land was allocated, could not even imagine naming the village after the unknown to them from Potminsk Zhdanka Bogdanov, located 40 versts from this place. Of course, it is named Bogdanov after the Old Slavonic male name Bogdan, which means “given by God.” Monastic employees had to resolve many issues: the allocation and removal of timber to the huts and the monastery courtyard; identifying families to be resettled and removing them from villages belonging to the monastery; allocation of land for arable land, its cultivation and sowing; allocation of hayfields, pastures and much more. It must be said that by the time the village of Bogdanova was settled, some settlements in the Spassky Territory already existed. Within the territory of the current region, villages and hamlets along the Sheldais River were already populated, the villages of Abashevo and Ustye already existed, and in 1663 land was allocated on the site of today’s villages Lipyagi and Koshelevka. The land allocated to the monastery was in a place safe from nomadic tribes, because... in the southeast of the state, a serif line had already been built, passing through Kerensk, Verkhniy and Nizhny Lomov. In the spring of 1663, axes began to clatter: new huts were being cut for the first settlers. A monastery cell was built ahead of time, where the servants stayed, and then a monastery courtyard, in which the clerk lived. During the year, the monastery resettled 60 families in the village of Bogdanovo. Replenishment with new residents occurred later, but at a slower pace. At the same time, arable land was also developed to feed new settlers and livestock. By decree of the sovereign, Temnikov scribe Vladimir Novoseltsev and clerk Pyotr Zinoviev “were ordered to go to Meshchersky district in Zamokoshny (Zamokshansky) camp to the estate of the All-Merciful Savior of the New Monastery ... to register in the courtyards of peasants and peasants and their children and brothers and neighbors, neighbors and backbenchers, with fathers and from the nickname and from which estates those peasants and peasants from villages and hamlets were transferred to that land, and that land against the refuse books, arable land and hay and forest and all kinds of land, to describe and measure according to the order, which was the order given to them, the scribes, from the Kazan Order palace right into the truth, and that in that estate there will be peasant and bobyl households and people in them by name, and arable land and hay and forest and all sorts of land, and then everything was ordered to be written in books separately, and those census books were ordered to be sent to the great to the sovereign in the Local Order...” In this case, bobyli are peasants who do not own property (livestock, equipment, etc.), working as farm laborers. According to historian V.O. Klyuchevsky, the peasants who moved to the southeastern lands were poor. Landowners, in order to pay less taxes to the state, enlisted some of the peasants as bobyli (farmers), since in the 17th century they did not take taxes from them. The entire document on the population census and new land survey in the village of Bogdanov, “Extract from the books of Meshchersky district,” was first published in “Izvestia of the Tambov Scientific Archival Commission” in 1887 and reprinted in the book by N.I. Zabrodina “Notes of Local Lore” (pp. 122-139). The population census in August 1669 recorded 77 households in the village of Bogdanov, in which 315 people lived. Only males and a few widows who were heads of families were considered. The duty of the resettled residents was to plow the land allocated to the monastery, receive income from it, and send the necessary products to the monastery. The social composition of the village was heterogeneous. It consisted of peasants (34 households, 166 people), peasants (43 households, 149 people). The families were large, some of them numbered only 7-8 male representatives, among them nephews, brothers-in-law, and stepsons of the owner, since only strong male hands could raise virgin soil. The so-called neighbors, i.e., also settled in a number of courtyards. families that did not have their own yard, but helped the main owner. This arrangement existed in order to pay less taxes, since taxes were taken from the “smoke”, i.e. from the hut. Finally, there was one beggar, Makeika Yakimov, who “feeds on the name of Christ,” and a lonely, Russified Swede, Yakushka Ievlev, who was a neighbor in the Bobyl family. The new residents of the village of Bogdanova were transported by the monastery mainly from the village of Zakolpya, Vladimir district, with numerous villages, and many peasants and peasants ended up in these villages from exile. In particular, several families fled to Zakolpie from the village of Ust-Partsy from the landowners Lopatins and Shmakovs, from the village of Fedorovka in Verkhnelomovsky district from the landowner Fyodor Meshcherinov. There were fugitives from Shatsky, Nizhnelomovsky, Saransky, Alatyrsky, Temnikovsky and other districts. Peasants and peasants fled both from the landowners and from state-owned villages. The peasants tried to get into the monastic villages, since at that time the monasteries could not tax the peasants more than what was required by law. Only some of the monasteries, upon petition to the sovereign, could change the existing taxation order. Despite the strict punishments for sheltering fugitives, the monastery, apparently, was not afraid of this, relocating the Ustinsky peasants (12 households) to the village of Bogdanovo, next to their former place of residence. In total, runaway peasants and peasants made up 35 households. By 1669, there were already two monastic villages: Deryabkino, where there were 55 courtyards, and Khomutovka, which had 1 monastery courtyard, i.e. the village was just being populated. It was inhabited by people from the village of Khomutovki, Kozlovsky district, the young inhabitants of which were converted by the state into dragoons, and the rest were transported to monastic villages and villages of the Vladimir district, later resettled to new places. It was they who founded the village of Khomutovka, calling it by its former name. There was no timber in the allotted territory, so a special order ordered the monastery to “enter the large Vodovskaya and Chuuskoi and Olanbor forests for the mansion and firewood forest with the Mordovians of the village of Zarubkina and the village of Glushkov, and cut down the mansion and firewood forest for them, peasants and peasants, remove the side trees." For huts and firewood, the monastery residents cut down forest in the area of ​​the villages of Barancheevka, Chiush-Kamenka, and Tatar Sheldais (Lyambur). A mill was built on the Studenets (Wet Lipljai) River. In the village of Bogdanov, which later became known as Spasskoe after the temple, a wooden Church of the Transfiguration of the Savior was built. Fortunately, its description has been preserved2. The church was most likely cut down in 1663-1664. The church clergy was composed of priest Timofey Ivanov, sexton Arseny Fedorov, mallow maker Pelageitsa Semenova, sexton Vasily Abramov. The temple and the clergy were allocated 20 quarters of land in three fields, 30 kopecks of hay hay. The surveyors described in detail the boundaries of the monastery's possessions, as well as their neighbors: landowners of the villages of Ust-Partsy, Lipyagov and Koshelevki, the Tatars of the village of Sheldais (Lyambur), the Mordovians of the villages of Mordovian Pimbur and Russian Pimbur. The document mentions roads leading from Kerensk to Temnikov and Shatsk, from Narovchat to Kerensk. We bring to your attention fragments of a document that highlights the history of the emergence of the village of Bogdanova. Reading it requires some attention and even patience. But the reader can learn about the nature of the style of documents of the 17th century. An obedient letter from Tsar Alexei Mikhailovich to the peasants of the village of Bogdanovo and its villages about the jurisdiction of their authorities of the Moscow Novospassky Monastery. May 12, 7182 (1674) From the Tsar and Grand Duke Alexei Mikhailovich of all Great and Lesser and White Russia, the autocrat in the Shatsk district in the Zamokoshskaya camp on the Wild Field along the river along Partsa between two Liplyaev up to Polumboru and to the Liplyaevsky peaks and to the river to Polumbor to the village of Bogdanovo to the village of Deryapkino on Gremyachiy Stream, to the village of Khomutovka on the Partse River to all the peasants who live in that village and in the villages and will henceforth learn to live on that Wild Field in those tracts.

And now they have found in the Meshchersky district in the Zamoskovsky camp, in the open lands of the wastelands, a Wild Field on the river on Parts between two Liplyaevs up to Polumbor and to the Leplyaevsky peaks, which the boyar Gleb Ivanovich Morozov beat with his forehead to us, the great sovereign, about that Wild Field. And that wasteland, the Wild Field, lies apart and has not been given to anyone and is not assigned to any lands. And we, the great sovereign, would welcome them, order that wasteland Wild Field to be given to the house of the All-Merciful Savior as a patrimony instead of their taken residential patrimony of the village of Dobroye Gorodishche from the village.

And according to the investigation, that wasteland Wild Field will be on an estate and not given to anyone as a quitrent and not sold as an estate and not assigned to any other lands or Mordovian villages, and that wasteland Wild Field will be ordered to be described and measured in tithes, and the search and send measuring books to the Crossbreeding Order.

Yes, in the year 169, our great sovereign sent a letter in Shatskaya to the governor to Grigory to Speshnev at the request of the boyar Gleb Ivanovich Morozov, and he was ordered to find the Wild Field about the same wasteland and measure it according to the search, and send the search and measuring books in the Local Order.

Written in Moscow of the 7182th Maia on the 12th day. The document gives abundant food for thought. It should be noted that it is dated to the chronology "from the creation of the world." The beginning of the year in the XVII century was in September (before Peter I), therefore, in order to transfer to modern chronology, it is necessary to add the number 7, for example 7156, etc., and take away 5508 to the mentioned three numbers in the text of the year, and take away from this figure, and take away from this figure, If events took place in January-August, or 5509 in September-December. The document allows you to find out the administrative affiliation of the village. At first it was Meshchersky district, Zamoskovsky camp, later - Shatsky district, Pokokshansky camp. The Mordovian villages of Dokino, Vosadalovo, Potma, which were mentioned in the document, then belonged to the Kerensky district. Mordovian male names are interesting (rice, Zhdanka, Eleza, Moskalka, Baisco and others), as well as the size of the germ. For 5 quarters of the plowman of land (about 7.5 acres - 8.2 hectares) and 50 crooks of hay (about 5 acres), the muzzle paid in 1663 a fragment and duties of 4 altyn with a money, i.e., 12.5 kopecks. The area of ​​the land allotted by the monastery in the current calculus was about 6 thousand hectares, from it by 1669 more than 1 thousand hectares of the Land were plowed. The mentioned "Lyopyaevsky peaks" are the sources of the rivers of dry and wet lipyas, the left tributaries of the river. Parians. Another name is wet - a student. When surveying between the Novospassian and Novodevichy (s. Dubrovka) monasteries and possessions of the clerk Artemy Kozlov (village Kozlovka) were disputes along the boundary line. It has not yet been established whether they were resolved peacefully or there was a lawsuit that the light would be shed at the time of the founding of the village of Dubrovka. In the XVII century, the peasants had no surnames and were written by the name of the fathers, so it is difficult to conclude whether the descendants of the first settlers were preserved in the city. However, the scribes were given the task of finding out the nicknames (or street names) of families, which later became surnames. Among the peasants were Lomakins, Lopyrev, Voronov, Tolkunovs, Vorobyov, Budycins, Kiselev, Kurbatovs, Destovs, Butler and others. It is not known whether the current residents by the name of Lomakina have a direct relation to those peasants, but in the 19th century Lomakin participated in the "Vinn Riot". In the XVII century, the peasants lived here, in the 19th century, the Old Believers of the butler lived in Spassk, and in 1926 an employee of the orphanage led the windshord orchestra and led a circle of fine art. The village was at the intersection of many roads, actively developed, and trading was established in 1675. Archimandrite of the Novospassky Monastery Makarii beat the king Tsar Alexei Mikhailovich about the opening of a weekly bargain in the village for the purchase of all kinds of goods. He explained to the sovereign that the nearest cities of Shatsk, Kadom, Lomov were distant from the new estate, and to buy food and salt in those cities to the peasants in the business season, "The peshopot was repaired in the driveways." Interests are of goods in goods in the last quarter of the XVII century. 4 pounds of flour (pood - 16.38 kg) cost 30 kopecks.; Pood of cow oil - 60 kopecks., Four -year -old bull - 1 ruble, sheepskin coat - 40 kopecks, sheep - 18 kopecks, shirt and ports - 12 kopecks, 100 three -pounded (6 m) logs, 13 boards and 100 nails cost 7 rubles . The main monetary unit was a penny and its part: money - 0.5 kopecks., Pisoshka - ¼ kopecks., Altyn - 3 kopecks, hryvnia - 10 kopecks., Poltina - 50 kopecks, half -sex - 25 kopecks. In August 1675, a tsarist letter was signed, which pointed out: “... In the estate that they built on the wild field the village of Bogdanovo to be auction and trade all kinds of goods, to oppose wine and tobacco ... And trade for two days, on Tuesday and Saturday, on Saturday, on Saturday, And the customs fee from all sorts of corrupt goods and from bread, and from salt, and from horses, and from any cattle, and from shops, and from the onbar, a quitter from all kinds of officials of people to choose to the monastery. ” The opening of the bargain and the collection of duties were the main task of the monastery authorities. In a letter of complaint, it was explained that no one has the right to trade in the village without the permission of the monastery, and the Tselniki and the faithful heads did not have the right to take the customs fees from the sellers, and they did not just have the right - they threatened them cruel for that punishment. Alexey Mikhailovich favored the church hierarchs, and they actively used it. The monastery had a decent income from the trading institution. The king signed an obedient letter to all the peasants living on the monastery land, that they were “the Savior of the New Monastery of the authorities, Archimandrite Joseph and Kelar Barlam Bokin with the brother ... Listened, they plowed the arable land and they paid the monastery’s income.” After 3 years, the population of the village was rewritten again. There are already 131 yards and 450 male people. In addition, there were still 4 courtyards belonging to the Konyukhovs, 16 courtyards of monastery cubs, in which 46 people lived, and the service 2 yards, they have 7 male people. Only 153 yards, 507 male residents4. So, the chronology of events on the allocation of the Earth to the Novospassky monastery is as follows: 1647 the monastery lost land in the Kozlovsky district and after a while turned to the king with a request to allocate unoccupied land in the Shatsky district. The boyar Gleb Ivanovich Morozov joined the petition. 1654, King Alexei Mikhailovich was sent to Shatsk a letter, in which the wasteland chosen by the monastery was commanded to describe and measure. 1661 The re -tsarist letter in Shatsk to the governor Grigory Speshnev according to the petition of the boyar G.I. Morozova about the measurement of the wasteland. On October 11, 1662, the royal letter was again sent to the Shatsky district of the governor Pavel Khvostov at the next request of the monastery. It was ordered to send a nobleman and a daring to measure an empty field and refuse his monastery to the estate. October-November 1662 was sent by a congress of the hut, the clergy Ivashka Frolov, who measured the land “200 quarters in the field A in two more”, i.e. Only 600 quarters with sown mowing and grazing for livestock. The document on the award of the land was signed by the sovereign on November 28, 1662. On July 22, 1665, the monastery again addresses the tsar with a request to dissolve the allocated land from neighboring estate and local land, so that henceforth there are no complaints about this land, and describe peasants and beavers. On October 12, 1668, the royal letter in the Temnikov to the scribes Vladimir Novosiltsev and the lifting of Peter Zinoviev, in which it is ordered to rewrite yards and the entire population, measure the land in tithes and dissolve. 21 August 1669, Vladimir Novosiltsev and Peter Zinoviev, more accurately measured the monastery land: 680 quarters in the field, a move and forest 1333 quarters with a trembling, harsan pile 38,600 kopecks. Only 2013 quarters - 343 quarters more than it was in Kozlovsky district. 1670 The Novospassky Monastery was given a discharge from measured books. 1674 The monastery addresses the king with a request to write an obedient letter to all the peasants living on monastery land, which was done. June 19, 1675, the final design of the royal complained letter.

Renaming

The district party conference held on April 19-20, 1925 decided to rename the city of Spassk to Bednodemyanovsk

in honor of the poet Demyan Bedny (1883-1945). The poet himself did not visit here, but, nevertheless, he carried on a lively correspondence with the workers. On September 18, 1925, the All-Russian Central Executive Committee, signed by M.I. Kalinin, adopted a resolution to rename Spassk, Penza province, into the city of Bednodemyanovsk, and, accordingly, the volost and district.

On October 13, 2005, Russian President Vladimir Putin signed the federal law “On the renaming of the city of Bednodemyanovsk, Bednodemyanovsk district, Penza region, into the city of Spassk.” The law was adopted by the State Duma on September 21, 2005 and approved by the Federation Council on October 5, 2005. Bednodemyanovsky district was also renamed Spassky.

The Church of the Ascension of the Lord, which is architecturally a four-pillar, five-domed church in the Russian-Byzantine style with a refectory and a multi-tiered bell tower, was built in 1841-1859 with the money of merchants V.V. Bundikov and N.G. Makov. It has the Predtechensky and Nikolsky side chapels and the Kazan Mother of God and St. Basil the Great in the refectory.

An excerpt characterizing Spassk (Penza region)

“It was Sonya before,” thought Nikolai. He looked at her closer and smiled. – What are you, Nicholas? “Nothing,” he said and turned back to the horses. Having arrived on a rough, large road, oiled with runners and all covered with traces of thorns, visible in the light of the moon, the horses themselves began to tighten the reins and speed up. The left one, bending its head, twitched its lines in jumps. The root swayed, moving its ears, as if asking: “should we start or is it too early?” – Ahead, already far away and ringing like a thick bell receding, Zakhar’s black troika was clearly visible on the white snow. Shouting and laughter and the voices of those dressed up were heard from his sleigh. “Well, you dear ones,” Nikolai shouted, tugging on the reins on one side and withdrawing his hand with the whip. And only by the wind that had become stronger, as if to meet it, and by the twitching of the fasteners, which were tightening and increasing their speed, was it noticeable how fast the troika flew. Nikolai looked back. Screaming and screaming, waving whips and forcing the indigenous people to jump, the other troikas kept pace. The root steadfastly swayed under the arc, not thinking of knocking it down and promising to push it again and again when necessary. Nikolai caught up with the top three. They drove down some mountain and onto a widely traveled road through a meadow near a river. “Where are we going?” thought Nikolai. - “It should be along a slanting meadow. But no, this is something new that I have never seen. This is not a slanting meadow or Demkina Mountain, but God knows what it is! This is something new and magical. Well, whatever it is!” And he, shouting at the horses, began to go around the first three. Zakhar reined in the horses and turned around his face, which was already frozen to the eyebrows. Nikolai started his horses; Zakhar, stretching his arms forward, smacked his lips and let his people go. “Well, hold on, master,” he said. “The troikas flew even faster nearby, and the legs of the galloping horses quickly changed. Nikolai began to take the lead. Zakhar, without changing the position of his outstretched arms, raised one hand with the reins. “You’re lying, master,” he shouted to Nikolai. Nikolai galloped all the horses and overtook Zakhar. The horses covered the faces of their riders with fine, dry snow, and near them there was the sound of frequent rumblings and the tangling of fast-moving legs and the shadows of the overtaking troika. The whistling of runners through the snow and women's squeals were heard from different directions. Stopping the horses again, Nikolai looked around him. All around was the same magical plain soaked through with moonlight with stars scattered across it. “Zakhar shouts for me to take a left; why go left? thought Nikolai. Are we going to the Melyukovs, is this Melyukovka? God knows where we are going, and God knows what is happening to us - and it is very strange and good what is happening to us.” He looked back at the sleigh. “Look, he has a mustache and eyelashes, everything is white,” said one of the strange, pretty and alien people with a thin mustache and eyebrows. “This one, it seems, was Natasha,” thought Nikolai, and this one is m me Schoss; or maybe not, but I don’t know who this Circassian with the mustache is, but I love her.” -Aren't you cold? - he asked. They did not answer and laughed. Dimmler shouted something from the back sleigh, probably funny, but it was impossible to hear what he was shouting. “Yes, yes,” the voices answered laughing. - However, here is some kind of magical forest with shimmering black shadows and sparkles of diamonds and with some kind of enfilade of marble steps, and some kind of silver roofs of magical buildings, and the piercing squeal of some animals. “And if this really is Melyukovka, then it’s even stranger that we were traveling God knows where, and came to Melyukovka,” thought Nikolai. Indeed, it was Melyukovka, and girls and lackeys with candles and joyful faces ran out to the entrance. - Who it? - they asked from the entrance. “The counts are dressed up, I can see it by the horses,” answered the voices. Pelageya Danilovna Melyukova, a broad, energetic woman, wearing glasses and a swinging hood, was sitting in the living room, surrounded by her daughters, whom she tried not to let get bored. They were quietly pouring wax and looking at the shadows of the emerging figures when the footsteps and voices of visitors began to rustle in the hall. Hussars, ladies, witches, payassas, bears, clearing their throats and wiping their frost-covered faces in the hallway, entered the hall, where candles were hastily lit. The clown - Dimmler and the lady - Nikolai opened the dance. Surrounded by screaming children, the mummers, covering their faces and changing their voices, bowed to the hostess and positioned themselves around the room. - Oh, it’s impossible to find out! And Natasha! Look who she looks like! Really, it reminds me of someone. Eduard Karlych is so good! I didn't recognize it. Yes, how she dances! Oh, fathers, and some kind of Circassian; right, how it suits Sonyushka. Who else is this? Well, they consoled me! Take the tables, Nikita, Vanya. And we sat so quietly! - Ha ha ha!... Hussar this, hussar that! Just like a boy, and his legs!... I can’t see... - voices were heard. Natasha, the favorite of the young Melyukovs, disappeared with them into the back rooms, where they needed cork and various dressing gowns and men's dresses, which through the open door received the naked girlish hands from the footman. Ten minutes later, all the youth of the Melyukov family joined the mummers. Pelageya Danilovna, having ordered the clearing of the place for the guests and refreshments for the gentlemen and servants, without taking off her glasses, with a restrained smile, walked among the mummers, looking closely into their faces and not recognizing anyone. Not only did she not recognize the Rostovs and Dimmler, but she also could not recognize either her daughters or her husband’s robes and uniforms that they were wearing. -Whose is this? - she said, turning to her governess and looking into the face of her daughter, who represented the Kazan Tatar. - It seems like someone from Rostov. Well, Mr. Hussar, what regiment do you serve in? – she asked Natasha. “Give the Turk, give the Turk some marshmallows,” she said to the bartender who was serving them: “this is not prohibited by their law.” Sometimes, looking at the strange but funny steps performed by the dancers, who had decided once and for all that they were dressed up, that no one would recognize them and therefore were not embarrassed, Pelageya Danilovna covered herself with a scarf, and her entire corpulent body shook from the uncontrollable, kind, old lady’s laughter . - Sashinet is mine, Sashinet is that! - she said. After Russian dances and round dances, Pelageya Danilovna united all the servants and gentlemen together, in one large circle; They brought a ring, a string and a ruble, and general games were arranged. An hour later, all the suits were wrinkled and upset. Cork mustaches and eyebrows were smeared across sweaty, flushed and cheerful faces. Pelageya Danilovna began to recognize the mummers, admired how well the costumes were made, how they suited especially the young ladies, and thanked everyone for making her so happy. The guests were invited to dine in the living room, and the courtyard was served in the hall. - No, guessing in the bathhouse, that’s scary! - said the old girl who lived with the Melyukovs at dinner. - From what? – asked the eldest daughter of the Melyukovs. “Don’t go, it takes courage...” “I’ll go,” said Sonya. - Tell me, how was it with the young lady? - said the second Melyukova. “Yes, just like that, one young lady went,” said the old girl, “she took a rooster, two utensils, and sat down properly.” She sat there, just heard, suddenly she was driving... with bells, with bells, a sleigh drove up; hears, comes. He comes in completely in human form, like an officer, he came and sat down with her at the device. - A! Ah!...” Natasha screamed, rolling her eyes in horror. - How can he say that? - Yes, as a person, everything is as it should be, and he began and began to persuade, and she should have occupied him with conversation until the roosters; and she became shy; – she just became shy and covered herself with her hands. He picked it up. It’s good that the girls came running... - Well, why scare them! - said Pelageya Danilovna. “Mother, you yourself were guessing...” said the daughter. - How do they tell fortunes in the barn? – asked Sonya. - Well, at least now, they’ll go to the barn and listen. What will you hear: hammering, knocking - bad, but pouring bread - this is good; otherwise it happens... - Mom, tell me what happened to you in the barn? Pelageya Danilovna smiled. “Oh, well, I forgot…” she said. - You won’t go, will you? - No, I'll go; Pepageya Danilovna, let me in, I’ll go,” said Sonya. - Well, if you're not afraid. - Luiza Ivanovna, may I? – asked Sonya. Whether they were playing ring, string or ruble, or talking, as now, Nikolai did not leave Sonya and looked at her with completely new eyes. It seemed to him that today, only for the first time, thanks to that corky mustache, he fully recognized her. Sonya really was cheerful, lively and beautiful that evening, like Nikolai had never seen her before. “So that’s what she is, and I’m a fool!” he thought, looking at her sparkling eyes and her happy, enthusiastic smile, making dimples on her cheeks from under her mustache, a smile that he had never seen before. “I’m not afraid of anything,” said Sonya. - Can I do it now? - She stood up. They told Sonya where the barn was, how she could stand silently and listen, and they gave her a fur coat. She threw it over her head and looked at Nikolai.

Sights of the city of Spassk (Penza region)

In recent years, the Penza region has been increasingly developing as a tourist region.
Moreover, we have everything necessary for this. First of all, of course, there are a large number of places of interest. During the years of perestroika, many of them fell into disrepair, but today the regional authorities are doing everything to bring cultural and architectural monuments into proper condition. The necessary infrastructure is also being developed: access roads, hotels, motels, etc. The paradox of the situation, however, is that almost more is known about this outside the region than in Penza itself. We still have the opinion that in order to have an interesting vacation or weekend, you need to go somewhere. Many Penzyak residents know the tourist routes of Crimea or Abkhazia much better than those at home. To correct this injustice, we are publishing today a list of attractions in the Penza region.
