Historical facts

Natural attractions of the Krasnodar region
At a place located 80 km from Krasnodar, 27 km from Maykop, there was a Circassian settlement called Shithala (“Drowning Horses”). In 1862, they built a fortress, next to which three Cossack villages were formed (Pshekhskaya, Belorechenskaya, Gurianskaya).

The good climatic conditions of the interfluve valley (the Laba and Belaya rivers) and the characteristics of the hardworking population made it possible to make them rich and attract new residents.

The emerging railway (Armavir-Tuapse) contributed to the development of local settlements.

In 1924, the settlement acquired the status of a city, a regional center. The legal name of the city of Belorechensk was born in May 1958.

In 1979, it began to be classified as a city of regional subordination. It has a new hydroelectric power station, plants and factories have been built, and a convenient infrastructure has been created for city residents. Conditions for recreation have been created in numerous parks; shops and cafes are located on the streets (their number is the largest per number of inhabitants among the cities of the Krasnodar Territory).

Position

Why is the city of Belorechensk (Krasnodar Territory) so attractive to people? Reviews from Muscovites who moved here are related to its unique location. It is located between the Belaya and Laba rivers, in a fertile valley of the North Caucasus mountain range.

In the 19th century, the Kuban Cossacks built a fortress here and founded the villages of Guriyskaya, Belorechenskaya, and Pshekhskaya. What is currently attractive for living in the city of Belorechensk (Krasnodar Territory)? Feedback from citizens who moved here agree that this area has many resources that allow them to conduct their own agriculture.

It was the rich natural resources that contributed to the rapid development of the region. In just a few years, a fortress was built here to protect the settlement from enemy invasion. And now the villages are constantly growing; the city of Belorechensk (Krasnodar Territory) has also increased significantly over the years. Reviews from people who have moved for permanent residence from other regions agree that living here is much more comfortable and cheaper than in the capital.

The capital of the Altai region, Barnaul: description of the city, population, attractions

Holy Intercession Church

In 1863, through the diligence of parishioners, a prayer house was opened in the village. In 1881, with an allowance from the Kuban Cossack Army of 10,000 rubles, with the addition of funds from parishioners, a wooden Intercession Church with a bell tower was built in the village on a stone foundation. Consecrated on September 20, 1881. As of 1910, the clergy consisted of 2 priests, 1 deacon, 2 psalm-readers. The area of ​​the clergy land is 172.5 dessiatines. The first priest was paid 200 rubles 70 kopecks as a military salary, psalm-readers 51 rubles 42 kopecks. At the temple there were one-class and two-class ministerial schools, men's and women's parochial schools, located in their own brick buildings. In 1934, the church building, located on the territory of modern Victory Park, was blown up.

In memory of the first village church, the Holy Protection parish was revived in Belorechensk in 1995. In 1997, by decision of the city Council of Deputies, the building of the children's cinema "Yunost", located on 60 Let VLKSM Street (now Shalimova Street), was transferred to the parish community for free use as a church. With the blessing of Metropolitan Isidore of Kuban and Ekaterinodar, in 2000 the temple was completely reconstructed and crowned with a golden dome.

Holy Dormition Church

Holy Dormition Church

In 1892, with an allowance from the Holy Synod of 3,000 rubles, the United Faith Assumption Church, wooden on a stone foundation, was built. Consecrated on November 1, 1892. In 1905, 2 side-chapels were added. As of 1910, the clergy consisted of 1 priest and 1 psalm-reader. The area of ​​the clergy land is 60 acres. The Synodal salary for the priest is 300 rubles, for the psalm-reader 120 rubles. The church had a literacy school located in a separate brick building. The church ceased to exist in the 1920s and 1930s. The first location of the temple remains unknown.

During the Great Patriotic War, the Holy Dormition Church resumed its existence, located in one of the private houses on Klubnaya Street (later 60 Let Komsomol Street, now Shalimova Street). The Holy Intercession Church in the village of Chernigov donated a throne, an altar, church utensils, and liturgical books to the temple.

In 1955, the church moved to a house on Tolstoy Street, purchased with funds from believers. For several decades, parishioners carried out repair and construction work, the area of ​​the temple was expanded, and in 1986 the adobe walls were lined with bricks. In 2008-2010, with the blessing of Metropolitan Isidore of Kuban and Ekaterinodar, the temple was completely reconstructed.

Currently, the colorful Church of the Assumption of the Blessed Virgin Mary is one of the main attractions of Belorechensk.

Armenian Apostolic Church

On June 6, 2015, on the memorable Day of the extraction of St. Gregory the Illuminator from the ditch (Khor Virap), the Armenian Apostolic Church of Gregory the Illuminator was opened in Belorechensk. A day earlier, the consecration of the interior of the church took place.

At the opening ceremony, the head of the diocese of the South of Russia of the Armenian Apostolic Church, Bishop Movses Movsesyan, as well as the clergy of the diocese and the rectors of existing Armenian churches in the Krasnodar region were met at the open gates of the church by the main philanthropist of the church Engels Palyan, the chairman of the Church-Parish Council Gevorg Paronyan and the chairman of the local branch of the Union of Armenians of Russia Ruben Madelyan.

The Church of Gregory the Illuminator was built according to strict Armenian Christian canons: interior design, church decoration and church area. The sculptural volumes of the temple are based on the traditions of classical Armenian architecture. The church building is located on a stylobate, which is a traditional stone foundation characteristic of church architecture in Armenia. In the interior painting of the church, the traditional canons and national color of the design of the Armenian church are preserved.

On the territory of the church there is a memorial in honor of the 100th anniversary of the Armenian genocide, depicted in the form of a grieving woman with a baby in her arms, as well as busts of the national hero of Armenia Andranik Ozanyan and the Russian commander Ivan Paskevich.

Historical sights: architecture in Belorechensk

The history of Belorechensk is imprinted not only in sculptures, but also in ancient buildings, which are architectural monuments and the historical heritage of the city.

Visiting house of merchant I.V. Ikonnikova

Address: Krasnaya street, 65.

In 1907, in the village of Belorechenskaya, merchant Ivan Vasilyevich Ikonnikov built a visiting house - a hotel. The brick building in the style of Russian architecture, decorated with openwork platbands, semi-columns and a jagged frieze, has become a real decoration of the village.

Despite being a hundred years old, the guest house is in excellent condition. Currently it houses a children's music school.

School building No. 1 named after M.I. Kalinina

Address: st. 40 Let October, 29.

School No. 1 is located in a brick building built in 1911. Its historical value lies in the fact that it was here that Mikhail Ivanovich Kalinin gave a speech in 1921. On the school grounds, the politician organized a rally to resolve the issue of grain procurement. Since then, the school began to be called after Kalinin.

In 1942, during the fascist occupation, the building was burned and stood in ruins for a long time.

In 1953, the building was completely rebuilt. The updated version is a two-story building in a pseudo-Russian style.
