The streets will tell you

Great is the world, great is our country. And each of us has one house. The small homeland is the closest, most immediate. Kulunda is a land of lakes and mysterious swamps, where the lands of Western Siberia, Altai and Kazakhstan meet. It was here that a settlement arose in the future, which became the city of Kupino, where we live. In the old days our region was wild, harsh and poor. Life was not easy for ordinary people. But Siberia has long attracted people with its open spaces and endless areas for arable land and livestock breeding. Fleeing from the oppression of the landowners of Russia and the lack of land, the peasants, at their own peril and risk, set off from the central provinces of the country to the east in search of favorable living conditions.

This is how it all began

Old street of the city of Kupino.jpg
The history of Kupino goes back 123 years. It was started by walkers from the Kursk province who were looking for a good life. They took a fancy to these places and settled on the estate of a wealthy Zyatkovsky peasant. Lake Mokhovoy, on the shores of which the first huts of the settlers were built, gave our city its first name: the settlement of Mokhovoy, the village of Mokhovaya, the village of Mokhovushka. Construction of the future city began along the lake, on the site of the current Naberezhnaya Street. The first two streets were founded on the mane: Shakhterskaya and Tambovskaya. By 1917, the main streets in Kupino were: Khersonskaya (now Lenin Street), Khokhlatskaya (Sadovaya), Zabytovka (K. Marx).

We invite you to travel together through the streets and squares of our city, look into mysterious corners, and relax on benches in the city park.

The station is the face of the city

We will start our journey around the city from the station.

The station is the first thing that guests who come to us see, and it is the face of the city. Our railway station building was rebuilt in 2002. Now it is two-story, and consists of a lot of marble and mirrors.

On the platform, everyone can see a steam locomotive standing on a pedestal. He is a symbol of a bygone era. It was this locomotive that first arrived in Kupino on August 6, 1915 along the new Tatarsk - Raspberry Lake railway line, built by the Nekhoroshev joint-stock company. The first train consisted of 6 cars: two passenger and four freight. The train was greeted by residents of Kupino and surrounding villages, who specially arrived to watch the “cast iron” run. He approached the station through a special arch decorated with flowers. This “moment” was saved by the photo. In honor of this event, a prayer service was organized by priest Evgeny Krylov.

Everyone who comes to our city passes by soldiers and women frozen forever, personifying the defenders of our Motherland during the Great Patriotic War. Behind the monument there is a stele with the names of residents of the Kupinsky district who died in the war. The memorial complex “To the Heroes of the Front and Rear” was opened on November 7, 1978.

Turning past the railway club, you involuntarily stop in front of a large house. It reeks of history. Once upon a time, when Kupino was very young, this was the best and tallest building. Due to its great height, people nicknamed it “London”. At one time (since 1933) the railway school No. 105 (the first secondary school in the city) was located here. Now, after restoration, this apartment building has found a second youth and looks out onto Sovetov Street with wide-open windows.

Along the main street

We go out onto the main street of the city - st. Soviets. Its length is about seven kilometers. This is the longest and greenest street, it divides the entire city in half. We take a leisurely stroll along the sidewalk, sheltered from the scorching sun by old poplars, towards the center. The city of Kupino is a regional center, the buildings and structures of regional institutions, the monument to Lenin, are also part of it and carry their share of the aesthetic load in the appearance of the city. We also have our own “White House” - the administration building. The Russian flag flies proudly above it. And recently an electronic display with a clock and weather was installed on the plinth. In June 2007, a significant event took place - the opening of a fountain in the central recreation park. Now you can admire the splashes of water shimmering in the sun, make appointments with friends, throw coins and make a wish. Nearby, children ride on swings and carousels. Imperceptibly we find ourselves on the Embankment, stretching along the lake. Old-timers said that the lake. Mokhovoye at the beginning of the 1900s was deep - 2.5 arshins, with an area of ​​16 dessiatines. Everyone, young and old, swam, caught crucian carp, and in winter there was a skating rink. There was a birch forest all around, where the settlers built huts: plastic and wicker huts lined with straw. Unfortunately, neither the houses nor the lake have survived.

"Lighthouse in the steppe"

Tens of kilometers away you can see the 70-meter elevator tower and the powerful buildings standing nearby. The grain growers called this giant “a lighthouse in the steppe,” and the Kupinians drew its silhouette on the city’s emblem. There is no other elevator like this in the entire Kulunda zone. It was built in 1959.

Sometimes you walk around the city and think: nowhere else are there such streets, such trees. In other places, the sun shines differently, and you won’t see so many familiar faces.

There are many glorious deeds in the history of our city: the fight against the Kolchakites, courage and hard work during the Great Patriotic War, the development of virgin lands. The history of our city, like any history, was created by people.

Hospital town

At the beginning of the twentieth century, an enthusiastic doctor, Vladimir Nikolaevich Rossov, came to our city. On his initiative, construction of a resettlement hospital began. Three years later it was built, and so thoroughly that its building has survived to this day. On the plinth you can read the date of construction - 1911. It was an unusual hospital for those times: spacious, with large, bright windows. There was a lot of air and light in it. Residents of not only Kupinskaya, but also neighboring volosts received medical care. Now the building of the first hospital in our city is protected by the state as an architectural monument. Time does not stand still. Over the past few years, extensive construction has been carried out on the hospital campus. The surgical, therapeutic, otolaryngological departments, clinic and maternity hospital were combined into one building. And now, patients who come to the hospital for treatment do not need to go outside until they are diagnosed and treated. It is interesting and a little mysterious to wander through the labyrinths of hospital corridors.

Old center

Our city also has its own Red Square, located in the Old Center. Now it is increasingly called the ring road. It was here in 1909 that headman Stefan Kupin, at a gathering of peasants, proposed renaming Mokhovoe to Kupino in order to preserve the memory of his distant native village of Kupino, Kupinskaya volost, Korochinsky district of Kursk province. It is curious that the village from which the first settlers came has survived to this day, and is now part of the Belgorod region.

The music school, which began its history in 1955, is comfortably located in the old center.

And next to it is a monument to those who died during the hard years of the civil war. Let's take a photo for memory and move on. Shops, pharmacies, hairdressers.

And finally, a majestic, bright church with golden domes rises before our eyes. It stands out grandiosely among the modern buildings surrounding it. The domes of the temple have become not just an incomparable decoration of our city, they remind us of the eternal, as if they are telling each of us: don’t fuss, do good, create beauty, beauty awakens humanity, beauty helps to live... The new temple is the fruit of the labors of Hieromonk Melchizedek, parishioners and ordinary residents .

Krylov E. - the first priest.jpg Initially, the Church of the Holy Apostle-Evangelist Luke was built according to the design of the political exile A. Bobovnitsina in 1903. The first priest was Father Evgeny Krylov, a true ascetic who did a lot for his volost. In subsequent years, the church building housed a grain warehouse, a flight school, a music school, and a house of pioneers. In 2000, after long restoration work, on the Feast of the First Savior, on the Day of the Baptism of Rus', the temple was reopened and the first religious procession took place. The small building of the parish school, built in the year the church was founded, is also classified as an architectural monument. This was the very first Kupino school. It taught up to thirty peasant children in 2nd grade. Both buildings - churches and schools - are part of the historical and cultural heritage of the city of Kupino.

Here we briefly got acquainted with our beloved, hometown of Kupino. Our city is a hard worker, tireless and ageless. The older he gets, the younger he is...

It is dear to us today, and the glory of past years, and the memory of relatives and friends who lived here and invested their labor in the prosperity of their native corner. We are waiting for everyone to visit.
