Attractions in Mytishchi
Sculpture of Ole Lukoje
This attraction in Mytishchi was officially opened in 2006 in the park of the Ognivo puppet theater. The theater building was thoroughly renovated in 2004, and today, looking at it, the thought of a fairy-tale castle comes to mind.
The sculpture Ole Lukoje in the city of Mytishchi serves as a fountain, located next to the theater. Water streams flow down the umbrella, falling directly into the stone bowl.
According to the idea and description of the author himself, Andersen, the character is a friendly little man who lulls children to sleep with his magical stories. In each of his hands he invariably holds umbrellas (as the statue depicts), one of which gives magical dreams to good children, and the other deprives them of any restful sleep.
The opposite essence of his magical character is quite gloomy: Ole Lukoye met a person 2 times, being a harbinger of life and death.
The attraction is located at the address: Mytishchi, st. Sharapovskaya, 4 bldg. 1.

In 1380, in the battle on the Kulikovo field, together with Prince Dmitry Donskoy, the fate of the fatherland was decided, commanding an ambush regiment, by a talented military leader, the prince’s cousin Vladimir Andreevich, nicknamed Serpukhovsky. Among his possessions, received as a reward for the victory of the Russian army, the village of Taininskoye is mentioned for the first time, which during the 15th century was the center of a vast volost.
