Today the head of the city is Titov Alexey Alekseevich. The city was first mentioned in a letter sent by Prince Olgerd of Lithuania to Patriarch Philotheus of Constantinople. Olgerd wrote about it as a border town of the Moscow principality, called Klichen.

The main events that happened to the city in different periods of time:

Water maze

Seliger is an ideal place for water trips. Since the lake has a complex structure, it is worth familiarizing yourself with the structure of the water system. This will allow you to better navigate the area. The islands, of which there are more than 160, contribute to the unusual appearance of the lake! In addition, Seliger includes a dozen reaches and 12 lakes. This is a real water labyrinth.

In summer you can always see tourist sites on the shore

The largest stretch is considered to be Polnovsky. It reaches 16 kilometers in length and four kilometers in width. The average depth is 9 meters. According to these criteria, there are no equals to it on Seliger. It is followed by the 14-kilometer Berezovsky Reach. There are places here where the depth reaches 16 meters. Near the village of Zaluchye it forms a beautiful bay, which is called Zaluchienskaya Luka. The Kesaritsa peninsula juts deep into the bay.

Next in size is the Volokhovshinsky reach, 10 kilometers long and 7 meters deep. It ends with a narrow channel connecting it with Troitsky Reach, which is known for a large number of islands. The largest of them is called Zhuravka. The Kravotynsky reach has a restive character. The wind often whips up big waves here. Sosnitsky reach is 8 kilometers long and eight meters deep. Near the village of Sosnitsa it narrows greatly.

Seliger is a great place for fishing

Seliger includes lakes Chernoe, Svyatoe and Dolgoe. They are located outside the village of Dubov. In the east there are lakes Glubokoe, Berezovskoe and Seremo. Near the village of Zaplavye lies Lake Khresnoe. Between the villages of Kartun and Berezovsky Ryok are squeezed the Sobensky lakes - Glushitsa, Serebryanoye and Ryasivoe. Behind the village of Svetlitsa lakes Stroynoye and Svatitsa splash. Near the village of Botovo there is Lake Velichko, and near Selizharovsky Reach there is Lake Rakitino. All together this is Seliger!

The Upper Volga lakes stand apart. Hiking routes are also laid along them. They are located southwest of Seliger. There are four lakes in total - Volgo, Peno, Sterzh and Vselug. They are connected into a single system by the Volga, which pierces the reservoirs right through. The length of the lake chain reaches 90 kilometers.

Sterzh means “quiet lake”. The water there is really calm and very clear. The lake is very narrow: with a length of 12 kilometers, it is up to one and a half kilometers wide. The stem passes into Lake Vselug, which means “water in the meadow.” Its length is 14 kilometers, width is 4 kilometers and depth is 10 meters. The bottom of the lake is sandy, and on the banks there are green meadows and pine forests. The water surface is decorated with two islands - Baklan and Novosolovetsky. Seliger and the Upper Volga lakes connect near the village of Selizharovo.

Mushrooms and berries are found in abundance in coastal forests

In addition to traditional tributaries, Seliger has three main internal rivers. This often confuses beginners - where can the rivers inside the lake come from? The Polonovka River is a bridge between the Kravotynsky and Sosnitsky reaches. The Nepri River connects the Ostashkovsky and Troitsky reaches. The princess originates in the eastern lakes.

Autumn begins in early September. The weather in autumn is usually rainy and cool, although the temperature drops slowly. The average temperature in October is +5 degrees. Winter comes in November.

The ecological situation of the city is considered quite acceptable and the city even has the status of a resort city. All the large-scale factories of the city, which at one time had a negative impact on the ecology of the city, have sunk into oblivion: a creamery, a brewery, a bakery, and a tannery on the verge of closure. Thanks to this, the ecological situation of the city is quite favorable for permanent residents to live in the city and for the relaxation of visiting guests.

Religious buildings

Ostashkov, whose attractions are numerous ancient monuments, has a sister city in Estonia, which is called Maardu.

Chapel of Nil Stolobensky

The chapel is a modern brick structure, erected in honor of the 60th anniversary of the victory in the Second World War.

Ostashkov. You should start seeing the sights from the chapel of Nile Stolobensky.

The chapel was erected in 2005 in memory of those killed in the Great Patriotic War. The chapel is located in South Lane, next to the main post office building.

Bogorodetsky Zhitenny Convent

The monastery is located at the address: Ostashkov, st. Uritsky, house No. 1. Previously, in this building there was a monastery for men, erected in the name of the icon of the Most Holy Theotokos of Smolensk in the city of Klichen.

The burial of famous citizens of the city and clergy is organized within the walls of the monastery. During Soviet times, the monastery building was destroyed and devastated. In 2002, the building was restored and turned into a monastery for women.

Ascension or Znamensky Cathedral

In Ostashkovo there is a unique Cathedral of the Ascension, which is considered the main religious attraction of the city. Its location: st. Workers town, house number 1.

It is located on the site of an ancient convent, which was located on the shores of Lake Seliger. The cathedral has long been the custodian of the relics of St. Nile and is considered the main pilgrimage site for Orthodox believers.

Cathedral of the Life-Giving Trinity

Location of the cathedral: st. Pechatnikova, house No. 4. The cathedral, built in the Baroque style, is located near the Cathedral of the Resurrection. The date of its foundation is 1685. Today, the cathedral houses the main museum of the city of Ostashkovo. Inside the cathedral, church objects and numerous ancient frescoes are preserved.

Guide

Let's walk further along Leninsky Prospect to the intersection with the street. Lunacharsky and take a little to the right onto the street. Pechatnikova. Residential building beginning 18th century, or the governor's house (2)

(Pechatnikova St., 7), built by one of the “successful” trading people.
In Ostashkov it happened that one of the merchants, by the will of capricious Fortune, suddenly sold bread or fish profitably and turned into a rich man. The two-story rectangular volume of the house, consisting of a basement (storeroom) and a residential floor, has a narrow mezzanine in the center. The processing of the facades was rich: these are blades, a multi-stage cornice, platbands made of type-set figured parts (preserved only in the mezzanine). This house in Chaikin Lane has an analogue (no. 14), but it has come down to us in a more distorted form. Opposite the governor's house is the temple complex of the Resurrection (3)
(1677-1689) and Trinity
(4)
(1685-1697) cathedrals. There are not many religious buildings in the city, and this ensemble is a real decoration of Ostashkov.

Churches with identical spatial compositions were probably built by the same team of craftsmen. These are large, pillarless cubic volumes in two light, ending with two rows of kokoshniks in a running direction and five chapters. On three cardinal points, the quadrangles go around lowered porches - galleries with chapels at the eastern ends. The churches were richly decorated in the spirit of the 17th century, but were repeatedly subjected to alterations: today the Resurrection Church has an exterior decoration in the style of classicism, and the Trinity Cathedral, after restoration work, has been restored to its original exterior decoration. The free-standing bell towers of the churches are of great interest. The belfry of the Resurrection Cathedral is a striking monument to the Yaroslavl school, the so-called “candle” (it was almost destroyed in the 19th century). Its smooth faceted body with vertical angular blades is crowned with a ringing tier, covered with a tent with “rumors”. Here, high off the ground, artistic abundance is concentrated. The bell tower of the Trinity Cathedral is 70 years younger than its neighbor and displays completely different architectural tastes. There is no longer any place for tension and elasticity of lines; on the contrary, they have a smooth, fluid and changeable character, characteristic of Baroque.

Now in the Trinity Cathedral (Pechatnikov St., 4) the Ostashkovsky Museum of Local Lore (+7 (48235) 5‑16-46, 5‑10-24), in the Resurrection Cathedral (Volodarsky Ave., 19) there is an exhibition hall of the Museum of Local Lore ( +7 (48235) 5‑16-46, Wed-Sun 11:00–18:00)

Along the shore of Seliger we go to Zhitenny (Zhitnoy) island, which is connected to Ostashkov by a narrow embankment. This unusual idea was brought to life with the money of the remaining mayor, merchant F. Savin. On the left side of the dam there is a beach, on the right there are reed thickets, a favorite place for fishermen. The name of the island supposedly came from the granaries that took place here. It was a very long time ago, during the existence of the Klichen fortress. At the beginning of the 18th century. A wooden church was built on the island and the revered icon of the Smolensk Mother of God was transferred here from the city gates. With the discovery of the shrine, the first monks appeared. This is how the Zhitenny Monastery arose (5)

. Twice they tried to abolish the deserts, but this did not lead to anything. The first stone building of the monastery - the Smolensk Cathedral - dates back to 1742, a decade later a bell tower was added to it. In 1768, the Church of St. John the Evangelist and St. Andrew the First-Called rose above the gates - this is the only building that has survived in the best possible condition to our time. The monastery buildings suffered serious distortions: the Smolensk Cathedral and its bell tower lost their finishing, and the gate church was also significantly damaged - the gates in its lower tier were blocked with bricks. In the early 2000s. the monastery was returned to the believers.

Ostashkov-history and architecture

Concept and master plan

The status of the city was officially assigned to Ostashkov only in the 18th century. At the same time, its appearance rapidly changed, largely thanks to the diligence of the Novgorod governor J. Sivers, who visited the town with an inspection and was struck by the beauty of “this place.” Sivers, one might say, obtained from Empress Catherine II a new city plan for Ostashkov, which was drawn up by I. Starov and signed by the empress. The center of the city, according to tradition, became the cathedral square with the Transfiguration Church surrounded by shopping arcades. Straight “prospects” spread out from it in all directions. Wooden houses located on the red line of new streets were demolished, and stone ones were included in the development. The city, cut into squares and rectangles, even if built up with beautiful facades, could seem boring and even monotonous, but not Ostashkov, who showed bell towers and temples or the flickering mirror of Seliger at the end of the streets. By the beginning of the 19th century. The main streets of the city were paved with cobblestones, street lights were installed, and a city park was laid out. Along with social institutions (a hospital, a school for noble maidens, an orphanage), a library, a theater and even a brass band were organized. Ostashkov was praised by the provincial authorities, and the local authorities were proud of their achievements. But, as throughout Russia, poverty was hidden behind the elegant facades, and all of Ostashkov’s well-being turned out to be only an appearance, a kind of theatrical props.

Architectural structures

On the streets of the city you can see interesting architectural structures.

Valian pillar

The architectural structure is located on the territory of the city at the address: Adrianova Lane, house No. 5. This is a square building with a spire, built in the Baroque style. The structure was installed on the site where the southern trade gate was located in ancient times. In 1711, in one of the many fires, the ancient gate burned down.

Ostashkov Town Hall

The Town Hall is an architectural monument of the 18th century and one of the oldest buildings in Ostashkovo. Previously, it was the center of the economy, politics and social life of Ostashkovo.

Over the past centuries, the building has undergone refurbishment and restoration. The modern appearance of the building is somewhat different from the original. The Town Hall is located at the address: Pechatnikova Street, building No. 7.

Fire Tower

The old fire tower is located in the city of Ostashkov at the address: Sovetsky Lane, building No. 17 (formerly Torgovaya Square).

One of the high-paying places remains the much-needed Bologoe-Velikie Luki railway.

Now the majority of city residents work in non-productive sectors, such as trade. It’s good that new production facilities are even opening, the Dorkhan door factory, for example.

Reserved Island

Khachin Island deserves special attention. Its area is 30 square kilometers. The island has 13 internal lakes, which are also connected by channels. Beloe Lake is considered the most beautiful. It is small - 500x400 meters - but very picturesque. The island is divided into two parts by a man-made channel called Kopanka. It was dug by the monks of the Nilovskaya Hermitage.

Khachin is famous for its pristine nature. The forests are inhabited by moose, wild boars, bears, badgers, foxes, and hares. Beavers have settled on the shores of Lake Karesovo. Here you can see the results of their work. Lake White-Severny is home to burbot and eel. He comes to Chernoye to fish for pike and roach. The name of Lake Shchuchye speaks for itself. In addition to toothy predators, bream and perch are caught here. Khachin is inhabited. There are four villages and two boarding houses on the island.
