Rural club and monument to fellow countrymen who died in battles for the freedom and independence of the Motherland

Nagorye is located near the border of the Pereslavl region with the Tver region. It is located 47 km west of the regional city of Pereslavl-Zalessky and 187 km from the regional city of Yaroslavl. Immediate railway stations: Kalyazin 48 km (in the Tver region) and Berendeevo 62 km (in the Pereslavl region).

The village is called Highland by its location, as it stands on a hill and can be seen from afar from all sides; in all directions from the village there is a gentle slope. The area around the village is quite flat and occupied by fields and smaller villages and hamlets, limited by coniferous forest. In the lowlands there are moss swamps with small pine forests, and on the hills there are spruce groves.

The soil is also infertile. South-west winds mainly prevail in the village. The annual precipitation rate is about 500 mm. Winter in the Highlands is quite harsh, with autumn and spring being wet and June and July generally dry and hot.

5 km from Nagorye, the Nerl River flows, skirting the Nagorsk area from the eastern, southern and western sides, flowing from the lake and flowing into the Volga (in fact, it is a continuation of the Vyoksa River, flowing from Lake Pleshcheyevo). On the southern outskirts of the village flows a tributary of the Nerl - a stream called the Melenka River and, at the beginning of its flow, forms, through an artificial dam, the Nikolsky Pond, named after the Nikolsky Church that was previously located here. In the village itself there is also a central Selsky (Bazarsky), Selkhoztekhniki and other smaller ponds.

Story [ | ]

Then the Highlands belonged to Ekaterina Mikhailovna Saltykova, together with the village of Voskresensky (Khmelniki), located 5 km from it, and 16 surrounding villages, inherited from her by Count Matvey Fedorovich Apraksin. This entire estate, amounting to 1060 male souls, was bought by Empress Catherine II in 1770 and granted eternal and hereditary ownership to Admiral Grigory Andreevich Spiridov, for the defeat and destruction of the Turkish fleet at Chesma. At this time the village received its current name. Bears the name of Admiral Spiridov since March 29, 1944 the main street village (formerly Moscow); in 1962, on the site of the former manor house (now the territory of a kindergarten), a bust-monument was erected to him by the sculptor O. V. Butkevich and the architect I. B. Purishev. In the Nagoryevsky House of Creativity there was a museum dedicated to the history of the Spiridov family.

The Church of St. Nicholas the Wonderworker with the chapel of the Great Martyr Irina in the churchyard on the Melenka River has been known since 1628. Then there were no icons, no books, no church utensils. According to legend, in ancient times there was a monastery in its place called “Nikola in Tyntsy”, but no traces of its existence remain. This church was abolished in 1796, in its place a chapel was built, which stood until 1923, and clergy houses were erected near it.

Church of the Transfiguration of the Savior

Located one and a half kilometers from St. Nicholas Church, the wooden Church of the Transfiguration of the Savior was in disrepair in 1628, and by 1654 it had already been restored. In 1785, Grigory Spiridov, instead of wooden church began to build a vast stone temple with three altars and a bell tower. The construction was completed in 1787. In 1790, under the floor of the church at the entrance to the refectory, the bodies of the temple builder Admiral Spiridov and his wife were buried in a stone crypt. In 1795, under his eldest son and heir of Nagorye, senator and historian Matvey Grigorievich Spiridov, two more chapels were built on the western side of the Transfiguration Church in memory of the former wooden St. Nicholas Church. In 1833, a throne was installed in the refectory in honor of the Kazan Icon of the Mother of God, transferred from the home church of Matvey Grigorievich Spiridov, which existed from 1821 until his death. Thus, there are currently six altars in the church: in the cold one in honor of the Transfiguration of the Lord, the Life-Giving Trinity and the Nativity of St. John the Baptist, in the warm aisles in the name of St. Nicholas the Wonderworker, the Mother of God, called “Joy of All Who Sorrow,” and the Kazan Icon Mother of God. Above the throne of the main temple there was a canopy crowned with a small wooden cross on 4 wooden columns; inside the dome of the canopy the Lord of Hosts was depicted; on the front side of the canopy there were 2 carved angels holding a crown. A similar canopy was built over the throne in the chapel of St. Nicholas the Wonderworker. The church was rich in various decorations.

Under Matvey Grigorievich Spiridov, the entire south-eastern side of the village was occupied by a manorial estate, built in 1785, with an area of ​​8.7 hectares with a garden, a linden grove and greenhouses. I spent my summers in the Highlands as a child and winter holidays one of the Decembrists is Mikhail Matveevich Spiridov, son of Matvey Grigorievich. Upon the death of the latter in 1829, the estate, along with the land and serfs, was divided into 4 parts between his sons, two of which were preserved in his direct line and were in the possession of his grandchildren. At the end of the 19th century, each of the estates had owner's houses and gardens attached to them; in one of them there was a linden grove, in the other - a birch grove. In 1880, there was only one landowner's estate left - that of staff captain Grigory Grigoryevich Spiridov. Back in 1957, a descendant of Admiral Spiridov, 68-year-old Dmitry Ivanovich Spiridov, lived in a neighboring village, who worked for 36 years as an agronomist in Pereslavl and other areas of the region.

In 1847, there were up to 600 people in the village.

Since 1778, Nagorye belonged to the Pereslavl district of the Vladimir province, and was the center of the Nagoryevskaya (Nagorskaya) volost. It was located on a large road called the Kalyazinsky tract (from Pereslavl to Kalyazin), which has now lost its significance. To this day, four roads lead to the village and in its center on the shopping square, one goes to Pereslavl, the other to Kalyazin, the third to Uglich, the fourth to Sergiev Posad and Moscow. In 1880, the road to Pereslavl was inconvenient, since it was covered with bridges and gators, passed (and passes) through wooded areas, and the road to Trinity was mountainous and clayey; the path to Kalyazin was considered more convenient, because it ran (and runs) through sandy and treeless terrain. In general, the area could not boast of the convenience of communications; In the spring and autumn, due to the lack of pavements, severe mud was encountered.

Part of its parish was adjacent to the very border of the Kalyazinsky district of the Tver province, bordering on the lands of the villages: Svyatova 5 km, Solbinskaya Nikolaevskaya Hermitage 13 km, Zagorye 9 km, Daratnikov 15 km, Elpatieva 6 km, (Kalyazinsky district) 9 km, Voskresensky-Khmelnikov at 5 and Andrianov at 5.

The Nagorsky parish, in addition to the village itself, consisted of 15 villages (state department: Foninskoe, villages of peasants of owners and obliged, Mikhaltsevo, , and); in 1880, in all there were up to 1,435 male souls) peasants, owners, temporarily obliged and state-owned with a population of 1,820 male souls. The main occupation of all of them was agriculture, and in winters the peasants, who were landowners, were engaged in weaving paper products in 14 lighthouses, and the state ones were engaged in cooperage work. The people were not prosperous, there were few literate people, there was one public school, but that one was private.

In the Highlands itself in 1880 there were 114 peasant households, 11 landowners and clergy, 13 petty bourgeois, 1 church and 1 soldier, for a total of 140 households; residents from peasants - 325 male souls, clergy in three clergy - 26 souls, nobles, merchants, townspeople and other temporarily residing inhabitants - up to 35 souls, a total of 385 souls. In 1885, a strong fire destroyed almost all wooden buildings, including the estate, but already in 1887 it was rebuilt.

The Highlands have long been a trading village. Distanced from all neighboring cities by at least 48 km, it became a significant trading point. Trade area, occupying a significant space in the center of the village, belonged to local landowners and other owners. In 1880, there were 60 shops on the square, 17 of them stone, owned by the local church; in addition, two lines of tented shop premises; the shops were all covered with planks. Trade was carried out in red goods, leather, iron and flour, meat, sheepskins, horses, wooden and pottery and other rural products; There were also four shops selling colonial goods. There were four annual fairs: Petrovskaya, Ilyinskaya, Preobrazhenskaya and Pokrovskaya, and weekly bazaars took place on Tuesdays, starting from Intercession Day to Peter's Day (from October 1 to June 29). In the summer, the weekly bazaars stopped. Trade was carried out for the most part third party merchants; On trading days, local residents were engaged only in selling food supplies. There were 3 taverns, 2 taverns, 2 inns, 1 wine wholesale warehouse and 1 oil mill.

All the land of four rural communities of the village of Nagorya with 7 villages (Torchinovo, Ananyino, Myasoedovo, Rodionovo, Ogoreltsy, Kamyshevo and Ovchinino, all parishes of the village of Nagorya; in the entire Nagorsky society according to family lists in 1880 there were 697 male souls and 705 female souls) up to 2611 hectares were considered, of which 888 hectares were arable. The land near the village of Nagorye, owned by local landowners and other owners, is about 1792 hectares and 153 hectares of church land. Including arable 109 hectares for the church and up to 76.5 hectares for the landowners and other owners. The rest of the peasant and church land was hayfield and pasture land, and for private owners, part of it was hayfield wasteland, leased out to their own and others, partly was small forest and wasteland, the amount of which was difficult to determine in detail. Peasants usually harvested 4 carts per capita or up to 100 poods per plot; for everyone, up to 1048 carts came out, for landowners up to 60, for clergy up to 70, and in total up to 1178 carts. The land was divided among the peasants among themselves by “Osmacks”; the osmak included 4 revision souls.

The soil of the earth is sandy, or it would be more correct to call it sandy loam with clayey subsoil. Such a ridge of land occupies the entire Nagorsky village. In the surrounding area the land is of the same quality. The quality of the land is quite fertile, however, it requires constant fertilization, it is suitable for sowing all kinds of grain, but it was sown with more ordinary bread: rye, oats and flax; The peasants of the four societies had different plantings; in round numbers, the yield in sowing rye was 6.5 measures per “soul”, which amounted to 44.5 thousand liters, for churchmen up to 10.5 thousand liters, for landowners up to 4.2 thousand liters. When sowing, 1.5 quarters of rye were sown per tithe (a quarter - 210 l), 2 quarters of zhitar, and 3 quarters of oats. The usual harvest of all grains itself is 3.5, a pood of flaxseed yielded 1-3 poods of flax seed, depending on the harvest. The hayfields were mostly forested and dry. Two owners of a five-field farm introduced grass sowing. Empty areas on landowners' lands remained uncultivated, partly due to inconvenience, partly due to distance from villages, and partly due to a lack of enterprise among the peasants. In 1900, the peasants of the seven volosts, which made up the Nagoryevsky district in the mid-20th century, had 215 wooden plows, 275 harrows with wooden teeth, more advanced equipment - 6 horse-drawn threshers, 7 and 8 mowers were owned by wealthy peasants and landowners.

The peasants never had a surplus of food, so nothing went on sale. Various kinds of bread, potatoes, cabbage, cucumbers and other garden vegetables were sown in the quantities required by each householder for his home. The peasants kept only the necessary livestock: horses, cows and sheep. For a tax, or 2 souls, a good owner kept 1 horse, 1 cow, 2 sheep, if he hired haymaking somewhere on the side, but a bad or impoverished one did not have even that. The peasants ate very little food. Usually: baked bread made from rye flour and, as a delicacy, unleavened bread mixed with barley flour; radish, onion without oil. At lunch, gray sour cabbage soup. The peasants considered turnips and cucumbers a delicacy; potatoes were consumed as a rare item. Meat and fish were available only on temple holidays.

There was very little arable land for sale; There were two cases of sale of the same quality, but at very different prices. One lady sold tithes for 55 rubles, and another for 100 rubles, since a certain price for 1880 had not yet been established. Hayfield land in the wastelands could be bought much cheaper, at 10-20 rubles per dessiatine. The forest in the vicinity was mostly spruce; in the wastelands, especially those of the landowners, there were also pine trees, but for the most part they were small and unsuitable for buildings. Firewood for heating was purchased from the neighboring dachas of Bakhmurov and Golovinskaya. There was plenty of stone throughout the surrounding area; it was found in the fields, and in some places it was collected from the fields into heaps; There were no known places where it lay in special deposits or quarries.

There is no fishing near the village. Fresh fish was delivered to the Nagorsky market partly from Pereslavl and the village of Usolya (Kupanskoye), partly from surrounding villages. Peasants caught fish along the two tributaries that form the Nerl, the Nerl itself, flowing from the east, and the Kubri, flowing from the south.

In the southern side of the village flows a tributary of the Nerl River - a stream of fresh spring water, called the Melenka River and forms, at the beginning of its course, through an artificial dam, the Nikolsky Pond, the water of which was considered “very suitable for residents.” There are also small ponds in the village itself, but the water in them is stagnant and therefore unsuitable for consumption. For daily consumption, water was obtained from wells.

In 1869, a four-class zemstvo public school was opened in Nagorye. It was located behind the church fence, in a church-owned building with 3 classrooms. In 1893, there were 105 people studying there, and in 1912 - 78, of whom only 6 boys and 2 girls graduated, since parents were forced to take their children out of school and force them to work on the farm or babysit their children. In 1915 there were 3 teachers at the school.

In 1897 there were 635 people in the Highlands.

Soviet power in the village was established almost peacefully: only on November 21, 1917, the local priest N.A. Bogoyavlensky, during the all-night vigil, called for defending the Provisional Government and not believing the Bolsheviks, but the Nagoryevites tied up those who supported him and sent them to Pereslavl.

In 1927, Upland had more than 200 residential one-story log structures, each housing about 5.5 people. About 90% of the houses were four-walled, about 80% consisted of one room and a kitchen, and about 40% of the houses were dilapidated. There was an average of 3.5 m² of living space per person. Many had earthen heaps; plinths were rare. Caulking of houses was done mainly with moss, less often with tow; Few houses were covered with planks, almost none were painted, and only 20% of the houses were wallpapered inside (mostly partially). Most houses were wrapped in straw for the winter, but the floors and corners were still frozen. Each hut had a Russian, and some also had a Dutch oven; Permanent stoves generally did not provide enough heat in winter, and many people put down temporary stoves for the winter. The majority had an unpaved covered courtyard and canopy, some had barns or barns, and a few had cellars. Most did not have special rooms for crafts, beds, toilets, or garbage bins. The huts were dirty and full of insects. There were no baths in the village (except for the hospital); people washed in a Russian stove. 50% of the houses had front gardens, mostly planted with rowan and birch. Most had vegetable gardens, some had orchards, etc. The main occupation of the population was still agriculture, about 15-20% were engaged in subsidiary trades.

In 1929, during the administrative-territorial reform, the village became the center of the Nagoryevsky district, which united 8 former volosts of the Pereslavl district. The Highlands grew. The peasant and artisan population was replenished with employees and intelligentsia. In 1929, the collective farm “Union” was created in Nagorye (from 1965 - “Nagorye”). In the summer of 1931, the Nagoryevsk Machine and Tractor Station (MTS) was formed; at the time of its creation, its fleet consisted of 19 low-power Fordson tractors and 5 STZ tractors. The creation of the MTS was important for the flax growing that was developing in the area at that time. In 1932, MTS served under contracts 80 collective farms with arable land of 11,533 hectares, that is, 37% of all arable land in the Nagoryevsky district, and flax crops of 2,938 hectares, which accounted for 49% of flax crops in the region. At the end of 1932, MTS already had 24 tractors with a total capacity of 265 hp. With. , a 2.5-ton vehicle and 79 flax teeters. During the year, MTS plowed 1913 hectares, mechanization of work reached 37%.

Administrative building

In 1931, a two-story building of the district executive committee, an outpatient clinic, a canteen of the district consumer union, an elevator, premises for a branch of the State Bank, and a house for the office “Zagotlen” were built in Nagorye. The following year a club, six communal houses on Pervomaiskaya Street, a prosecutor's office building, and a bathhouse were built. In 1933, a new savings bank house was built, the Nagoryevskaya school of collective farm youth was renovated, a second floor was built over the post office building, and construction of MTS buildings began. During these same years, a telegraph and radio center were created. In recent pre-war years new buildings of the district party committee, the district executive committee, the Zagotzerno base, a cultural center, a tea-canteen and other departmental and public buildings were built. In June 1932, the Nagoryevsky flax mill was put into operation. During the first five-year plans, a food processing plant appeared in the Highlands.

Since 1931, the regional newspaper Pobeda was published in Nagorye. The pioneer detachment in the Highlands was one of the first to appear in the Pereslavl district. The Nagoryevsk school became a seven-year school. She was given the best house in the village, which belonged to the landowners Spiridovs; the old school building became the dining room of the boarding school. In 1937 the school was transformed into a secondary school. In 1933, Upland had a cinema with 300 seats and a hospital with 30 beds. There was a telephone connection with a capacity of 74 points and a receiving radio station. In 1929, Upland received the first telephone set in the area. In the fall of 1930, the church was destroyed, the ashes of Admiral Spiridov were desecrated (returned to its original place in 1944). Since that time, its building has housed a state farm warehouse.

Since the mid-1950s, the food processing plant started producing sausages and producing soft drinks. The plant supplied up to 100 tons of starch to industry annually. In the fall of 1956, the construction of a standard machine and tractor workshop, equipped with new machines and cranes, was completed. It had steam heating, a forge and welding shop and other production and utility rooms. Also this year, the construction of a brick bathhouse, a sewing workshop, an office and a residential building for the forestry enterprise was completed, and a hotel and a Selkhozsnaba store were opened. In 1957, MTS had 122 powerful Soviet tractors, 34 S-4 self-propelled combines, 8 corn harvesters, 5 flax combines, earthmoving machines and dozens of other agricultural machines. Of these, 72 tractors of various brands, 28 combines, 10 threshing machines and many other equipment were sent already in the 1950s.

In 1957, there were two schools in the Highlands - primary and secondary, and a correspondence counseling center high school.

In 1954, he appeared at the Nagoryevsk regional hospital, working from his own electric generator. In 1956, an ambulance was equipped and received.

In 1950-1957 residential communal fund increased by almost a thousand square meters.

An amateur artistic group was created at the House of Culture, in whose circles more than thirty employees of the district Komsomol committee, the state bank, the district consumer union, the post office, the hospital and other organizations, and students participated. In 1957, the district library was visited by 840 readers. Younger schoolchildren could spend their cultural leisure time in the children's library and the house of pioneers.

In 1959, there were attempts to establish air communication with Yaroslavl.

In 1963, the Nagoryevsky district was abolished, and its territory became part of the Pereslavl district.

Kindergarten "Sun"

In 1969, the school, whose new building was built in the early 1960s, had 560 full-time residents of the Highlands and surrounding villages. There was a large gym, well-equipped classrooms for physics, chemistry, biology, mechanical engineering, educational workshops, a library, a kitchen and a dining room. There were numerous clubs, electives, and sports sections. More than a hundred schoolchildren lived in a boarding school, the two-story building of which is located on the village square. Cheap three meals a day were provided for them. There were 28 teachers, of whom 25 had completed higher education. Among other things, they studied mechanical engineering and tractor driving. Graduates received not only certificates of secondary education, but also the rights of rural machine operators. So, in 1981, the school had its own tracked and wheeled tractors and a grain harvester.

The population continued to grow, including due to immigrants from small “unpromising villages”. In the 1970s, due to individual and departmental construction, Pervomaiskaya, Pereslavskaya, Kalyazinskaya, and Novaya streets were lengthened; The village of Selkhoztekhniki especially grew, the apartments in which already had running water, sewerage, and baths. Water supply was also provided to the hospital, children's factory, catering establishments and the like; Most residents used water taps. Several small boiler houses operated (at agricultural machinery, a hospital, a poultry farm, at a club, at a retail trade enterprise, two at a school) - using coal, liquid fuel, and peat.

In 1975, a workshop (milk collection point) of the Pereslavl cheese and creamery operated in Nagorye. In 1981, the Nagorye state farm (grain, meat, milk, wool, flax), an off-farm poultry farm (built in 1961), a cheese factory, a flax plant (fiber from trust), a confectionery shop, agricultural machinery, agricultural chemicals, a motorcade, etc. operated in Nagorye. .. In the early 1980s, despite the “dedicated work of advanced workers”, “the introduction of the team method of organizing work”, “the consistent increase in production efficiency”, the plan for many important types of products often remained unfulfilled. Poor organization of work and poor coordination between organizations were noticeable. There was a shortage of personnel, their aging, the outflow of young people from the village, and the most active and capable ones, drunkenness; associated with low working conditions in agriculture (long working days and weeks in the summer, vacations at inconvenient times) and cultural and living conditions (for example, problems with obtaining gas cylinders; a cold club, dancing several times a year “on great holidays”, lack of recreational evenings, decline of local sports - the stadium, “once resounding with the cries of fans,” turned into a wasteland).

Church of the Transfiguration of the Savior

August 2, 1992 indoors again open church The first service was held for the founder of the temple, Admiral Spiridov. The church was finally restored only at the beginning of the 2010s.

Nagorye is a village in the Pereslavl district of the Yaroslavl region, the center of the Nagoryevskoye rural settlement. The population as of January 1, 2007 was 1,795 people.

Name

The village of Nagorye in the old days had several names: Poreevo (Pareevo (until the 17th century), Nikolskoye, then Preobrazhenskoye (according to local churches), and, finally, Nagorye, that is, located on a mountain - a popular name, the only one that has survived to this day. Its own The village has had its modern name since 1770. This name appears in the documents of Catherine II.

Geography

Nagorye is located near the border of the Pereslavl region with the Tver region. It is located 47 km west of the regional city of Pereslavl-Zalessky and 187 km from the regional city of Yaroslavl. The nearest railway stations are: Kalyazin, 48 km (in the Tver region) and Berendeevo, 62 km (in the Pereslavl region). The village is called Highland by its location, as it stands on a hill and can be seen from afar from all sides; in all directions from the village there is a gentle slope. The area around the village is quite flat and occupied by fields and smaller villages and hamlets, limited by coniferous forest. In the lowlands there are moss swamps with small pine forests, and on the hills there are spruce groves. The soil is sandy loam and infertile. South-west winds mainly prevail in the village. The annual precipitation rate is about 500 mm. Winter in the Highlands is quite harsh, with autumn and spring being wet and June and July usually being dry and hot. 5 km from Nagorye the Nerl River flows, skirting the Nagorsk area from the eastern, southern and western sides, flowing from Lake Somino and flowing into the Volga (in fact, it is a continuation of the Vyoksa River flowing from Lake Pleshcheevo). On the southern outskirts of the village flows a tributary of the Nerl - a stream called the Melenka River and, at the beginning of its flow, forms, through an artificial dam, the Nikolsky Pond, named after the Nikolsky Church that was previously located here. In the village itself there is also a central Selsky (Bazarsky), Selkhoztekhniki and other smaller ponds.

The first mention of the village of Poreevo dates back to the 14th century. But it existed already during the time of the Pereslavl principality, served as its stronghold in the west and stood at the crossroads of trade roads between Moscow, Uglich and Ksnyatin, on the very border of the Pereslavl, Tver and Uglich principalities. For travel and transportation of goods here they took a zamytye (trade duty), therefore the entire surrounding area was called “Zamitye”, and its owners received the surname Zamytsky. The village of Poreevo in 1571 was given by Davyd and Ivan Zamytsky to the Trinity-Sergius Monastery. According to the scribe book of 1593, the village of Poreevo included several beginnings, a wasteland, arable land, 30 quarters in a field, 50 kopecks of hay, 4 dessiatines of forest, a monastery courtyard, a cow yard, 7 peasant farmsteads. In 1593, this patrimony was taken by the head Afanasy Alyabyev, making a contribution of 100 rubles for it. Since 1614, Poreevo again belonged to the monastery. In 1624, the village was assigned to the sovereign's palace villages in the palace, but was soon returned to Mikhail Mikhailov...
