Kovel where. Covery of trains and trains
Now our good state gives us whole Christmas holidays in the New Year, as many as 11 days off in a row. Sin does not take advantage. From 6 to 10 I already had a busy (Stavropol Cherkessk-Elista), but from 1 to 5 - absolutely free. It was decided to quickly look at Volyn - the joke of Ukraine, Belarus and Poland, namely the cities of Kovel, Lutsk, Vladimir-Volynsky. Looking forward to say that Vladimir-Volynsky could not see. I regret it.
The series will be three posts - Kovel, Lutsk and, separately, Lutsky castle. Photos turned out very medium, but so what is.
How it is not ridiculous, to travel to these places is best through Brest. The train to Brest goes around 14 hours and not a day, as a direct Moscow-Kovel. 3.5 hours by bus and from totalitarian Belarus you move to a democratic Ukraine. The most difficult thing is to have money of both states. After all, the train number 22 comes to the Brest station in a half-morning morning. But the exchangers at the station work. Totalitarianism!
Bus walks quite often and cost inexpensively - something about 24,000 Belarusian rubles. Those. Approximately 230 Russians.
Apparently, everything was clear to everyone, the stencil on the interstate bus was performed in Russian (BREST and Macran would be written in Belarus, and in Ukrainian - "Ratn").
Citizens of Russia to enter the territory of Ukraine should be filled with an immigration card, and the explanatory records for it these quidomitimites have been fulfilled in English and Ukrainian. Very uncomfortable in the dark it is all disassembled.
The border is real, with the transition points, with machine gunners and with all such. Points are called "Mokran" - "Domanovo" in the nearby villages. From the Ukrainian side of the place is very deaf and about 15 kilometers from the border, the bus goes through a solid snow-covered forest. Yes, and clean worse than in the Republic of Belarus. But in the wild forest, for kilometers from the nearest housing, you can see the illuminated advertising banner, calling for vote for Yushchenko.
The first major Ukrainian village is the district center (or rant on Ukrainian). A kind driver of the Brest State Automobile Power transplanted passengers from his bus to passing, but already Ukrainian. Why did he do it? And very simple - on the schedule on the borders to take 40 minutes. We passed them for half an hour both and therefore he had to stand in a wonderful hour. Schedule.
So, I'm in Kovel. The weather is so-so. Spiny frost -15 -17.
History:
The history of these lands rich in the first powerful state education here was the Galician-Volyn Principality (1199, so strong that argued with Kiev himself). But the unsuccessful location at the crossroads of roads and interests pumped the power of the princes. Polish, Ordane, Russians, Lithuanian and even Hungarian (!) Neighbors have always been not to be boring.
Therefore, the strongest neighbor (Grand Duchy Lithuanian) was stopped soon all to his hands (XIV century). Although some autonomy of the Galician-Volyn princes succeeded near the century. But nothing is forever. On in 1569, he was united with the speech of the compulcancy, i.e. Poland. Volyn Voivodeship, created three years before that - too. Religious clashes immediately began, because the Poles and then the Istani Catholics are now.
In 1795 there was a third (at the moment the last) section of Poland. Prussia, Austria and Rossia set their control over new territories. The formed Volyn province of the Russian Empire was great. This is the current Volyn, Rivne, Zhytomyr region plus some parts of Ternopil and Khmelnitsky regions of Ukraine. Actually, these lands are historically and called Volyn. But now this name is applied only to the Volyn region (not Lutsk note, but Volynskaya).
Note: Typically, the name of the region is given by the main city. There are exceptions. For example, in Ukraine, their three - Transcarpathian (Uzhgorod), Volyn (Lutsk) and the Republic of Crimea (Simferopol).
But we were distracted. The PMW, the revolution and the intervention of course did not pass by. As a result of the 1921 Riga treaty, the Volyn Voivodeship of Poland appeared again.
For example, a 1929 card
It is perfect that half of the current Belarus (Brest and Grodno region), part of Lithuania (Vilnius) and all Western Ukraine (Volyn, Rivne, Ternopil, Lviv, Ivano-Frankivsk) are found in Poland. In addition to Transcarpathia, which generally landed in Czechoslovakia.
But it was not long. In 1939, as a result of the Molotov-Ribbentrop Poland, the "ugly braid of the Versailles") was not found on the map. The boundaries were once again revised and now exist approximately in the same framework. There was no province in the USSR, so a new administrative unit was formed - the Volyn region. It was substantially smaller than the past province, but at this moment she is already 71 years old.
The occupation during World War II continued for 3.5 years. In addition to the Germans, both the Ukrainian national armed elements acted as partisans.
In 1944, the city was greatly glorified as a result of the counterdad of the German tank parts (5 TDs of the SS "Viking" and others). Wehrmacht managed to significantly fasten parts 3 UV and tie brutal positional battles. If Lutsk was released on February 2, 1944, then the Battle continued for the camp until June 7, 1944 and between cities less than 100 kilometers.
About these events writer Emmanuel Kazakevich was written a story "Star", twice-extasted (in 1949 and 2002). The last now is often shown on TV.
Kovel
Let's look at the city. Or Misto, as the Ukrainians call it.
The date of the founding of the city is considered to be December 24, 1518, when in Brest, the Polish king of Sigismund I released a diploma allowing the prince Vasily Sangushko to form a city from the village with the provision of Magdeburg law from the village. Naturally, the settlement essentially before. The date of the first mention is officially considered to be 1310, but the question is ambiguous.
The name comes from the word "to kill" i.e. Cove (a) - "Kuznets", which was reflected in the coat of arms.
At the local census, 1893 there were 15116 people from them: the gentry - 696, Meshan - 13032, peasants - 1266. Orthodox churches were 4, chostels - 1, synagogue - 1, Jewish houses of prayer - 7. Such a large number of Jewish prayers are due to the fact that Historically, the Jews were here until half of the population. Until the Second World War.
After the Second World War, the city had to restore anew, there were only a few houses and destroyed railway tracks.
Kovel is a nodal station on the Lviv road, there are already 6 directions - to Sarny, on Rovno, to Vladimir-Volynsky, on Yagodin (Polish border), for Brest and a dead-end branch to Kamenets-Kashirsky. Movement, especially freight, very active.
Inside everything is very neat and clean. But in winter and trains and passengers a little. Oh yes, I forgot to say - he island type i.e. Ways from two sides. All pedestrian movement goes through the underpass.
So he looked at the beginning of the last century.
That's the way it was almost immediately after the construction in 1907 (architect A. M. Verbitsky). Bright modern.
In the war destroyed, then repeatedly restored and repaired. Now the general appearance is.
General features are visible but modern details are turrets and the central window opening of a complex shape - removed. Sorry.
The Second World War. It is very similar to this loading on work in Germany. Or unloading. Obviously some women.
At the station historical locomotive and church of the Pochaevskaya icon of the Mother of God.
The fact is that Orthodoxy's support for Volyn is the Holy Assumption Pocheevskaya Lavra (village of Pokayev in the Ternopil region), in which this very revered icon is stored. This church is in her honor.
Restable old photo. Taxi drivers. One hundred years ago probably. Well eighty.
Almost the only historical street of the city and the most central - the inequishment ie Independence. While the question of independence was not paid so much attention, she managed to be and Lutsk and Lenin.
In the photo perfectly visible an eclectic nature of the construction of the street -
Brezhnevian nine-story, bakery, a narrow green structure and the edge of the most beautiful city building.
District Polyclinic Building 1910
Old photo. There is written "Hotel Bristol" but this is a long building. And the closest is a clinic.
General photo of Lutsk (inextricity) One hundred years ago. Now the movement is more precious.
Building Pharmacy Friedrichson. It was built at the beginning of the 20th century and is a pharmacy until now.
The building has not changed. At all.
And this is a modern photo from another angle.
This type of buildings is well known to everyone. Do not confuse anything.
Former District Committee of the CPSU. Probably, there was cast iron Lenin in front of him, but now V.I. Not in favor in Ukraine. Very other idols.
Monument to the soldiers-liberators of the Red Army. He is so called so far, as it is not strange.
And gas in this case do not save.
Echo of War - Ausweiss (skip) employee of the Kovelsky station.
Photo of the times of another war - Russian prisoners of war, 1915
Palace of Pioneers. Now he is called "the soldiers of the scientist young people" but it is almost the same thing. On the left even the Christmas tree in the frame fell.
Sections of the old building are very small and the very familiar landscape begins.
The supermarket is similar to any supermarket in any country in the world.
Some more interesting houses in the vicinity:
Good little Stalinka. (I draw attention to the bike again).
REGISTRY OFFICE. Approximately 50s, but it is easy to confuse with 30s.
The same time the building of the hotel "Kovel". Now the building is almost abandoned. Offices only.
The main place of relaxation townspeople is Shevchenko Park on the branded tour.
The park itself winter looks like so-so. Without trees are Naked. A snapshot is unsuccessful, the monument itself is practically not visible. But I can tell you that Shevchenko is something like the Iron Terminator. Sculptor is unscrewing.
On the other side of the children's correctional colony. Such a prose.
The private sector is not 3/4 of the city. And the mailboxes put as in the entrances of apartment buildings - on the street at once.
Religious component.
Ukraine The battlefield of the opposing parties is not only in politics but also in religious issues. Orthodoxy has Moscow and Kiev and it is fundamentally different things.
The Holy Resurrection Cathedral belongs to supporters of the ROC.
Unfortunately, I can not find its exact history, and it was clearly stormy. What in ancient, which is completely in recent times. It seems to be built in 1877, and in Soviet times did not close.
But the Cathedral of the Annunciation of the Blessed Virgin Mary of Kiev Patriarchate. At this place the church was a long time ago. As the first date is sometimes called 1505 (even before the foundation of the city itself, built in the village (!) Covel).
Then (in 1848-1877) this cathedral was built in her place. Acted in Polish time, after the war, closed and in 1961 became even a gym. Now reopened and reconstructed. Since it is on the site of an ancient foundation, then for tourists in the floor of the temple, glass inserts are made. They can see the remains of the ancient buildings.
Information on subordination is necessarily indicated on the sign. The funny thing is that they stand near, literally they have a common fence.
I am very sorry that I did not see the Catholic Cathedral of St. Anne in the Kovel. Wooden construction of the 18th century is far from the center and I did not get to it. Unfortunately.
http://kovel.biz.ua/city/geo?lang\u003dru.
« The oldest wooden church of the Covel is the Roman Catholic Church of St. Anne built in 1771, brought from the village of Cherryzhensky district. Unique dvloweva shape shape, which is characteristic of more for stone architecture. In Ukraine, the wooden dwarf chuts dated with the 18th century, only two and one of them have been preserved - in the city of Kovel».
Various evangelical churches like Baptists bloomed more than any other authorities. Many new chapel homes rebuilt enough.
Here is such ...
Or such ...
Their presence is noticeably in the city in the landscape.
As, however, both active political life in Ukraine.
The next story will be about the capital of the Volyn region G. Lutsk.
For the photo of the old office thanks forumhttp://kovel.net.ua (Almost all historical took from there).
P.S. For LJ-Jouzer varandej. - Does it make sense to send this post in Rashantones? On the one hand, in the post-guidebook of the Volyn region of Ukraine, there is not very different on the other side of the photo.

Kovel is a city of regional importance in the Volyn region of Ukraine and the district center of the Kovelsky district. The city is located 70 km north-west from the regional center of Lutsk, at the low plain and banks of the Turing River. From the north side, it is surrounded by swamps and meadows, and forests and sands are adjacent to it.
Kovel is one of the most ancient cities and one of the largest railway hubs of Western Ukraine. It has important strategic importance for Ukraine, connecting it with many countries in Europe.
The old Ukrainian city of Kovel was founded at the beginning of the first century, when old-Russian settlements were located here (copper-stone age). During the archaeological excavations, spears with bronze tips were found here, stone tools of labor and Roman coins.
According to the legends, in the place where Kovel is now, once there was a small forge and a couple of houses, and the first settler of this area was a skilled blacksmith (Koval), so the village where he lived, and got the name - Kovel. The first written references to the village are dating 1310 year. In December 1518, Prince Vasily Sangushko with the permission of the Polish king Sigismund I assigned the title of the city with the provision of Magdeburg law.
In 1543, the city was in the Office of the Kovel Starright, which and landscaped him. In the late XVII century. And at the beginning of the XVIII century. The development of the city stalled, so the Polish kings gave it to rent. Kovel was announced by the county town of Russia.

Today, Kovel is one of the most progressive cities of the Volyn region.
