It is believed that in 1152 Yuri Dolgoruky founded Zvenigorod. True, Zvenigorod was first mentioned in documents in 1339, but archaeological excavations show that a settlement existed on this site even earlier - right from the middle of the 12th century. It is generally accepted that the city received its name for the number of churches that notified the townspeople about events and alarms by ringing bells. They talked about the ringing of the famous monastery bell, cast in the 17th century. He was the first to meet enemy raids and warned Moscow with a ringing bell. The city has many hills and there are also many underground springs and springs. And one of the versions of the etymology of the name says that Zvenigorod is not a “ringing city”, but a mountain “ringing” with springs. Zvenigorod is famous for the fact that Anton Pavlovich Chekhov lived and worked here in 1884. The writer replaced the head physician at the zemstvo hospital. For the picturesque hills and special nature, the surroundings of Zvenigorod are called “Russian Switzerland”. This is how the city is called for its picturesque views, low houses in the city center, hills and an abundance of greenery. In 1398, not far from the city on Mount Storozhi, the Monk Savva, a disciple of the Monk Sergius of Radonezh, at the request and with the support of the Zvenigorod prince Yuri Dmitrievich, founded the Savvino-Storozhevsky Monastery. At first, a wooden church was built in the name of the Nativity of the Blessed Virgin Mary. It was located on the high mountain Storozhe, in view of the Moscow River - the main transport route to the west from Moscow at that time, at the mouth of the Rozvadni river, later called Storozhka. Savva himself built a cave on the mountain, at a distance from the monastery, so that he could pray in solitude. In the 19th century, a church was built over the cave, which during Soviet times managed to serve as a hostel. 00:00 Moskovskaya st. 11:07 City Park 11:53 Raspberry Ravine 15:15 Stump of Chekhov's linden tree 15:26 Teahouse at Skete 16:22 Chapel of Sava Storozhevsky 20:30 Cave of St. Savva of Storozhevsky 23:09 Storozhka River
