A big walk through novocherkassk

Novocherkassk, or "Little Paris" was designed in the best traditions of European urban planning. It surprises with a variety of styles: from neo-Byzantine to eclectic and modern. My excursion is a concentrated acquaintance with the city, where there is a place for all its dominants, and full-fledged stories, and even an exciting quest!

What awaits you

All-all about Novocherkassk in 5 hours
I build a walk in the format of "journey through the eras" – from the first places of the founding of the city to the present.
For a while, we will become "witnesses" to the development of Novocherkassk, absorbing the diversity of architecture and contemplating monuments of different centuries.
Let's start with a rise to a height of almost 80 meters, to the bell tower of the cathedral, to see the "Second Sun of the Don" up close, admire the city from above and understand how it is arranged. Next in our list:

  • Patriarchal Ascension Military All-Cossack Cathedral, the second largest cathedral in Russia
  • monuments to Don Ataman Yermak Timofeevich and Ataman Platov
  • two triumphal arches built in honor of the Victory in the War of 1812
  • post-Yamskaya station, where Griboyedov, Pushkin, Lermontov, Glinka, Tolstoy, Bestuzhev and many other historical figures stopped and rested on the way to the Caucasus
  • the house of General Semyon Kurnakov, which became the largest hotel where Chaliapin, Kuprin, Gilyarovsky stayed and guests of the post-Yam station dined ...
  • Museum of the History of the Don Cossacks (with a visit to the museum)
  • Ataman Palace (+ excursion to the museum)
  • Alexander Garden with one of the old cast-iron fountains of southern Russia
  • Officers' Assembly House with an unusual ceremonial hall
  • complex of buildings of the Warsaw Imperial Institute (now the South Russian State Polytechnic University)
  • a number of unique in architecture mansions - mini-palaces, including "House with an owl", "House with a volute", "House with an observatory" and others
  • small but unusual churches in the Style of Russian Baroque with unique artifacts
  • museum — estate of the artist Dubovsky
  • the place of execution of NEVZ workers in 1962

On the tour, we will use the map more than once to find interesting historical places. It will be fascinating and informative!
