Historical information about the city of Kotelnich

The city of Kotelnich is the oldest urban settlement in the Kirov region. On February 1, 1963, by Decree of the Presidium of the Supreme Soviet of the RSFSR, it was removed from the administrative district and classified as a city of regional subordination, and since 2004 - a city district.

Located in the middle reaches of the Vyatka River. The population is 22.5 thousand people. (2021), of which 240 people. lives in the left bank part, communication with which is carried out through river transportation. Opposite the city across the river there is a natural monument of regional significance - an oak grove.

The historical center of the city is located on the right high bank of the Vyatka River in a deep (up to 35 m) and wide basin, along the bottom of which the Balakirevitsa River flows. According to archaeologists, the first Russian settlement near its mouth appeared at the end of the 13th – beginning of the 14th centuries. (Kotelnichskoye settlement) and was located near the border of settlement of the Mari tribes (Cheremis). A local source (“The Tale of the Vyatka Country”) dates this event to 1181, reporting that initially the city was called Koshkarov (Koksharov), and only later began to be called Kotelnich. During the Slavic colonization from the northern possessions of the Rostov-Suzdal principality (lands along the Sukhona River, Northern Dvina, Veliky Ustyug), the Kotelnich group of the population was formed around it, which was distinguished from the Vyatchans of the northern territories by a special clinking dialect. Its features remained in the speech of local residents until the second half of the twentieth century.

In Russian chronicles, Kotelnich was first mentioned in 1459. Until the end of the 16th century. the city functioned as a border fortress, first of the Vyatka Land, and from 1489 of the Moscow state. Its area reached 4 hectares. The Moscow Highway and the river route to Veliky Ustyug passed through the city.

Since the 17th century Kotelnich is the administrative center of the county, and since 1929 - the district. Since 1784 it was built according to the General Plan. By 1917, it had 5 long streets (run parallel to the bank of the Vyatka River) and 7 transverse ones, 3 shopping areas, a cathedral and 4 churches. Its territory was about 2 sq. km. (without forests and agricultural lands), population 6 thousand people. The economy was focused on serving trade. Through the pier there was trade in agricultural products with the cities of the north-west and the Volga region.

From 1647 to 1929, the Alekseevskaya Fair was held annually in the city. In the second half of the 19th century it was the largest peasant fair in the empire. With a turnover of 1 to 2 million rubles. Over the years, it took places from 7th to 22nd among similar trades in Russia. Renewed in 2007

During the imperial period, a significant contribution to the development of the city was made by the city mayors, merchants of the first guild Mikhail Ivanovich Kardakov (1856-1859) and Andrei Prokopyevich Kardakov (1862-1869), merchant of the second guild Alexey Yakovlevich Zubarev (1902-1906). The merchant S.S. Zyrin and the merchant's wife M.F. left their mark through their charitable activities. Samodelkina.

Since the beginning of the twentieth century, Kotelnich began to develop as a transport hub. Through the city on its western outskirts were built in 1902-1906 and 1913-1927. railways connecting St. Petersburg and Moscow with the eastern regions of the country, and later federal highways R-176, R-243.

On May 26, 1926, the city was almost completely destroyed by a major fire. Out of 11 thousand residents, 7 thousand people were left without a roof over their heads. The scale of the destruction raised the question of the future fate of Kotelnich for the authorities. It was proposed to leave it as a village. The need to restore the city was demonstrated to the provincial and republican authorities by the chairman of the Kotelnichsky district executive committee (1925-1929) Vladimir Grigorievich Vaneev. He was supported and made a great contribution to the restoration of the city by the secretary of the regional committee of the CPSU (b) (1925-1927) Azary Ivanovich Myshkin.

From the first days of the Great Patriotic War of 1941-1945. Kotelnich became a major mobilization and evacuation center in the Kirov region. Due to the evacuated population from Leningrad, Pskov, Novgorod and Leningrad regions, the number of residents increased from 18 (1941) to 32.5 thousand people. The city had 4 evacuation hospitals with 3,300 beds. After treatment, up to 50 thousand soldiers and commanders returned to duty and were sent to the front. In January-February 1942, the 109th Rifle Brigade was formed in Kotelnich, on the basis of which the 5th Oryol Rifle Division was later created. Local enterprises switched to producing products for the front. In wartime conditions, the work of the city council was led by Konstantin Grigorievich Novozhilov - until February 10, 1942 and Joseph Stepanovich Vokhmyanin - until 1945.

In 2010, on the site of the old railway station, on the initiative of the Vyatka Land charity foundation and with the support of the Governor of St. Petersburg V.I. Matvienko, a memorial was opened on the Gorky Railway, on the granite slabs of which the memory of 2,768 citizens of the Soviet Union who died en route during the evacuation from hunger, cold, disease and those who died in Kotelnich is immortalized.

For the labor heroism of the population during the war, by Decree of the Governor of the Kirov Region dated December 3, 2012, Kotelnich was awarded the honorary title “City of Labor Glory.”

During the Soviet period, as a result of industrial and economic construction, the city's territory increased to 29.4 sq. km. In 1989, the population reached a maximum of 36.8 thousand people, and then began to decline.

The construction of new microdistricts proceeded in a western direction from the railway, which divided the city into two parts: the eastern with the historical center and the western with buildings of the second half of the twentieth century. In the eastern part, the historical environment was predominantly disturbed. In the 30s of the twentieth century. The Trinity Cathedral, the Baptist Church, and the Church of Cyril and Methodius, located on the main street of the city, Moskovskaya, were demolished. Industrial enterprises and a river port were located on the central square and the associated coastal strip. As a result, the exit to the river from the center of the historical part was blocked. Currently, most of this territory is cleared of industrial premises and can be involved in urban planning activities.

Despite the losses, in the historical part of the city the layout of streets and blocks according to the General Plan of 1784, a significant part of the ordinary residential and public buildings of the mid-19th - early 20th centuries, has been preserved. The buildings of St. Nicholas Cathedral and the residential building of the merchant Lebedev were put on federal registration. 52 city-forming objects were recommended for state protection, incl. Gostiny Dvor buildings with 160 shops, a public bank, a district hospital, a zemstvo government, a city Duma, a women's gymnasium, a post office, a power plant, a water tower, a fire station, red barracks, arrest premises and police officer's housing, etc.

In the modern period, Kotelnich gained fame in connection with excavations at the Kotelnich site of pareiasaurs - one of the largest in the world. The location was discovered in 1933. The period of active excavations began in the 90s of the twentieth century. Along with Russian scientists, researchers from Australia, Canada, and Germany took part in them. During the work, more than 20 species of ancient dinosaurs that lived 220-250 million years ago were discovered, previously unknown to science. Based on the collections of finds, a paleontological museum was created in 1994 (currently a branch of the Vyatka paleontological museum). In 2012, in the center along the banks of the Balakirevitsa River on an area of ​​3.5 hectares. Dinopark was built, which helped attract attention to the city from tourists, whose number increased to 25 thousand people. in year. Meanwhile, the museum and the Dinopark are geographically distant. The construction of a paleontological museum building on the territory of the Dinopark, the expansion and creation of modern exhibitions would open up new opportunities for the development of tourism.

A promising direction for the development of the city is the continuation of work on the construction of the embankment in its historical part, which began in 2014. Observation platforms have been created along the high river bank up to 40 m, connected by pedestrian paths with access to the river. Continuing the work will make it possible to reach empty lands on the coastal strip of the historical center and create new public spaces here, which are lacking today due to dense development.
