Among all Moscow districts, some have an unusual history, others - interesting names. The area of Maryina Grove (Moscow) is a place that can boast of both. In this article we will try to understand why he was mentioned in his works by VA Zhukovsky, and V. Vysotsky in songs.

Description

The area of Maryina Grove (Moscow) currently belongs to the North-Eastern Administrative District and is located north of the Garden Ring. The same name is borne by the municipal entity. Marina Grove is the most southern region of all the others in NEAD (Moscow). The area of the district is 4.68 square kilometers; The population of the census for 2016 is about 67 thousand people.

Marina Grove: the history of the district

The origins of the appearance of the area under the name of Marina grove go back to the 18th century, when this place was not yet an independent unit, but was part of the Ostankino village and was named so because it was not far from the village of Marino. According to the first version, the settlement received such a name in the XV century in honor of the boyaryni Marya. She was a rare beauty and had a wife boyar son Fyodor Goltayu, the owner of this territory in those days. Other information indicates that Marya was called the fearless ataman, the leader of the bandit band. This assumption is due to the fact that up to the XVIII century. The territory of the present-day Maryina Grove was part of a huge forest range - a favorite haven of bandits.

Whatever it was, the historical documents tell us that "the village of Maryina Sloboda" grew rapidly; By 1646 there were already 80 households and about 200 people. Boyarin IV Cherkassky, and later successors of his family, and in particular nephew Y. K. Cherkassky, became patrons for various kinds of artisans, who served as a support for a stable improvement of the territory.

The times of the Petrine reforms were the force that temporarily slowed the pace of development of Marino, as most healthy and strong men in the prime of life were recruited as recruits. The statistics of 1709 indicate that there are only about 50 male souls left in the village. In addition, 6 households were empty, and 2 more - extremely poor. Subsequently, the line of princes of Cherkassk in the male line was interrupted; The daughter of the last male representative, Alexei Mikhailovich, named Varvara, became the wife of Count PB Sheremetyev, and from that time on, in the 18th century, Maryino became the patron of this family name.

The beginning of the XIX century is marked by the fact that Marino, or as it was called already from the XVIII century. Marina Grove, becomes a place popular with Muscovites who do not have the opportunity to travel far from the city to their own country estates and estates. The walks in the Marina Grove regularly acquire the widest scope, in connection with which then the novice poet VA Zhukovsky wrote his sentimental romantic story "Maryina Roshcha" (1809), which caused the tears of many young girls. This place was also devoted to the performance "Semik, or Walking in the Marina Grove", MN Zagoskin's essay "Marina Grove", references to M. Yu. Lermontov and others. Gradually, however, spreading shady trees of the grove were cut down, and plots of land began to be leased. Interest in the Marina grove fell ...

However, not all. In the unstable periods that preceded the formation of the Soviet Union, the district again, as if zakoltcevav own history, has turned into a place of accumulation of unreliable elements: thieves, robbers, criminals, second-hand dealers of stolen, runaway prisoners. For a long time, the area of Maryina Grove (Moscow) was associated with a lack of livability and unreliability: there was no sewerage, and in the wooden, flimsy huts lived a simple working class. The impetus to the serious development of this area was industrialization, in particular, the construction and opening of a large enterprise "Caliber" - a plant that was the only one in the whole USSR to produce accurate measuring instruments.

Features and architecture of the underground

The area of Maryina Grove (Moscow) is famous not only for its rich history, but also for the beautiful metro station. It opened relatively recently, only in 2010, after a 2-year construction. The station is the last one, built under the former Mayor of Moscow Yuri Luzhkov and the head of the metro Gaeva. The architectural features of the station include the lining of its walls with light marble, as well as installed on the exit panel, which depicts princes Sheremetyevo - the historical rulers of these places. It is curious that in 2016 the Lublin-Dmitrovskaya line was extended. Today, through the Maryina Grove station, which is located in NEAD (Moscow), a large number of Zelenograd residents are passing by, who daily arrive in the capital for work, get to the station "Petrovsko-Razumovskaya" and go further to the city center.
