Archaeological monuments of Bardymsky region

Currently, there are 45 archaeological sites in the Bardymsky region. These monuments represent the most ancient layer of the history of the population of the Bardym land, which cover a significant chronological period from the Stone to the Iron Age.

Most of the archaeological sites are located on the right (high) bank of the Tulva River. Settlements - the habitats of ancient people - were located on high capes, had a defensive system (ditch, rampart). In some cases, the defense system was complex and consisted of several ramparts and ditches. So the site of the Kudashevsky I settlement (Bakintau) was surrounded by eight ramparts. It is no coincidence that the territory of the monument is known among the local population as "Devil's Mountain". The ancient people made settlements in natural high places, using the relief of a certain area. For example, Krasnoyarskoe I settlement is located on a natural high hill, which stands out significantly from the rest. The fortified settlements of the district are subdivided into fortified settlements with dwellings and fortified settlements, in which people did not live permanently, but used them temporarily in case of danger. In the Bardymsky region, there are three refuge settlements: Kudashevskoe, Sarashevskoe, Kuzem'yarovskoe. Vaults are less common than settlements with dwellings.

Ancient settlements were located behind the rampart on high terraces near the fortifications, as well as in low places - in the floodplain of the Tulva River and its tributaries. Kudashevskoe settlement is located near the Kudashevsky burial ground. On the right bank of the Ashap River, in the Balanquak tract, there is an ancient site - Balanquak.

The burial grounds were arranged on the banks of the rivers opposite from the fortified settlements, on the low ledges of the root terraces. Probably, in a certain sense, the river "divided" the world of the living and the dead.

The habitats and burial places of ancient people were later included in the territory of nature reserves and have always been covered with legends. Thanks to this, they have survived to the present day.

Archaeological sites on the territory of the region are located in complexes consisting of several monuments. In terms of the number of monuments, the largest is the Bardymsky complex, which includes five settlements, five settlements. There are five objects in the Kudashevsky complex: three settlements, a settlement, a burial ground. The Krasnoyarsk complex is interesting: fortified settlements, settlements, a burial ground (six objects in total).

Museums

Museum business in the region is being developed by the regional museum of local lore in the village of Barda and a network of school museums. The main part of the collection is represented by exhibits dedicated to the traditional culture and life of the Bashkirs and Tatars, the history of the region.

Natural Monuments

There are 8 botanical natural monuments and one reserve - Tulvinsky - under state protection on the territory of the region.

The nature of the region is diverse and, in some way, unique for the Perm Territory. On the territory of the Bardymsky district, one of the first to be formed were specially protected natural territories of the Perm Territory.

Maple mountain

Maple Mountain is the cleanest maple forest in the Perm Territory. Nowadays, maple forests are rare in the region. The reserve is located on the Tulva Upland, near the Tulva River. A protected species such as Norway maple grows here. It is the most northerly location in the edge of an almost pure maple forest. The total area is 3.3 hectares.

Bardymskaya cherry mountain

"Bardymskaya cherry mountain" is located five kilometers east of the regional center. This is a tract with steppe cherry thickets - a valuable fruit shrub.

The steppe cherry of the Middle Urals has four varieties, it is very winter-hardy. She has small fruits, but they have excellent taste. Nowadays cherries barely bear fruit, which is due to excessive human activity. But older people still remember its taste. The area of the object is only 1.2 hectares.

Tract "Krasnoyarskaya Gora"

The tract "Krasnoyarskaya Gora" is a unique fragment of a forest-steppe of the Eastern European appearance, a relict forest-steppe complex. The vegetation is a mixture of cold-resistant, moisture-loving arctic-arctic, arctoalpine taiga grasses. This object is very interesting from a scientific and educational point of view.

Kuzemyarovsky hazel

Kuzem'yarovsky hazel is the largest hazel grove in the Perm region. Its area is 68.6 hectares.

Sarashevsky pine-oak forest

Sarashevsky pine-oak forest is the northernmost oak forest outpost in the Perm region. Protected species - English oak. Oak in the stand up to 70%. The age of the oak is 60-100 years. There are single oak trees up to 200 years old, up to 20-26 m high. Pine trees are about 100-120 years old.

Sights of the Berezovsky district

Archaeological sites

There are about 50 archaeological sites in the Berezovsky district. The largest of them are:

The Verkh-Sain settlement, which dates back to the 6th century AD. The Verkh-Saya settlement is located on a high promontory above the Shakva River. During archaeological site A whole bunch of monuments of the Nevola medieval culture was discovered. A huge amount of material was collected at the settlement: tools and weapons, jewelry made of non-ferrous metals, products made of bone and stone, numerous molded pottery. In the cellars of the settlement, charred grains of cereals were found - barley, rye, soft and dwarf wheat, two-grain spelled, oats. Possibly, the Verkh-Sain settlement is one of the ancient Finno-Ugric proto-cities of the Urals.

Bartym sanctuary of the 8th – 9th centuries AD. The outskirts of the village of Bartym are among the richest deposits of ancient Eastern silver, for which the lands of the Urals have been famous for a long time. Probably, ancient Russian documents of the XIV century speak of this ancient silver as “Zakamsk silver”, a special type of tribute collected from the population of the Urals. The Bartym silver finds are not associated with either the burial ground or the settlement. They were found on a large area during agricultural work with deep soil cultivation. The scattering of the finds and their very shallow occurrence in the soil speaks against attributing them to buried treasures. Most likely, there was a rich sanctuary in these places. The Bartym finds testify to the existence in the 1st millennium A.D. in this area of some economically strong center, which had the opportunity to concentrate a large number of imported precious things.

Historical monuments include the buildings of Orthodox churches in the village of Berezovka, the village of Asovo, the village of Sosnovka, and the village of Sazhino.

In 1982, a new building of the drama theater was built here, in 1985 - a monument in honor of the heroes of the war and a color and music fountain, which was later replaced by a more modern one. Nowadays, to improve the external appearance of the place and increase its attractiveness for residents, cultural objects continue to be erected here.

The composition also includes the figure of the photographer standing opposite, ready to take a picture with a rare camera. The monument is located on one of the central streets of Perm. It was installed in 2006. The name is associated with the traditional nickname of the inhabitants of the Perm Territory.

Another urban sculpture depicting the famous symbol of the city - a bear. She decorated the central part of Perm in 2009 (the first version of the monument was made of stone and installed in 2006).

The exposition is located in the building of an architectural monument - the Spaso-Perobrazhensky Cathedral of the late 18th - early 19th centuries, erected according to the project of I. I. Sviyazev.

The temple is one of the first stone buildings in the city. It is believed that the development of the city in the 18th century began with its foundation. The building was built in the provincial baroque style on the site of an earlier church. In 1929, the temple was closed as part of a general anti-religious campaign, while almost all of the valuable church property was confiscated. Services resumed in the 1990s after extensive restoration of the building.

The history of the monastery began at the end of the 18th century with the construction wooden church for the workers of the copper smelter. In 1816, the construction of a stone church began, at which a man's monastery was gradually formed. In 1935, the monastery was abolished, the main part of the premises was transferred to the production warehouses of the bakery plant. In 1995, the Holy Trinity Stefanov Monastery resumed its activities.

The temple was erected in 1902 largely thanks to donations from the townspeople. It became the last church in Perm built before the 1917 Revolution. In those days, the people called it "merchant". In the 1930s, after being confiscated by the authorities, it was converted into a bakery. In the 1970s, it was decided to restore and place it inside the concert hall. In 1991, the building was returned to the believers.

The picturesque Art Nouveau mansion is considered one of the most beautiful buildings in Perm. It was erected at the end of the 19th century according to the project of A. B. Turchevich for the family of one of the city officials. In 1905 the merchant S.M. Gribushin bought the house and rebuilt it according to his taste. In 1919, the merchant's family left Russia, and the building became the property of the authorities. At various times, a military hospital and a children's hospital were located on its territory.
