Story

There was a human settlement on the site of the city until 1664, but after a big fire in 1662, an embassy of citizens was sent to Tsar Alexei Mikhailovich with a request to restore the settlement. The Emperor decided to build a fortress city here, because this was the height of the Russian-Polish War and the dramatic events in Ukraine (1654-1667). A city was built, surrounded by a wooden wall with 14 towers, 4 of which were roadways. Surrounded on all sides by swamps and rivers. In the city itself there was a Cossack hundred of the Sumy Cossack Regiment. At the height of the war with Poland, Sudzha was the center of its events. The troops of Voivode Romadanovsky arrived here from Moscow, the hetmans of Ukraine came here for negotiations, etc. After peace was concluded with Poland and Ukraine joined Russia, the city lost its military significance, but became one of the trading cities where the local merchants flourished. In the 18th century, Sudzha remained as a small trading city in the south of Russia. By decree of Catherine II in 1785, the city became a district center for the first time. Then its history and development freeze for many decades. Historical events pass through its lands, but do not change its appearance. Sudzha knows the era of great wars and revolutions. During the First World War, German troops appeared here; during the civil war, the city passed from hand to hand, being captured either by the Reds or by the armies of Denikin, Petlyura and even Father Makhno. The latter personally visited Suja. During the Great Patriotic War, this region was occupied by German troops and liberated on March 3, 1943. After the war, processing industry enterprises were created in the city - a butter factory, an elevator, a meat and poultry plant, a cannery and others. But they were small and could not radically change. But the good thing about the city is that the spirit of antiquity still lives in it. Legends about dashing robbers and mysterious ghosts, underground passages and miraculous icons are alive here. This is a living legend, a relic of our history. Artists L. I. Solomatkin, M. V. Nesterov, actor M. S. Shchepkin, aircraft designer M. I. Gurevich were born or lived in Sudzha at different times.
