Finnish trace in names

The starting point for our region as an administrative-territorial unit is the resolution of the People's Commissariat of Internal Affairs of the RSFSR, which decided to form the Ivanovo-Voznesensk province, the successor of which was soon the Ivanovo region.
This historic resolution was adopted on June 20, 1918. The regional center also became a city relatively recently. Only in 1871, the village of Ivanovo and Voznesensky Posad, which appeared somewhat earlier through the merger of several settlements, were united into the city of Ivanovo-Voznesensk. And the capital of the region received its current, shortened name in 1932. Although, as the famous local historian Alexander Tikhomirov notes, Ivanov’s roots still go back centuries, as evidenced by many archaeological finds. However, in any case, Ivanovo is much younger than many of its neighbors.

Before the Slavic expansion, the Merya tribe, belonging to the Finno-Ugric group of peoples, lived on the territory of the Ivanovo region. According to a number of historians and local historians, other Finnish tribes also lived in the region: the Muroma (in the southeast: in the lower reaches of the Lukh and Teza rivers) and the Mari (in the east of the region). Around the 9th century, the colonization of the Upper Volga region began by the Novgorod Slavs from the north and the Krivichi from the west. Gradually the Slavs assimilated the Merians and related tribes. But the memory of them was preserved in the names of many cities, villages, rivers and lakes: Kokhma, Molokhta, Ukhtokhma, Mera, Unzha, Nyomda, Nodoga...

Important selection points

The criteria for choosing a cottage will most likely be different for each future owner, but certain points need to be paid attention to:

Distance to city

Decide what distance from the city will be most acceptable, at what distance the new cottage community should be located. Typically, prices for cottages offered by sellers are lower if the distance to the city is further, but in an effort to save money, it is not advisable to forget that you will need to periodically travel to the city to resolve various issues, especially if the future owners of country property work in the city.

Infrastructure

Preference should be given to an option in which the main infrastructure facilities - shops, clinics, kindergartens or schools - were located in close proximity to the place of residence.

Transport

Availability of transport interchanges or public transport stops near the selected location. This point is often not taken into account. The car can break down, and if this happens, as usual, suddenly, a logical question inevitably arises - how to get to “civilization”.

Having selected several options that meet your needs in general, you need to familiarize yourself with the information about who is the seller of the cottage or townhouse. In the regional centers of megalopolises you can find many developers, but not every one of them can be reliable. Therefore, it is worth carefully approaching the issue of studying information about the seller of country real estate: how long has the developer been engaged in such activities, how many similar projects has he completed before? Even by familiarizing yourself with the appearance of the website of the real estate seller, you can get a clearer picture of him and accept the correct one. solution.

The next step should be to discuss the purchase issue and consult with the seller over the phone. you need to contact the sales department of the developer. In this case, you need to ask the sales specialist all your questions:

• existing infrastructure of the cottage village;
• applied construction technologies;
• presence of a management company;
• type of village security, access for unauthorized persons, security systems;
• about the terms of purchase, price, and other important points for the company’s future client.

There is no need to be shy, afraid to be overly persistent and scrupulous, afraid to make a bad impression - the buyer has every right to know everything about the house in which he will live.

If the telephone conversation left a pleasant impression, it is worth moving on to the next step - a personal inspection of the territory of the cottage village. Every development company is required to provide this type of service. In addition, the potential buyer will be accompanied by the company’s sales manager, who will try to show all the objects of interest to the client.

It is believed that the best time for such an excursion is the end of winter and the beginning of spring. At this time, you can see how well the stormwater and sewage systems function, whether the site chosen as one of the options is flooded, and how well the developer’s work is organized and the village itself is equipped. When conducting a tour, be sure to ask all the client’s questions again, and be sure to familiarize yourself with the infrastructure:

• pay attention to how electrical communications are made;
• how the heat supply to houses is organized (autonomous, centralized system);
• become familiar with the water supply system (centralized water supply, well)
• is there a centralized method for cleaning roads, areas adjacent to the house, storage and removal of waste;
• pay attention to the quality of roads and access roads to the cottage;
• Find out how gas is supplied.

The architectural structure of a village is extremely important for comfortable living in a village. All these questions need to be answered and visually verified that the information voiced by an employee of the development company corresponds to what was visually identified directly in the cottage community.

It is also important to inspect the house yourself, find out what materials were used during construction, what technology was used to insulate the house - the buyer has the right to receive the most complete information. This will allow you to make the right decision. When planning to purchase a country house, you will definitely need to use the services of a lawyer and order a legal examination regarding the papers provided by the developer for the cottage community in the Ivanovo region, which is supposed to be purchased, and analyze the purchase and sale agreement proposed by him. The help of a professional lawyer will allow you to have confidence in the legality of the future transaction.

Yuryevets appeared thanks to a dream

Professor Kirill Baldin said: “The founding date of Yuryevets is often called 1225. Although it is not confirmed by documents, apparently, the city was founded precisely in the 13th century, by Prince Yuri, the third son of Vsevolod the Big Nest.” The fortress city defended the northeastern borders of Ancient Rus'. In addition, this is an ancient trading center at the intersection of the Volga trade route and the Great Post Road from the center of Russia to Siberia.

According to legend, Yuri Vsevolodovich, returning from his nephews, stopped to rest at the mouth of the Unzha River. During his sleep, he had a vision of the icon of St. George the Victorious on the mountain that stands on the opposite bank. Having woken up and crossed, the prince found the icon, and on this place he founded a city, calling it after his name and the saint Georgievsky or Yuryev-Povolsky (Povolzhsky). According to another version, the city was founded even earlier by another prince Yuri - Dolgoruky in 1150.

Now in Yuryevets you can see the well-preserved ramparts and ditches of his last fortress, called the Stone Town. But to this day, its other name lives on - the White City, although now no traces of the white walls and towers remain. Unfortunately, Georgievskaya Mountain, the site of the founding of the first fortress, has not survived to this day (it was demolished for the construction of a protective dam on the banks of the Volga).

Interesting facts about Yuryevets

In 1237, Yuryevets was burned by the hordes of Batu. In 1536–1537 the city was plundered by the Kazan Tatars. And in 1556 he was discharged by Ivan IV the Terrible to the oprichnina.

At the beginning of the 17th century, Yuryevets was repeatedly attacked by the Poles. In 1609, the local centurion Fyodor the Red led the local militia, which liberated Lukh, Shuya, and Kineshma from supporters of the impostor. In response, Pan Lisovsky burned the city, but the residents of the surrounding area bravely fought back, and help that came to them from Nizhny Novgorod along the Volga saved the situation. The townspeople joined the troops of Pozharsky and Minin passing through the city, but the liberation of Moscow in 1612 did not bring stability. In 1614, the Cossacks of Ivan Zarutsky again plundered and burned Yuryevets, although they were later defeated by the governor Boris Lykov.
