Foundation of the Omsk fortress

At the end of the 16th century, the Oirat local population, with whom Russia had established diplomatic ties, asked to found a city on Om to protect against the attacks of the Khotogoit Khanate. However, in the 1620-1630s the situation changed. In particular, the Oiravas, who became part of the Dzungar Khanate, themselves began to cause concern to the residents of the Tara district. This was the reason that the local governor in 1627 sent messengers to the capital asking for the founding of a fort at the mouth of the Om. Although everyone understood the need for such a step, circumstances prevented its implementation for a long time. Under Peter the Great, under the leadership of Colonel Ivan Buchholz, an expedition was equipped that built a fortress on Lake Yamyshevskoye. Her appearance was received with hostility by the Dzungars, who besieged the Russian fort, and after the members of the expedition left it, they destroyed it to the ground. Nevertheless, Ivan Buchgolts did not give up and, going to the mouth of the Om, founded a new fortress there. Scientists believe that this event occurred on May 4-5, 1716 according to the old style, which means that the founding date of Omsk is May 16. Despite this, City Day has been celebrated on the first Sunday in August for several decades.

Story

The creation of the Omsk fortress, like other fortresses of the Upper Irtysh, was caused by the urgent need to strengthen the trade route to China. The credit for their arrangement goes entirely to the Siberian governor, Prince M.P. Gagarin. However, he also bears a large share of responsibility. Gagarin, being the governor of Nerchinsk, and then the head of the Siberian Order and the Siberian Province, devoted a lot of time and effort to trade with China. And above all, the organization of a trade route to this country. The main route ran from Tobolsk down the Irtysh, then up the Ob, then along the Ketsky volost to the Yenisei and further to the border with China. The journey was long, difficult and expensive. There was a second option - up the Irtysh, half as long and much easier. Kalmyk, Kyrgyz-Kaysak and Chinese leaders were interested in this route, since they all had their share of international trade. However, above the mouth of the Om, trade caravans were attacked by free detachments of Kalmyks (Oirats) and Kyrgyz-Kaisaks, with whom their rulers could not cope. Reliable security was needed and placed in stationary fortifications. One way or another, in May 1714, the Siberian governor obtained the tsar’s consent to build fortresses along the Irtysh and further along the existing trade route: in his report to the tsar on May 22, 1714, Gagarin substantiated the need to build fortresses along the river. Irtysh with the need to ensure communication and safety of the expedition going to the city of Yarkand for golden sand. The gold deposit was located beyond the Tien Shan ridges, on the territory of a neighboring state, in the Taklamakan desert. Prince Gagarin understood the consequences of this adventure, which, with a positive result, threatened a military conflict with China and Dzungaria. Of course, the Siberian governor did not expect that the military expedition would reach Yarkand. It was almost impossible and unnecessary. But the fortresses on the trade route will remain. And indeed, they remained. The Tsar believed the governor and signed a decree on organizing an expedition under the command of the former guards captain, Lieutenant Colonel Ivan Bukholts, and, accordingly, on the construction of fortresses on the Irtysh, above Yamyshev.[14][15][16]

On January 2, 1716, Matvey Petrovich Gagarin began his duties as governor and again actively began building fortresses in Siberia, including on Lake Kosogol, on the Yenisei and Irtysh rivers. Between 8 and 10 January 1716, the prince meets with the king and makes him an offering of a gold collection from ancient burial mounds looted along the coast. Ishim and Irtysh. At the meeting, Gagarin reported to Peter about his plans for the development of Siberia and received royal permission, presumably in the form of an imperial decree. On January 27, 1716, Peter I left for Europe, where he stayed until October 1717 and stopped receiving timely and reliable information from Siberia. In January 1716, Gagarin (with reference to the royal decree) issued his own order on the construction of a fortress on the border lake Kosogol, and in April - on the construction of fortresses on the Upper Yenisei.

On April 28, Bukholtz’s detachment left the Yamyshev fortress and moved along the Irtysh to the territory of the Tara region. Gagarin assessed the situation and gave instructions to Lieutenant Colonel Bucholz and the commandant of Tara to build a fortress at the mouth of the river. and sent recruits for reinforcements. By the end of 1716, the first fortress (fortified place) was built on the territory of the modern river station. It consisted of a pentagonal earthen fortress, gunpowder and food warehouses, barracks for soldiers, and houses for officers. The first Omsk fortress (fortified place) was practically a copy of the fortress built in 1715 near Lake Yamyshevskoye. And, accordingly, it carried the main drawback: the fortifications were scattered, the external fence was weak. When attacked by the enemy, the entire garrison had to defend the fortress objects separately from each other, which happened in 1716 during the defense of the Yamyshev fortress. The unsuccessful layout of the first Yamyshevskaya and Omsk fortresses was explained, first of all, by the lack of fortification experience among the builders.[17][18]

At the beginning of 1717, dragoon captain Ilya Gavrilovich Aksakov was invited from Russia. The governor rewards him with major and instructs him to lead the construction of a new (second) fortress at the mouth of the river. In the summer of the same year, the Omsk garrison under the command of Stupin went to the upper reaches of the Irtysh to build fortresses. Lieutenant Colonel Ivan Buholts categorically refused to lead a new expedition and in March 1717 he was sent from Tobolsk to the capital. There is very little information about the founding of the Omsk settlement and the construction of the second fortress. One of the most valuable sources of information is the list of documents from the Tara Chancellery, copied for Professor G.F. Miller in 1734. Professor V.I. mentioned this equipment. Kochedamov in 1960, and in 2015 it was published by Barnaul scientists V.B. Borodaev, A.V. Contev.[19] However, there are no drawings and, accordingly, it is unknown where and how to build a new city (fortress). A drawing “On the structure of the Omsk fortress behind the river prison and courtyards in a line” was sent from Tara to the Omsk fortress. In 1722, this drawing was used by captain-engineer Paul de Grange when developing a plan for a fortress on the right bank of the Om. At the end of the summer of 1717, Gagarin ordered the production of six bells for the Yamyshev and Omsk fortresses. The bells were produced by the military department in the amount of three per fortress. According to the drawing of the Omsk fortress of 1717, this is: a triangular guard redoubt at the mouth of the Om; a quadrangular fortress at the crossing of the Om and a pentagonal fortress at the yard. At the beginning of 1718, seven bells were made. Perhaps the seventh was intended for the Omsk settlement, on the right bank of the river. . It is not yet known whether the quadrangular fort and triangular redoubt were built. However, it is known for certain that the fortress (defensive structure) was built in a pentagonal shape, although not as regular as in the drawing. This is evidenced by the plans of 1745 and 1755. Moreover, the entire settlement (Omsk fortress, including the Cossack settlement and the main defensive structure) had the shape of an irregular broken quadrangle.[20]

In 1768, the Om fortress was moved. The original Tobolsk and restored Tara gates, together with the original German Lutheran church and several public buildings of the time. Omsk received city status in 1782.[21]

In 1822, Omsk became the administrative capital of Western Siberia, and then, in 1882, the center of the vast steppe region (today the northern part of Kazakhstan) and the Akmola region, in particular, the acquisition of several churches and cathedrals of various denominations, mosques, a synagogue, the mansion of the Governor General and military academy.[22] But as the frontier retreated and its military importance diminished, the city fell into lethargy. At that time, Omsk became a major center of Siberian exile. From 1850 to 1854 Fyodor Dostoevsky served his sentence in Omsk hard labor prison.

Inside the Omsk settlement (city of Omsk), a military settlement - the Omsk Fortress - lived its own life for about 150 years. By 1845, the structures of the Omsk fortress were half destroyed, which prompted the engineering department of the military department to petition for the abolition of the fortress. In 1864 the fortress was abolished.

The catalyst for the city's development was the construction of the Trans-Siberian Railway in the 1890s, which influenced Omsk's importance as a logistics hub. Many trading companies opened stores and offices in Omsk, which determined the character of the city center. British, Dutch and German consulates were created around the same time to represent their commercial interests. The pinnacle of development in pre-revolutionary Omsk was the Siberian Agro-Industrial Exhibition of 1910. The popularity of the World's Fairs contributed to the formation of the image of Omsk as "Chicago from Siberia".[23]

Soon after the October Revolution, anti-Bolshevik White forces seized control of Omsk. A "Provisional All-Russian Government" was founded here in 1918, headed by an Arctic explorer and decorated war hero. Admiral Kolchak. Omsk was proclaimed the capital of Russia, and its central bank was tasked with storing the gold reserves of the former empire. They were guarded by a garrison of former Czechoslovak prisoners of war who ended up in Siberia due to the chaos of the First World War and the subsequent revolution.[ citation needed

] Omsk became the main target of the Red Army leadership, who saw it as the main target of their Siberian campaign and eventually forced Kolchak and his government to abandon the city and retreat along the Trans-Siberian Railway east to Irkutsk. In 1919, Bolshevik troops entered the city.

Soviet period

State Library named after.
A.S. Pushkin , the Soviet government preferred young Novonikolaevsk (later known as Novosibirsk) as the administrative center of Western Siberia, which led to a massive transfer of administrative, cultural and educational functions from Omsk. This somewhat slowed the growth of Omsk and provoked ongoing rivalry between the two cities.[24] Omsk received new life as a result of the Second World War. Since Omsk was far from the fighting and had a well-developed infrastructure, Omsk became an ideal refuge for most of the industry evacuated from the front line in 1941. In addition, contingency plans were developed to move the temporary Soviet capital to Omsk. event of the German victory during the Battle of Moscow (October 1941 - January 1942).[25] At the end of the war, Omsk remained a major industrial center, subsequently becoming the leader of Soviet military production.

Leningradsky Bridge over the Irtysh

The military industry that moved to Omsk included part of the OKMO Tank Design Bureau 1941, S.M. Kirov plant No. 185 from Chelyabinsk, 1962. Kirov Plant and Omsk Transmash Design Bureau (KBTM) manufactured T-80 tanks of the 1970s, and were responsible for the BTR-T, TOS-1, and the prototype Black Eagle Tank. Omsk Transmash declared bankruptcy in 2002.

In the 1950s, after the development of oil and gas fields in Siberia, an oil refining complex was built along with an entire “oil town”, expanding Omsk north along the coast. Irtysh. Currently, this is the largest complex of its kind in Russia. Gazprom Neft, the parent company, is the city's largest employer, using its tax rates as leverage in negotiations with municipal and regional authorities.

Post-Soviet period

After the collapse of the Soviet Union, Omsk experienced a period of economic instability and political stagnation. Most of the city's large enterprises, previously owned by the state, were run by the former party elite. nouveau riche, and fast-growing crime syndicates. The most high-profile cases concerned the privatization of Sibneft, a large oil company that had existed for several years. Until the end of the 1990s. The political life of Omsk was determined by the ongoing hostility between regional and city authorities. The resulting conflict made at least two points of view accessible to the public and inspired some improvements to the city's infrastructure and cultural life. These include the construction of new recreation parks and the reconstruction of the historical city center, the establishment of the annual Siberian International Marathon, and the annual City Days festival. Despite this, internal political competition has depleted Omsk's resources and become a serious obstacle to the smooth functioning of the government and the development of the city.

Future…

Seventy years ago, the Assumption Cathedral was destroyed in Omsk. The temple was built according to the design of Ernest Virrich. This was the only work of the St. Petersburg architect on Omsk land. The temple was built in the style of Russian architecture of the 17th century in 1898. It was closed in 1923, and remained empty for almost a decade. In 1933 they began to dismantle it. Today the temple is being restored and July 16, 2007

— the first service will take place in the restored Assumption Cathedral.

Russian President Vladimir Putin signed the Decree “On the celebration of the 300th anniversary of the founding of the city of Omsk,” which will be celebrated in 2016. The same document instructed the Government of the Russian Federation to approve the composition of the organizing committee for the preparation and holding of the celebration and the plan of main events. The signing of such a Decree distinguishes the Omsk region as a subject of the Russian Federation, noticeable nationwide in its socio-economic and cultural potential. Already today, urban development projects initiated by the Governor of the Omsk Region largely equate the status of Omsk to the capital level. These are the metro bridge, the reconstructed Irtysh embankment, the Harlequin theater, the Arena-Omsk sports complex, the revival of the Assumption Cathedral, the reconstruction of the railway station, etc.

Most of the ideas that will determine the improvement, standard of living and comfort of Omsk residents for the 300th anniversary of the city have also already been laid down and are being implemented these days - including the construction of a metro, new roads, exhibition complexes, and a large-scale regional housing construction program is in effect.

The regional authorities pay special attention to the development of human potential - improving the demographic situation, ensuring accessibility to quality healthcare and education, housing, strengthening social support for the population, increasing the attractiveness of the scientific field, promoting a healthy lifestyle, and increasing employment.

Long-term and medium-term programs of the regional Government involve further expansion of foreign economic relations, growth of foreign trade and interregional trade turnover, development of scientific, technical and cultural interaction. All this will allow Omsk to approach this significant anniversary as one of the most comfortable cities for living.

Holidays in Omsk

As in many other Russian cities, recently the number of places available for recreation has been steadily declining. This is due to the compaction of buildings and the cutting down of trees. Despite the existing ban on swimming in rivers, there are several beaches in the city. From the point of view of nature, the Bird Harbor Park is of greatest interest, where natural reservoirs and wetland vegetation with wildlife have been preserved.

Thus, the answer to the question of which federal district and region of Russia is Omsk was given at the beginning of the article.

Transport

Picture Omsk Station
Omsk is a large railway, automobile and aviation hub. The city is served by a station on the Trans-Siberian Railway, and by the Central Airport. In addition, Omsk has a river port on the Irtysh, serving domestic flights and cities of Kazakhstan.

Urban transport consists of a large bus, trolleybus and tram network, although the latter has deteriorated greatly since the collapse of the USSR. minibuses

(minibus taxis) complement municipal transport networks.

And the metro system, proposed in the late 1980s but shelved due to lack of funds, is currently under construction. Irtysh River. The bridge is already open to cars (upper level), but the subway (lower level) is still under construction. As a first step, one short line will connect areas in the northwest to the city center. As of 2022, only one station is open, which serves as a pedestrian metro.

Migration

And although a year earlier migration was the only source of population growth, in 2022 everything has changed. The level of arrivals has decreased significantly, while the level of departures, on the contrary, has increased. According to Rosstat, there will be 13,513 arrivals in 2022, and 16,327 departures. Of these:

• Within Russia: 11,715/13,633.
• Interregional migration: 4,616/6,534.
• Intraregional: 7,099/7,099.
• International: 1,798/2,688.

Thanks to these data, we can say for sure that in the near future the population of Omsk will definitely not grow due to the influx of migrants, since they, for the most part, leave the region. According to surveys, most of the migrants came to work. The rest are mostly just tourists or exchange students.

Data for the Omsk region

The maximum increase in migration was noted in 2015, when 5.2 thousand people left the city and 12.6 thousand arrived. Then the level of migration gradually fell and reached the value that can be observed now.
