Where the Volga merges
With Sviyaga, 50 kilometers from Kazan, stands like a lively tale of Pushkin about the island of Buyane - the island of Sviyazhsk. Sviyazhsk was built by Ivan the Terrible as an outpost to take Kazan. It became the first Orthodox city in our region, the center of the spread of Christianity. The architectural ensemble of present-day Sviyazhsk is a beautifully preserved temple, including the oldest wooden Trinity Church (1551), St. Nicholas Church and the Assumption Cathedral.
