Alley of Anna Petrovna Kern in the village of Pushkin Mountains
Pskov region, Pushkinogorsky district, working village of Pushkin Mountains, Mikhailovsky territory
Description:
On both sides of the central spruce alley stretches Mikhailovsky Park, grown by Alexander Pushkin’s grandfather, Osip Ganibal. It is there that there is an alley of old linden, known as Kern Alley, where the famous lines of the great work “I remember a wonderful moment ...” were born.
If you decide to walk along Spruce Alley, you will see a path leading to the right, which will lead you to the Black Hannibal Pond. On all sides it is surrounded by a wall of trees in which herons nest. And the path leading to the left will lead you directly to one of the main wonders - the lime alley - Kern Alley.
Anna Petrovna Kern visited relatives in Trigorsky in 1825. The very next day, Pushkin read Kern a copy of the second chapter from Onegin, and in uncut sheets, Anna found a folded sheet of paper with poems: "I remember a wonderful moment..."
