Sovetskaya Street

Soviet street is one of the most important transport facilities of Serpukhov. On the street there are several ancient buildings and monuments.

In pre-revolutionary times, the street was called Nikolskaya - after the Serpukhov Cathedral. The street was designed in the era of Catherine the Great and became a stronghold of the master plan for the development of the city of Serpukhov. A long path connected the northern regions of the settlement with the Nara River. Later, a railway station was built in the north, to which the road led along Nikolskaya Street.

The main architectural sights of Soviet Street are the building of Nikolsky Cathedral, built in 1857, and the building of the Zemstvo Council, completed in 1860. Also, walking along the street, you can see the monument to Prince Vladimir the Brave, the hero of the Battle of Kulikovo and the famous Prince Serpukhov.
