Vichuga / Sightseeing tour

City of White Columns... Doesn't that sound romantic? Someday I'll count how many of these columns there are.

A lot in Vichuga is associated with the name of Alexander Ivanovich Konovalov - manufacturer, Minister of the Provisional Government, emigrant and pianist. He was the first to introduce a nine-hour working day and two shifts in his factory. He built a hospital, a nursery, a people's house, a working village "Serezhino". All this adorns the city today, causing a sigh of bewilderment and admiration from guests: How? Why here?

The columns of the main building of the "Company of Manufactures of Ivan Konovalov and his son" are among the highest in Russia, and in diameter exceed the columns of St. Isaac's Cathedral. Within the walls of this huge production building already renamed in honor of the revolutionary Nogin factory in 1935. Dusia and Marusya Vinogradov set their world record.

In the People’s House, where the auditorium is the same as in the Moscow Maly Theatre, there are 80 rooms: a library, concert and exhibition halls, a banquet and here a sports one. The corridors are lined with Metlach tiles and even an old piano stands.

If this is not enough for you to make a decision, then this is the last one. The two churches of the Resurrection of Christ are White and Red. Both early twentieth century. Both are funded by local manufacturers. One in Bonyachki, the other in Tesino. Completely different and both amazing!

Vichuga can be connected to Kineshma (40 km), Shuya (60 km) is a ready-made tour for the whole day.

Transfer services from / to Ivanovo: a / m LADA XR CROSS, 2020, Mach 3 seats + children up to 12 years. Payable separately.

All images not taken personally by me or my friends are taken from free Internet access.

If we want to see the unique Majolica of the Red Church and a hospital more like a palace, we will need a car.

Dear guests! Since the city of my permanent residence Ivanovo, the cost of a tour of Vichuga = 4500 rubles (2-2.5 hours). And you need to book in advance :)
