A little history
Under the leadership of Prince Dmitry Donskoy, the city fortification was founded here - the Kremlin, which later became the historical center of Zvenigorod and was named "Gorodok" . But Dmitri's son, Yuri Zvenigorodsky, was the most supportive of the development of the city, he not only strengthened and expanded Gorodok, but and ordered the construction of the Assumption Cathedral on its territory - one of the best examples of early Moscow architecture, which, moreover, has survived to this day in its original form . The interior decoration of this cathedral is especially valuable because it is decorated with old frescoes of the 15th century, authorship of which belongs, according to one version, to the famous Russian icon painter Andrei Rublev .
Zvenigorod was experiencing the times of ups and downs, he courageously repulsed the attacks of the Tatar-Mongol yoke, staunchly endured the painful days of the great Troubles, but, nevertheless, he did not lose his wealth, but only in every possible way multiplied it. At one time the city prospered due to its successful location at the intersection of important trade routes. But already in the 18th century, with the reorientation of trade, the Zvenigorod economic life subsided.
But at the beginning of the century before last, the city became on the path of development as a notable resort center. Here from all over the Moscow region representatives of noble and rich families gathered to be surrounded by magnificent nature and in the conditions of the most favorable climate to spend the summer and improve their health. It was then that wealthy merchants began to build their luxurious estates here, as well as a picturesque city embankment, which is an excellent place for an evening promenade.
Of course, Zvenigorod does not stand still, there have long been modern residential areas, but they are away from the historical center, which takes us to the unique atmosphere of the 19th century, where there is not even a hint of haste or fuss.

Savvino-Storozhevsky Monastery
At the end of the 14th century not far from Gorodok was founded Savvino-St Orozhevsky monastery, the majestic and restrained beauty of which still does not leave indifferent any guest of Zvenigorod. . After nearly three centuries, the royal palace was built on its territory, where members of the royal family regularly visited, and gradually the monastery became one of the main places where Russian tsars turned to God . That's why the monastery has always been given a lot of attention, and generous donations contributed to its development and prosperity .
