10 points4 km4 hours

The quiet, cozy town of Kirzhach has a rich history that goes back to St. Sergius of Radonezh. Its convenient location on the Stromynka Road helped all sorts of crafts and a lively trade to flourish here. We invite you to get to know the place better. Walk through the monastery founded by one of Russia's most famous saints, see the old silk mills and learn about an unexpected link between the poet Andrei Voznesensky and a town mayor who lived half a century before he was born.
