The richest manor Demidov, in addition, secretly engaged in the fusion of Siberian silver . "The Gold Bottom" of the 19th century still stands on the most real gold deposits, however, in order to reach them, it will be necessary to demolish the city, and hence, the unique sights of Petrine Russia .

Entertainments, excursions and sights Nevyansk

Center Nevyansk is modestly crowned with a small monument to Lenin . From here you should start your acquaintance with "glands" city ​​". In general, there are many old houses in Nevyansk, the number of architectural monuments reaches 60 . True, the state of the vast majority leaves much to be desired . Therefore, while artifacts are not completely lost, it is worth looking at, for example, the merchant's mansion Nosov of the end of the 19th century, an amazing example of everyday life and architecture of that time . The town estate of the merchant Selyankin of the middle of the 19th century looks a bit better and more picturesque .

The Holy Trinity Church is offended with a dome that was shot down in Soviet times, which has not yet been restored. But the Savior-Transfiguration Cathedral, one of the most beautiful temples of the Urals, looks majestic and triumphant. His special pride is the highest church bell tower in Siberia.

Nevyanskaya tower

Here we got to the symbol of the city - the legendary mysterious "falling" Nevyansk tower, on the spire of which for the first time in the world a lightning rod was used and this for several years before its official opening.

Nevyansky necropolis

Another relic, which, like the apple of his eye, is kept by the city, is the Nevyansk necropolis. The history of Russia is seen in each of the ancient graves, many of which date back to the 19th century. The most unusual gravestone unwittingly becomes the hero of numerous photoshoots of tourists who convulsively hurry to capture themselves next to the inscription: "The body of the escort Fedot Zotov, the wife of Tatyana Mitrofanovna of the kind of Medovshchikovs, who died after 70 years of life in 1802 July 11, was buried."
