Department of State Protection of Historical and Cultural Monuments. Cultural heritage sites: overview, register, laws. Department for the Protection of Cultural Heritage Objects. Megapolis in our time

Cultural heritage objects are immovable objects of cultural value for the population of Russia, as well as included in the world cultural heritage.

The concept of the objects in question

These objects have a special legal status... The considered category of objects includes:

  • real estate with an integral part of painting;
  • scientific and technical facilities;
  • objects of arts and crafts;
  • sculptures;
  • other cultural objects that have value from the standpoint of various sciences, technology and social culture are monuments and serve as evidence of the original birth of culture and its subsequent development.

Cultural heritage objects include: built-in real estate (memorial apartments), buildings located separately, as well as ensembles and complexes of various buildings, structures and other buildings. At the same time, these objects can be completely preserved, or they can be partially destroyed or be an integral part of objects of a later period.

Legal basis of the objects under consideration

The laws on cultural heritage objects in force in our country include:

  • ФЗ №73-ФЗ.
  • The law of the RSFSR, adopted in 1978 in the part that does not contradict the modern legislative framework RF.
  • The position of the Council of Ministers of the USSR "On the protection and use of monuments of history and culture" from 1982 in the same part.
  • Instruction No. 203 of the USSR Ministry of Culture from 1986, in the same part.

Features of the objects under consideration

Cultural heritage sites Russian Federation must have the following features:

  1. Real estate. Thus, movable property a priori does not belong to the considered objects.
  2. Historical and cultural value. If we take into account only the attribute "real estate", then all the apartments, summer cottages, garages that are available in the country can be attributed to the objects under consideration. Therefore, the subject of interest to us includes objects that have a certain scientific and technical interest (value) for different sciences and social culture. This value is determined in the process of implementation of the historical and cultural expertise, which is carried out at the initiative of the state.
  3. Age. In addition to memorial apartments and houses, which were recognized as objects in question as a result of the fact that prominent personalities lived there, other monuments are included in the register of cultural heritage objects after at least 40 years have passed since their creation or the occurrence of events of historical value.
  4. Special status. This status is acquired in a certain order by being included in the state register and the state list by decision of certain executive authorities.

The presence of these 4 features in the complex makes it possible to speak of the considered object as an object of cultural heritage.

Classification

All considered historical and cultural monuments are subdivided into sights, ensembles and monuments.

Ensembles are a group of cultural heritage objects that arose at the same time or supplemented each other in the process historical development on the same territory, as a result of the unification of which a single composition is formed.

The ensembles include monuments and structures located in an area that can be uniquely localized in territories that have developed historically, including with a religious purpose, as well as fragments of various settlements (buildings and layouts) that belong to urban planning ensembles; parks, boulevards, squares, gardens, as well as necropolises.

Places of interest include:

  • creations that were created anthropogenically or with the participation of nature;
  • the same fragments that can be attributed to ensembles;
  • centers of historical settlements;
  • various places associated with the formation of ethnic groups on the territory of our country;
  • ruin remains of the ancients settlements and parking;
  • places where various kinds of rituals related to religion were performed;
  • reserves recognized as cultural heritage sites.

Varieties of monuments

The monuments have a more complex classification. Let's consider it in more detail.

  • free-standing various buildings with the territories in which they are located historically;
  • separate premises of various religious trends;
  • separate burials and mausoleums;
  • traces of human existence underground or water, which can be hidden in whole or in part, as well as movable objects related to them;
  • scientific and technical facilities, including military ones;
  • works of monumental art;
  • memorial apartments.

In addition, the monuments are classified as monuments of history, urban planning and architecture, archeology. Their belonging to one of the varieties is determined during the preparation of the documents of the state registration of these objects and is established during the approval of the list on the acceptance of these objects for protection.

Categories

All considered objects, depending on their value, are classified into categories:

  • federal objects - of particular importance for the culture and history of our country, this also includes objects belonging to the archaeological heritage;

Criticism

The Department of Cultural Heritage (formerly the Committee on Cultural Heritage) is constantly criticized for the loss and illegal deregistration of monuments (followed by destruction or "restoration", consisting of the destruction of a monument and subsequent "restoration" modern technologies usually in concrete) under pressure from commercial structures

In the central part of the East European Plain between the Oka and the Volga there is a wonderful city of Moscow - the capital of our vast Motherland. In this metropolis, a lot of interesting places and objects of cultural heritage are concentrated. Moscow is annually visited by tens of thousands of tourists, many of whom come only for their sake. What are these places?

History of Moscow

An interesting fact is that historians have not yet established the exact date of the formation of the future capital. At one time, scientists put forward the assumption that the construction of Moscow dates back to the 9th century and the city was founded by Prince Oleg, but there is no documentary confirmation of this version.

Therefore, it is conventionally believed that the city was founded in the XII century by Yuri Dolgoruky (the son of Vladimir Monomakh).

Erected in 1147, Moscow (the city was first mentioned in the ancient Russian chronicles) began its rapid development. The reason was the advantageous geographic location united settlements, in which first the Finno-Ugric tribes lived, and after a while the representatives of the East Slavic tribal union (Vyatichi).

During the reign of Ivan the Terrible, the settlement received the status of a city and became the capital of the Russian state.

In 1682, Peter I became the Tsar of All Russia, and later the Emperor of Russia, who legalized the capital of the empire built on St. Petersburg.

Thus, from 1712 and for 206 years, Moscow was an ordinary city. And from 1918 to the present time - the capital.

origin of name

Before listing the cultural heritage sites of Moscow, it is worth saying a few words about the origin of the city's name. One of the assumptions says that the word comes from the language of the Finno-Ugric tribe: "mask" (bear), "ava" (mother). This opinion is based on the fact that in ancient times, many bears lived on the territory.

The most reliable theory boils down to the fact that the word "Moscow" comes from the ancient language of the Komi peoples: "moska" (cow), "va" (river). This option is confirmed by the fact that natural conditions This area contributed to the development of cattle breeding and, probably, a herd of cows always grazed on the banks of the river.

Megapolis in our time

Now Moscow is a world famous metropolis with a population of more than 12 million people and occupying an area of ​​2,560 square meters. km.

Local residents are proud of historical monuments: 566 monuments and 415 buildings associated with the history of Russia.

In addition, more than 60 museums, 105 theaters of different directions and many other unique objects function in the city.

The oldest part of the city occupies 27 hectares and amazes with the beauty of towers, cathedrals and palaces that attract tourists from many countries of the world.

Monuments of history and culture

The leadership of the Russian Federation pays great attention to the objects of the cultural heritage of Moscow.

On June 30, 2012, the Prime Minister of the Russian Federation Dmitry Medvedev approved their list. It includes objects of significant historical value.

The list was formed with the participation of artists, historians, representatives of restoration services and the public. It consists of individual buildings, structures, palace and park ensembles, monasteries, temples, and is included in all guidebooks for guests of the capital.

Popular among tourists are visits to the ensemble of the Moscow Kremlin, St. Basil's Cathedral, Novodevichy Convent, Arbat, Ostankino tower, Tsaritsyno estate, Kuskovo.

Kremlin

This is not just the most famous landmark of the Russian capital, but an object of the cultural heritage of Moscow and the most ancient building that has survived to our time.

In the 12th century, on the banks of the Neglinnaya River, at the direction of Yuri Dolgorukov, the construction of a defensive structure began, which later became one of the emblems of the capital.

Around the Kremlin, built of logs, the future city began to grow. The first wooden buildings, according to historical documents, were the Church of St. Nicholas, the Church of Daniel the Stylite (Christian ascetic, saint in the face of the saints).

All these structures have not survived due to repeated fires.

In 1326, the Moscow prince Ivan Kalita began to erect a stone fortification. The first temple on its territory was the Assumption Cathedral.

The Kremlin has been rebuilt several times. Its territory expanded due to the construction of new structures. By the end of the 16th century, the complex takes on an almost modern look.

By the way, the Kremlin, like Red Square, is included in the list of UNESCO cultural heritage sites. There are three such significant places in Moscow - the Church of the Ascension in Kolomenskoye and the Ensemble of the Novodevichy Convent.

St. Basil's Cathedral

The main building is decorated with a building that attracts the attention of all tourists in the world - St. Basil's Cathedral. The beginning of construction dates back to 1555 by order of Ivan the Terrible.

During that period of time in Moscow there were many people canonized by the church.

Among the wandering hermits, the holy fool Vasily was especially respected, to whom the royal nobility and Ivan the Terrible himself respected.

He died in 1552. Six years later, a church was erected over his grave. It is believed that this building gave the name to the temple, built in honor of the victory over the Kazan Khanate.

The religious complex, which has survived unchanged to this day, is a temple structure of eight churches, symbolizing the eight days of the battle for Kazan.

Novodevichy Convent

Another building included in the register of cultural heritage sites in Moscow. This ensemble complex is located not far from Luzhniki (Sportivnaya metro station).

There is a legend that says that during the Mongol-Tatar enslavement of Russia, a selection of beautiful Russian girls for the Golden Horde was made at this place. This belief explains the name of the current Orthodox women's monastery.

The construction of the temple complex dates back to the middle of the 16th century (1524) at the direction of the Sovereign of All Russia Vasily III (father of Ivan the Terrible). Its construction was timed to the return of Smolensk to the Moscow principality.

The temple is inextricably linked with the history of Russia: at one time there was a legendary person in custody - Boyar Morozova, in addition, at the direction of Peter I, Princess Sophia spent 15 years (under the name of Susanna) in the monastery walls, who did not want to voluntarily surrender power to her brother.

Now tourists have the opportunity to attend a church service, inspect the interior of the temple and spend time in the silence of the monastery park.

A visit by tourists to the Novodevichy necropolis, located on the territory of the temple, is allowed only as part of an excursion where you can inspect the graves famous people... As already mentioned, this is the third UNESCO cultural heritage site in Moscow.

Old Arbat

This famous promenade is also included in the register of Moscow cultural heritage sites.

In the center of the city there is the most famous pedestrian street with a length of about 1.5 km - Old Arbat.

Historical documents show that in the XVI- XVII centuries on the site of the modern street, there was a Kolymazhnaya Sloboda (a craft village) for the manufacture of carts and carts - carts.

A more convincing version is that the word comes from the short form "humpback", which characterizes the terrain: a curved part of the road.

In the 18th century, Arbat was mainly inhabited by artisans and merchants.

In the middle of the 19th century, noble nobility began to settle here, and the street gradually became a quiet and calm part of the city, where stone and wooden mansions were built, surrounded by gardens.

At different times, Sergei Rachmaninov, Alexander Scriabin, Lev Saltykov-Shchedrin and many other famous people of Russia lived here.

Now Old Arbat is a pedestrian zone. Many souvenir shops among museums of different directions, street artists, musicians, singers create an indelible impression on tourists.

Ostankino tower

It is considered a modern unique building. Ostankino
The radio and television tower, despite its relatively young history, is included in the register by the Department of State Protection of Cultural Heritage Objects.

In 1963 (the beginning of construction), the building was considered the tallest in the world.
Now this tower is considered one of the tallest structures in the central part of Europe.

The TV tower, built over four years, began broadcasting on November 7, 1967.

Tourists are given the opportunity to inspect the Ostankino structure as part of an excursion, where the guide will tell you that the height of the structure is 540 meters, and the total weight with the foundation is 51,400 tons.

Guests of the city can take a high-speed elevator to the observation deck located at an altitude of 340 meters, as well as visit the Seventh Heaven restaurant. A feature of this three-storey drinking establishment is the rotation around its axis at the speed of one revolution in 45 minutes.

Mansion "Tsaritsyno"

The Department of State Protection of Cultural Heritage Objects has included 21 mansions in the list of historically significant places.

The most visited is the Tsaritsyno palace and park complex (Tsaritsyno metro station).

The palace was built in the 18th century and was intended as the country residence of Catherine II. After a complete restoration of the cultural heritage site in Moscow (completed in 2007), this building is used as a museum "The History of Tsaritsyno".

On the territory of the palace there are Tsaritsyn pond and a landscape park, a walk along which will delight tourists of any age.

Mansion "Kuskovo"

The Kuskovo estate is considered one of the favorite vacation spots for Muscovites and guests of the capital. The address of the cultural heritage site in Moscow is Yunosti Street (Novogireevo metro station).

For 400 years, the palace building belonged to the Sheremetevs (representatives of the ancient boyar family).

After the completion of the restoration work, two ceramics and the Museum of the Kuskovo Estate were opened in the building. Tourists will be interested in taking a walk through the French Park, which is considered the most picturesque and oldest park in the capital of the Russian Federation.

You can talk for a long time about the historically significant places of this wonderful city. The Department for the Protection of Moscow Cultural Heritage Sites has compiled an impressive list of them. But above were listed those that really need to be visited at least once in a lifetime for every person interested in the history of our country.

Criticism

The Department of Cultural Heritage (formerly the Committee on Cultural Heritage) is constantly criticized for the loss and illegal deregistration of monuments (with the subsequent destruction or "restoration", consisting of the destruction of a monument and subsequent "restoration" with modern technologies, usually in concrete) under pressure from commercial structures. The department denies all charges. So, in October 2010, during the construction of a hotel in Maly Kozikhinsky Lane in the center of Moscow, the cultural layer was damaged. The department denies the destruction of the layer.

Immediately after taking up the post, Moscow Mayor Sergei Sobyanin fired the head of the Moscow Heritage Committee Valery Shevchuk, and transformed the committee into a department. This was seen as a populist measure to eliminate an unpopular official associated with the Luzhkov regime.
