Samara province was formed in 1853 on the lands allocated from Kazan (northern part of Stavropol district), Orenburg (Bugulminsky, Buguruslansky and Buzuluksky counties), Simbirsk (Samara district, southern part of Stavropol district) and Saratov provinces (Novouzensky Nikolaevsky counties) ... The distribution of the territories of the counties of the province was not uniform: the Nouzen district in its territory exceeded the Bugulma and Stavropol three times, the Boguruslansky two times, etc. Nikolaevsky and Novouzensky counties were the largest in the Samara province. The Samara River divided the entire Samara province into two almost equal parts: into the southwestern part, which included the Novouzensky district and half of the Samara and Buzuluk districts, and the northeast, north of the Samara river, which consisted of the northern parts of the Samara and Buzuluk districts and the Stavropol districts. , Buguruslansky and Bugulminsky. Among the Volga provinces of the Russian Empire, the new Samara province ranked second in terms of territory after the Astrakhan province.

History

Early history

The entire space now occupied by S. province, at the beginning of the 16th century. it was occupied by nomadic aliens: to the north, in the present. Stavropol district, Nogai Tatars, who, with the onset of spring heat, wandered with their herds along the meadow side of the Volga to the river. Kama; in the present. Buguruslansky, Bugulminsky and Buzuluk districts - nomadic Bashkirs and Kalmyks, to the south, in Nikolaevsky and Novouzensky districts - Kyrgyz and Tatars.

The beginning of the penetration of the Russians

Russian settlers began to penetrate here from the second half of the 16th century, after the conquest of the Kazan kingdom. At first, crowds of fugitive schismatics, landlord peasants who fled from landlord oppression, etc., came here. After the construction of the city of Samara, the government began to send here whole detachments of foreign servicemen, who were paid for the service of fishing, boarding grounds, beaver rutters, and so on. Among the Bashkirs, after the conquest of the Kazan kingdom, Chuvash, Mordovians, Cheremis, who came here from the present, voluntarily settled. lips. Penza, Ufa, Kazan and Simbirsk. These latter were engaged in more agriculture in the Bashkir lands; the Bashkirs owned them like serfs, took tribute from them, forced them to do corvee and all kinds of in-kind duties.

Resettlement of Kalmyks

At the beginning of the 17th century. Kalmyks appeared from the banks of the Urals to the northern edge of the region as a result of the rumor that spread between them that the r. The Volga is larger than the Urals and is more free for nomadic herds. In the spring of 1634, the Kalmyks set off with their wagons and accidentally stumbled upon the Nogai Tatars, which stretched out in 40,000 wagons along the northern shores of S. Luka up to Simbirsk. A battle took place between both tribes, which ended in a complete defeat for the Nogai. The Kalmyks took possession of the entire Volga meadow space.

As the Russian colonization wave spread and expanded here, clashes began between Russians and nomadic aliens. The Russians constantly complained to the government about their oppression by the Kalmyks and Bashkirs, the latter about the Russians. In 1644, the government sent troops to the northern region against the Kalmyks, under the leadership of the governor Pleshcheev. Pleshcheev defeated them and subjugated them "under the high tsarist hand, so that they, the Kalmyks, could have a general bargaining in the sovereign's cities, and they would not come to the sovereign's cities and districts by war."

Building lines of fortresses

For the safety of the Russian peasants and merchants who settled in the northern region, the government decided to build lines of fortresses along the rivers. In 1652, the construction of the Simbirskaya line (within the current Stavropol district) was started, along the left bank of the river. Volga and on the right bank of the river. Cheremshan, for which it was ordered to expel "people who were raised - Cheremis, Chuvash and Votyaks." First, a fortress was built from "pine logs" in the mountains. Belom-Yar, where they were sent for eternal life from the Kazan province for settlement. 100 mounted service Cossacks and 9 people. exiles. The next fortress was built in the city of Eryklinsk, with 6 towers and a messenger bell. Here are settled 150 arable peasants from the village of Chalnov (near the town of Elabuga, on the bank of the Kama River), arranged in the Cossack service. “If there are servicemen,” the order said, “the archers and peasants will not want to leave the village of Chalnov, then they will be expelled from the villages and for disobedience to beat batogs and imprison them”. From Eryklinsk the line stretched through the dense forest to the mountains. Tiinska, on the Tii river, where a prison was also built. In 1653, 50 horse archers with families from the Akhtachinsky prison and 100 Chalny arable peasants were transferred here. When Smolensk was taken from the Poles in 1654, 141 people were evicted from there and from Polotsk to Tiinsk together with the Cossacks. Polish small gentry, which even before "the generalists of the Polish kings carried the serf service." Another party of the Polish gentry settled in the settlement. Old Kuvake and Staraya Pismyanka now. Bugulma Uyezd As a result of complaints from the gentry and peasants to the government that they were "scared to live by the military people on the Zakamsk line," in 1670, the construction of a "city with a tynom" on the river was started. Main (now the village of Staraya Maina). The peasants from the lips were moved here. Nizhny Novgorod, Kazan and Simbirsk. Until 1830 Polish gentry were considered arable soldiers or youngsters. Another line of fortresses (Zakamskaya) was started by construction in 1727 from the suburb of Alekseevsk to the suburb of Sergievsk, along the Soka River. From all over the Kazan province were assigned to work on the construction of the line. 15,000 people who were endowed with land (foot for 18 dess., Horse for 55 dess.). In three years, the fortresses of Kundukcha, Cheremshan, Kichuy, Sheshminsk were built.

Under Anna Ioannovna, in 1736, the line of fortresses continued along the river. Samara from Samara to Orenburg: fortresses Krasnosamarskaya, Borskaya, Buzulukskaya, Totskaya, Sorochinskaya, Olshanskaya (Eminka village), Novoserpovskaya. All fortresses were surrounded by ramparts, ditches and wooden walls, with slingshots, wooden towers and round corners; cast-iron cannons were placed on the towers. Between the fortresses, more redoubts were made, occupied by the Cossacks. Cossacks were settled in 5 fortresses, including 1078 people. and, in addition, 12 Kalmyks, 41 raznochinets, 19 Nogai and 6 people. exiles.

Bashkir unrest and Pugachevshchina

The Bashkirs, believing that the fortresses could serve as a bulwark against their raids on Russian settlers, rebelled, including more than 20,000 people. and, despite the government's assurances that the fortresses were built against the Kirghiz and Nogai, they continued to burn down and ravage the villages, and beat and take people in full. In 1740, the government sent troops to pacify the Bashkirs, which destroyed more than 700 Bashkir villages; 16,000 people died in the battle. Bashkir.

However, the Bashkirs did not calm down soon and for a long time still served as a storm for Russian settlers. When P. Pallas visited the fortresses of the Samara region in 1769, he found them in a very poor condition. The Pugachev movement found significant support in the Kalmyks and Bashkirs. It was suppressed here in 1774 by General A.I.Bibikov. In the districts of Buzuluk, Buguruslansky, Bugulminsky and Nikolaevsky Bashkirs there are now 40 628.

Since 1738, the government has tried to populate the left bank of the river. The Volga (in the Stavropol district) by Russian peasants with the aim of accustoming the Kalmyks who were still roaming here to agriculture, but to no avail; therefore, in 1842 it evicted them to the Orenburg province.

Enhanced colonization

Increased colonization of the present S. lips. began only from the second half of the XVIII century., especially in the south, where in the XVII century. only small groups of fugitive walking people settled, constantly at war with the wandering Kyrgyz and Tatars.

For the settlement of the present Nikolaev district, schismatics who fled there from persecution in Russia were called from abroad. They were given 70 thousand dessiatins for use. land, a six-year exemption from taxes and duties was granted, and the unhindered confession of their faith was ensured. They settled in whole villages along the banks of the river. Big Irgiz. At the same time, the Molokans, who founded several villages since 1792, and German colonists from Württemberg, Baden, Prussia, Bavaria, Kassel, Hesse-Darmstadt, Saxony, Mecklenburg, Switzerland, etc., arrived here. In most cases, the first German the colonists were completely incapable of farming. German colonists settled along the left bank of the river. Volga among 25,000 people. and occupied the houses already built in advance by our government. Each German family received on its share 2 horses, 1 cow, seeds for sowing and agricultural tools. From 1766 to 1788, German colonists founded 36 colonies on the banks of the Volga. From 1778 to 1858, 43,017 souls settled here.

2.France, 1706

A fragment of the map of Tartary by the French cartographer Guillaume de Lille, published in 1706. It probably relied heavily on the previous map. In general, it is clear that de Lisle had a rather mediocre idea of ​​the area, but later he seriously improved his knowledge, not without the help of the Russian tsar.

3. France, before 1726

The next map is by Guillaume de Lille, made between 1717 and 1726. After a trip along the Volga and his visit to Samara, Peter I met in 1717 with de Lisle in Paris, where he told him a number of information about his country. Probably, the information told by the Russian tsar served to make adjustments.

Place names have been added to the map. For example, the Usa River appeared. In addition, it is curious that in several places on it are marked ruins that the cartographer connects with Tamerlane. Perhaps Peter himself told the cartographer about them.

At the same time, Syzran is not on the map, which already existed by that time.

4. France, 1752

The map, compiled in 1752 by the future cartographer of Louis XV, Gilles Robert de Vogondy, is part of the atlas of Russia that he created jointly with his son. On it you can already find a number of settlements that still exist.

Tsarev Kurgan is no longer just a mountain, but a whole settlement. Osinovka and Novinki are marked on Samarskaya Luka. The Alekseevskaya fortress is depicted near Samara (the present Alekseevka near Kinel). There is also Khryashchevka on the map. And for the first time Syzran appears in this collection.

5. Austria, 1787

Map published in Vienna at the end of the 18th century, including Denmark, Norway, Sweden and European Russia. Although it has not been worked out in detail, it is clear that, according to the views of the cartographer, Samara was in Asia. The border of the parts of the world is drawn along the Kama, and then along the Volga.

Krasnosamarskoye and Borskoye appear on the map, which were not on the previous one. At the same time, Stavropol (today's Togliatti), which by that time has existed for almost half a century, is not on the map.

6. Netherlands, 1827

The map was created by the eminent Flemish cartographer and geographer Philip Vandermelin shortly before Flanders became part of Belgium, separating from Holland.

This map already contains Stavropol, Syzran, and many other settlements that still exist today. At the same time, there are also quite outlandish ones for us. For example, Zhigulina Truba on Samarskaya Luka. The spelling of the name "Kurumoch" in two words is also interesting - Cour Oumotch.

7.Great Britain, 1835

Map issued by the British Society for the Dissemination of Useful Knowledge called “European Russia. Part VII ". The society existed between 1826 and 1848.

The map already contains almost all the main settlements of that time from Bolshaya Glushitsa to Usolye. Sulfur deposits were noted near Sergievsk.

8.Germany, 1875

The map was compiled by a German cartographer from Thuringia at the beginning of the 19th century for a world atlas, and then supplemented after his death by his students. The fragment presented was first published in 1875, and the atlas itself was widely used in various editions and was repeatedly published in Germany until the middle of the 20th century.

Rozhdestveno appears for the first time on this map in our selection. There is even the current Oktyabrsk - Kostychi. It is interesting that opposite them, across the Volga, you can see a large lake called Bashkir. Now it is almost dry and is a tiny pond in the village of Natalino, Bezenchuksky district.

Located in the village of Dergachi, Samara region. It was built in 1909. It was destroyed in Stalin's times. At the moment, there is a restoration project, but due to the financial difficulties of the region, the temple will not be restored. At the moment, the temple has preserved frescoes on the vaults of the walls.

A wooden church on a stone foundation is located in the village of Pavlovka, Samara region, was built in 1866. In 1885, Bishop Seraphim of Samara and Stavropol consecrated the throne in the name of the Archangel of God Michael. At the moment, the church is in a deplorable state, the ceilings are rotten, the ceiling has collapsed in places, wall frescoes of God's faces have been preserved.

The historical complex "Samarin's Estate" is located in the Volga village of the Samara region. The complex was built in 1885 in the Byzantine style. On the territory of the complex were built - 4 churches, a stud farm and stables, a distillery, a greenhouse, a beautiful grove was planted, a pond was created, two orchards were laid and a greenhouse was planted. After 1917, the manor building was used by the party and Soviet authorities. By the middle of the 20th century, the house ...

The church was founded around 1711. Until 1936, the Red Army came to these places to fight the believers who stubbornly did not want to give up their faith. Until 1936, people were shot several times because of this. In 1936, the Red Army men rode up again to blow up the church. But the remaining residents tried to obstruct. It ended with the shooting of women, children and the elderly. They left the wounded and corpses in ...

Abandoned cinema in the abandoned Timiryazevsky park. A haven for local drug addicts. All that remained of the cinema was the walls and ceiling, no windows, no doors, no swag. There is a non-working fountain in the park. The territory of the park is already decently overgrown with bushes and trees, in the absence of care for it.

On the site of the construction of this chapel, on September 25, 1911, the staff captain of the artillery Alexei Nikolaevich Lyupov was brutally killed. The chapel was built by his brother, Semyon Nikolayevich Lyupov, in 1913. The building was built from limestone blocks. At the moment, apparently abandoned, but the inscription on the plate indicates that this object is protected by the state.

The church was built in 1714 and is the oldest church on Samarskaya Luka. There is a legend that it was built by Count Menshikov for the miraculous rescue of Nicholas the Wonderworker during a storm on the Volga. Inside, frescoes on plaster have been preserved, but decorative stone decoration has been completely lost.

This house is located in the small, almost abandoned village of Askula in the Samara region. The house belonged to the rich and prosperous peasant Chukin. His exact fate is unknown: someone says that he disappeared in the Gulag, someone says that he was dispossessed and he left for Kazakhstan. The locals managed to find out that later the house had other owners, as evidenced by the bricks with the initials that you can find in and around the house, unfortunately a photo of this ...
