Przhevalskoye ((ロシア語:Пржева́льское )) is an urban locality (a resort settlement) in Demidovsky District of Smolensk Oblast, Russia. It is situated northeast of Demidov in the northwestern part of the oblast, on Lake Sapsho. Population: It is a terminus of the Demidov-Przhevalskoye highway. The settlement is home to the Museum of Nikolai Przhevalsky, which occupies the mansion of the famous traveler. Previously called Sloboda (),〔Борисенков Ю. Новый рассвет над озером Сапшо // Поречанка. № 25/26, 31 марта 2006. — С. 4-5〕 it was renamed after Przhevalsky in 1964.〔(Культурное наследие земли Смоленской. «Здесь будет моё гнездо» Е. Гавриленкова )〕 The village of Sloboda was first mentioned in 1724 in connection with the building of the church,〔Епархиальные ведомости, 1901, № 11〕 although the place had been inhabited long before that. Scientists found ceramic products of the 4th or 3rd millennium BCE.〔Шмидт Е. А. Древнерусские археологические памятники Смоленской области. — Ч. I. — М., 1982. — С. 53〕 In the 4th-8th centuries, it was inhabited by the Krivichs.〔 People also lived in these lands at later times. Along the rivers and lakes (including Lake Sapsho), there was the trade route from the Varangians to the Greeks, and not so far away there was the second big city of the Principality of Smolensk called Verzhavsk ().〔(Городище (Вержавск) )〕〔Седов В. В. К исторической географии Смоленской земли // Материалы по изучению Смоленской области: в 4. — Смоленск, 1961. — С.317-326〕 In the 19th century, it was an outlying area with little economic activity.〔Межевая книга сельца Слободы, сочинённая 1849 года июня 18 дня уездным поречским землемером Подъельским〕 It was the reason why Nikolai Przhevalsky bought an estate here in 1881. In the middle of the 20th century, Przhevalskoye-Sloboda became famous during World War II for its partisan defenders.〔В. Гавриленков. Мы — горьковские! // Путь Ильича. № 31 (1087), 14 марта 1970. — С. 2〕 From September 1942 to September 1943, the front line ran through the village.〔К. Немцев. Бои местного значения // Путь Ильича. № 132, 14 ноября 1971. — С. 7〕 Almost all buildings were burnt. The partisans' staff was located in the partly ruined church. The settlement has been serving as a health resort since mineral waters were discovered in the 1970s, and a sanatorium (the largest in Smolensk Oblast was built in 1974.〔(Санаторий имени Н. М. Пржевальского )〕). Also in 1974, the village was granted the resort settlement status. Przhevalskoye is also a part of Smolenskoye Poozyorye national park. ==Sights== *Tumuli by Lake Sapsho *Lake Mutnoye (sapropelic mud) *Lake Sapsho with its six islands and one “under-water island” *Museum of Nikolai Przhevalsky; the only such museum in Russia *The church of the Ascension 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Przhevalskoye」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
