Stavropol, whose webcams can be viewed online on this site, was founded in the 18th century by decree of the then ruling Catherine II.
Initially, the settlement was supposed to play the role of a fortress, but the population quickly arrived on these lands, which made it possible, less than a century later, to turn Stavropol into a major economic center, where merchants and Cossacks mostly lived.
One of the notable events at the time of the founding of the city is that an Orthodox cross was discovered on these lands, which previously belonged to the Turks, during the construction of the fortress. How he got here is still unknown. However, this discovery formed the basis of the name of the city. In those days it was fashionable to invent Greek toponyms. And in translation from Greek, Stavropol means "city of the cross."
Today Stavropol is considered one of the most comfortable cities in the country. And its streets often win various "beauty contests".
The historical center of the city deserves a detailed inspection. You can start with the Grechishkin Art Gallery, which is located in a colorful building designed in oriental style. It was once planned to build a mosque here. Now in the galleries of the building you can see a stunning exhibition of works by Pavel Moiseevich Grechishkin, whose style is compared by many with Shishkin and Levitan. The collection includes more than half a thousand landscapes, as well as graphic works, sketches, photographs and documents.
Fortress Hill is considered the place of foundation of Stavropol.
At the same time, the fortress that was here has not survived to this day. In the middle of the century before last, the Cathedral appeared here. Near it is a cross, which is a symbol of the city. Nearby is an observation deck with a breathtaking panorama of the city.
Here, near the temple, a monument to the Liberator Warrior rises next to which a light and music fountain splashes. Since 1991, Krepostnaya Gora has been included in the list of reserved places in Russia.
For those who have not yet managed to visit these places, Stavropol webcams will show a lot of new and interesting things.
