Andrey is primarily in the Moscow Ring Road. Tour of Mountain Adjara with a visit to the waterfall

Next to the Moscow Ring Road on the Cross. It is a little deep in depth, and the driver's view, chained to the road, not immediately notices him. But if I saw, the impression is so strong that I want to stop. But it does not work. The inexorable car stream takes you further. And the man on the cross is sitting in the brain. Who is it? Why?

Then the man on the cross is gradually forgotten. And suddenly, by chance by passing by, again, as if shot to the brain - it's he! And again the flow of cars dictates its own rules. Or a plug from which it is not nourished, or a speed of 100 km / h and persistent beeps of cars and winks of headlights behind. We drove again ...

Once we understood: a crucified man at the Moscow Ring Road will not let us go. And we went to him specifically. Slowly rummaged right next and looking after some kind of platform nearby, so that you can turn on the accident and then go on foot. We were lucky: right at the cross turned out to be a small "pocket". We came to you, a man on the cross ...

To the question "Why?" Invents the inscription on the stone base.

To the question "Who?" Replies the plate just above.

The monument depicts the martyr's suffering of the crucified Holy Apostle Andrei First Called. This is a symbol of people repressed in the 30s who built the Moscow channel. At this place was the camp of the repressed, they were buried at this place. The monument was established on December 13, 2006 at the 76th kilometer of the Moscow Ring Road in the Khimki forest park, rightly close to the annular road.

"It was happening that the prisoners were exhausted, exhausted by unbearable difficulty themselves, together with the wheelbar, fell into the pita, fell into concrete and remained stamped in it. In some cases, "giving up" was taken to camp hospitals, but their days were already considered. Sanitary Dmitra G. Dolmanov recalled that part of the zekov was buried still alive. At first, doctors called genuine causes that led to death, but then they were banned. Every morning from Dmitrov, Yahroma, Oreva, Dedenhev, IKShi traveled graaring, loaded with corpses. In the forests, mass nameless burials of prisoners were arranged. Sometimes the dead "Dmitlegov" was buried on the outskirts of cemeteries. In winter, the corpses laid on the bottom of the pit with a pile, sprinkling the next "layer" sand, and left the grave not buried until the next day. " .

Dmitla, the largest lagination of the OGPU-NKVD of the USSR, existed from 1932 to 1938 and was located in the Moscow region and partially even in Moscow. Dmitla was generated by the Soviet punitive system, Dmitla was created to use the labor of prisoners on the construction of the Moscow-Volga Channel.

The monument with the crucified apostle Andrei was the first-called, on the initiative of the famous singer Vicky Tsyganova and her wife Vadim Tsyganova.

A crucified man at MKAD produces a very strong impression. And even if you even quickly dig history, the impression becomes tragic and empty. It is recommended to stop and see, even if you are very hurrying.

December 13th Ukrainians celebrate Andreevs day or day of memory of St. Andrew the First-Called.

Apostle Andrey Prozoznaya - One of the disciples of Jesus Christ. He was called "First Called" because he was the first follower of Christ. When the apostles distributed the lad among themselves, where each of them went to sermon, Andrei in the lot got the territory of modern Greece, Turkey, Crimea and the Caucasus.

The reverence of the Apostle Andrei on the Kiev lands came after the baptism of Russia in 988. Then, allegedly, a legend was born about visiting Andrey the first-hearted Kiev hills over the Dnieper, on one of which the apostle established the cross and the preintection of the Great Christian city with many churches.

Son Yaroslav Wise Vsevolod, in the baptism of Andrei, in the middle of the XI century built in Kiev the first women's monastery and called him in honor of St. Andrew. In the middle of the XVIII century on one of the hills over the Dnipro, the famous St. Andreevskaya Church was built - one of the business cards of Kiev.

In the XIII century on one of the hills above the Dnieper, on the alleged location of the sermon Andrei First-Called, the Cross-Promotional Church was built. Due to the briefness of the building material - wood, and frequent soil shifts, temples often destroyed and new ones were built instead. So while in 1744-1754, the order of Empress Elizabeth, the Stone Andreevsk Church on the project Bartolomeo Rastrelli was not built on this place.
