Souvenirs

You can buy souvenirs with urban symbols, as well as paintings by local artists in the Art Gallery or in the House of Crafts (st. Makarova, 15). Kineshma felt boots once competed with Kostroma and Yaroslavl for the title of the best in the country. The craft is gradually being revived, and now the valenki are made both by the factory method (in Kislyachiha village) and manually - there is a famous Sokolov family in Kineshma, who creates these original shoes using old technologies.

Restaurants

Let the restaurant "Kineshma" (st Sovetskaya, 23) does not frighten you with its “Soviet” look, they cook tasty things here. Try the signature dish - Kineshma deep-fat fritters. The “Russkaya izba” tea house (Volzhsky Boulevard, 2) is a place famous for the fact that at the end of the 19th century the tea society of sobriety was located here. The menu is varied, but prices are not as democratic as we would like. There is a very decent Uzbek cuisine in the canteen at the River Port Authority, there are complex meals.

Excursions, entertainment and sights of Kineshma

Architecture

It is perfectly logical that the main and most picturesque street of the city is the Volga Embankment, or Volzhsky Boulevard . Of the notable buildings is the red brick manufacturer’s house . - Kineshma river (from Kuznetsk to Nikolsky bridge) .The house on the street . Sovetskaya, 1, built by the Polenovs merchants in the middle of the XIX century, was once the most posh in the city . However, it is worth it to see it now . Red and white shopping malls and a building Bank of the late XIX century, used for its intended purpose . Square of Revolution Kineshemes jokingly called "sloping incomprehensibility", it is, however, with a slope, and is well suited for various entertainment events .

And Kineshma Drama Theater . A. N. Ostrovsky (Sovetskaya Street, 12) - the oldest of the provincial theaters of Russia.

Kineshma Temples

Two cathedrals rise right on the high bank of the Volga River: the Assumption (XVIII century) and Trinity (XIX century), between which the slender spire of the bell tower rushes into the sky - the main decoration and architectural accent of the embankment.

Church of St. John Chrysostom (warm) and the Church of the Ascension ( cold) were built as a single temple complex with the money of the famous merchant Talanov.

In the Time of Troubles, the Kineshians selflessly fought against the Polish invaders and made a significant contribution to the creation of the liberation movement. In memory of the bloody battle of the inhabitants with the army of Pan Lisovsky, a chapel was erected in the commercial area, which serves a memorial service on the Memorial Day of this event (June 8).

Kunsthistorisches Museum

Address: st. Komsomolskaya, 30, telephone: (49331) 5-3675, 5-3464). The museum collection contains materials on the history of the Kineshma region from ancient times, handwritten and old-printed books, porcelain, and objects of peasant life. In the next building there is an art gallery with canvases of such famous painters as Korovin and Aivazovsky.

The local history exposition, previously located in the building of the Ascension Church, is currently (August 2011) temporarily closed due to the transfer of the ROC church.
