Oh, and miraculously lives, probably, to the residents of the city of Chudovo that in the Novgorod region . It's not for nothing that one of the versions of the name of the city says that it happened from the nickname "Miracle" . In other versions this is not quite the usual name of the settlement is related to the Finno-Ugric tribe Chud, who lived at this place in pre-Mongol times, or with the fact that in the local forests they "chuded", that is, traded, robbers . Apparently, one of the modern architects, a person with a feeling humor, so imbued with the latest version of the emergence of the title that the city court and the local department of internal affairs with the prison are probably the most beautiful buildings in Chudovo .
In general, I must say that Chudovo is a small city, today its population does not amount to 20 thousands of inhabitants . Yes, and the status of the city he received only in 1937, although for the first time it is mentioned in the annals dating from the late 30's - early 40's 16 century . On the territory of the modern city there were villages Chudovo and Chudovskaya Luka . @ Later the first village was renamed Chudovskiy Yam, it happened during the flowering period and yamskogo (izvozchitskogo) case in Russia . Already in the years of Soviet power Chudovo acquires the status of a working village, and after a decade already becomes a city .
The most part of the city is occupied by the private sector, one-story log buildings with personal plots. Only closer to the center are the stone two- and three-story structures.

A bit of history
At the dawn of the 70s of the 19th century Nikolay Nekrasov, the future classic of Russian literature, came to Chudovskaya Luka, bought a house with a house from the local landowner and lived here for about five years, writing poems and often going hunting.
During the Great Patriotic War, the hunting lodge, like the estate of Zvanka, owned by Gabriel Derzhavin, the Arakcheevsky barracks in Selishche and the estate of Count Arakcheev in Gruzino (all these are the nearest neighborhood of Chudov), turned into ruins and ruins. After the end of the war, the house was restored and opened in it a museum, placing there a memorial part of the heritage of the great poet.
In 2004, the house museum underwent a complete reconstruction.
By the way, in Chudovo, which was 2, 5 years in the territory occupied by the fascists, there is a cemetery of foreign invaders right in the middle of the city . More correctly, the cemetery itself is no more - after the gravestones were demolished, the graves themselves were razed to the ground, the resulting area was pinched . And now it houses the city administration building and the monument to Vladimir Lenin . The descendants of the buried here tried to obtain permission to conduct excavations in order to rebury the remains on ro Din, in Germany, and in Chudovo put a commemorative sign . But this turn of events was opposed by veterans, and their credibility was considered . And the echoes of the war are still not there, and they pop up in the surrounding forests in the form of rusted mines and layered land grenades .

Fun, excursions and attractions Chudova
In Chudovo go to see the church of the Kazan Icon of the Mother of God, built in the very beginning of the 20th century, which was closed twice in its history - first in 30-ies, when the young Soviet government began persecution (was opened under the fascist invaders), then in the days of Khrushchev's thaw, in the early 60's 20 century .Once again the church began to function in 1989 . Then the renovation began . The temple for the past years acquired a lamentable appearance: the cellar was flooded, the floor rotted, except for the wall paintings, there were no domes . Thanks to the donations of parishioners and the efforts of the rector of the church and two "hand-woven" artists not indifferent to its fate, the building acquired a decent form .
Another attraction of this city is the ensemble of the railway station, built in 1877, shortly after the opening of the Nikolayevskaya railway. Some buildings of industrial architecture are preserved, for example, separate glass and match factory buildings dating back to the 19th century. In modern Chudovo, they still produce matches, produce plywood and glass wool, metal structures and reinforced concrete products.
