Answer 1

It is difficult for contemporary Voronezhs to imagine that 100 years ago the city ended at Zastava Square. On the site of the viaduct the road to Moscow began. Many years on this site they met and parted. For example, the famous playwright Alexander Nikolayevich Ostrovsky, they say, leaving the tour, generously gave champagne in the local tavern of his Voronezh fans. In 1796, according to the decision of the empress, the gate of the Outpost was crowned with two pylons, the top of which was crowned by two-headed eagles. In 1900 the pylons began to collapse. And the authorities of Voronezh tried to solve the problem in a very original way.
Vladimir Yeletskikh, local historian: "We decided that they are not in the territory of Voronezh, so we will not repair it, the budget is not ready." Then the governor, without thinking twice, issued his decree, and forbade entry through the Outpost into the city. "
Return the visiting card of the old Voronezh former look still had to. But in the 20 years from the pylons got rid of as a symbol of tsarism. Over the years, the Zastava square from the urban outskirts has become part of the modern center of Voronezh. But the attraction did not stop.
