Where is Suksun located? My Perm region: Suksun

Suksun- one of the oldest Ural settlements, included in the list of historical cities of Russia. Located in the southeast of the Perm region, on the left bank of the Sylva River. This settlement arose in 1651. The name has Turkic roots and is translated as “icy water.” The reason for the formation of the settlement was the discovery of copper deposits in this area.

In former times, Suksun was located on the very border of the Russian State and was well protected by wooden fortresses. In 1727, Akinfiy Demidov built a copper smelter on these lands. Thanks to this, the active development of the settlement began, it became known as an industrial center. And it was here that the first steamship in Russia with an iron hull was manufactured, which was named “Nikita Demidov”, in honor of the father of the founder of the plant.

In the mid-18th century, the production of samovars began here. Local craftsmen achieved such success that when, after some time, copper reserves began to dry up, production did not stop. It is Suksun that is considered the birthplace of the Ural samovar art. Local samovars were so High Quality and they were so surprising with their varied shapes that they competed with the world famous Tula samovars. Suksun craftsmen even made samovars in the form of antique amphorae, and already in the 20th century, products in the form of satellites and other space themes appeared. You can see a magnificent collection of samovars at the local local history museum. There you will also be told about the history of the entire settlement.

Previously, Suksun was famous for the production of bells, and 48 bells for the Bolshoi Theater were cast at the Suksun plant. At the end of the 19th century, the Counts Kamensky took over the plant. And in 1933, the settlement received the status of an urban-type settlement.

In the mid-20th century, the Suksun plant switched to producing lenses and glasses, after which it became known as an optical-mechanical plant. Nowadays, exciting industrial excursions are organized there for residents and guests of the city.

Nowadays, only the old building of the Demidov plant reminds us of Suksun’s mining past.

Excursions to the currently operating OMZ are in great demand. Those interested will be shown production workshops of the 18th century. And in modern workshops you can observe the modern production of safety glasses and helmets and even try them on yourself.

In Suksun you can take a walk in the wonderful “Fairytale Park”. This walk will not leave either adults or children indifferent. Here you will see sculptures of heroes from Russian fairy tales: Leshy, Koshchei the Immortal and others. It is in the center of this park that the symbol of Suksun is located - a huge samovar.

The house - the museum of one of the most famous Ural artists - Konstantin Milievich Sobakin, located on the shore of the Suksun pond, is always waiting for guests. Here you will see many of the artist's works, including such whimsical ones as apricot kernel necklaces, a solid wood throne and pebble mosaics.

The Suksun lands have always been famous for their spiritual traditions. The very first temple appeared here back in 1620, in the village of Klyuchi, which is located 15 kilometers from Suksun. There is also something to visit for lovers of ancient Russian churches. It is in Suksun that the Church of Peter and Paul, built in 1729, is located. The majestic structure rises at the top of the Suksun hill. The temple houses the icon “Burning Bush” - a shrine of the Suksun region.

In the 19th century, local doctor A.P. Shcherbakov found healing mud in the Suksun pond and began to treat everyone with it. Health resort, located in the village of Klyuchi and today enjoys great love among Perm residents.

Not far from Suksun, on the right bank of the Sylva River there is a hydrological natural monument - the Plakun waterfall. Two jets, falling from a height of almost 7 meters, break into myriads of small drops, reminiscent of tears.

For those who like to study the rituals and traditions of the small peoples of Russia, excursions to Mari villages are conducted. Here you can taste dishes local cuisine, take part in interesting rituals, and also visit the “Mari House of Crafts”.

The name of this settlement, located on the Sylva River, translated from the Turkic language means “icy water”. Initially, the development of the village took place due to the presence of copper deposits here.

The copper smelter appeared here through the efforts of representatives of the Demidov dynasty, the heyday of factory activity occurred in the first half of the 18th century; in the 70s of the 18th century, during the attack by Emelyan Pugachev’s troops, the factories suffered significant losses.

Subsequently, an ironworks was built, the products of which were in great demand during the war with France at the beginning of the 19th century.

At the beginning of the 20th century, the plant ceased operations.

Currently, there is no industry in Suksun, but the attention of tourists is attracted by: local history museum, two temples and a monument to the samovar. Let's start with the latter: according to some sources, it is Suksun, and not Tula, that is considered the birthplace of the samovar, because historical documents about the samovar are mentioned in 1740, in particular, they talk about a 16-pound copper samovar.

By the beginning of the 20th century, there were about 50 enterprises producing samovars in Suksun. In 2006, the production of samovars was finally suspended, but in the same year a monument to the samovar appeared. It is 3 meters high and consists of four sculptures that are associated with strong family relationships, prosperity and hospitality. The monument was erected on the territory of a local park.

The local history museum appeared on the territory of the village in 1977. At first he was in an old mansion, but due to a fire he was forced to move to an outbuilding. Now visitors to the museum can familiarize themselves with materials and exhibits on the history of the Perm region, and here you can admire copper and cast-iron items, in particular, samovars made in the workshops of the Demidov factory owners.

One of the two temples of Suksun - the Church of the Holy Apostles Peter and Paul - was built in the first half of the 18th century and was not closed even during Soviet times.

Second Temple - Introductions Holy Mother of God– built more than a hundred years ago, it is now in the process of reconstruction.

It is impossible, speaking about Suksun, not to mention the unique natural phenomenon– Plakun waterfall. It is located a few kilometers from the village of Suksun on the banks of the Sylva River. The history of the appearance of the waterfall is connected with a beautiful legend: the parents separated the girl from her lover and imprisoned her in a rock, since then she has been crying inconsolably, and the waterfall was formed from the abundance of her tears.

A cascade of water falls down from 7 meters, the properties of the water do not change, it has neither taste nor smell and can be stored indefinitely. The water has a constant temperature - no more than 5.2 degrees even on the hottest day.

The first researcher of the waterfall was the scientist Shimanovsky, based on the results of his research it became clear that water flows from cracks in the sandstone groundwater and forms two streams flowing down from the mountain.

Plakun water is rich in calcium and other beneficial substances.

The waterfall is also revered as a holy spring; according to legend, several centuries ago the “Burning Bush” icon floated to the bank of the Sylva River, which is now in the Church of Peter and Paul; annually in July there is a religious procession from the temple to the Plakun waterfall.

A picturesque natural attraction of the village. The pond was formed in 1729 while a copper smelter was being built, and its coastline amounts to more than 12 km.

This waterfall is truly a unique natural phenomenon that attracts many admiring tourists. There are very few such waterfalls in the Perm region, and many local legends are associated with the name “Plakun”.

The waterfall itself is quite small by standard standards - only 7 meters high, and it originates from many mountain springs, so the water in the stream is always clean and transparent. Being in the Suksun region, it would be a sin not to visit such a picturesque and beautiful place.

Now this place is quite popular among mountaineers and rock climbers; they hold competitions here every year. The peaks of the rock mass are made of limestone and vary in height. The rocks are named Ermak, Ermachikha and Ermachenok.
