Kaygorodskoe

The village of Kaygorodskoye of the Municipal Formation “ Gornouralsk City District ” is located north of Yekaterinburg and 74 km east-southeast of the city of Nizhny Tagil (91 km along the highway), on both banks of the Shilovka River, a right tributary of the Yambarka River, the Neiva River Basin . Located in the southeastern part of the urban district, the extreme southeastern point of the Nizhny Tagil agglomeration. Located south of the village of Yuzhakovo . In the vicinity there is a pond ^[2] . The terrain is hilly and covered with forest, mostly coniferous, due to which the climate is favorable for health. The soil is rocky ^[3] .

The village was founded at the beginning of the XVII century and was named after the Tatar warrior Kai, who founded his settlement, in which fugitive Demidov serfs lived, whose main occupations were agriculture, animal husbandry, hunting and fishing. In 1885, a three-year school was opened in the village, in 1906 a house was built for the school. In 1889, a credit partnership was founded ^[2] . Until 1764, the village of Kaygorodskaya belonged to the Murzinsky parish, and in 1754-1860 to the Lipovsky, since 1860 its own parish was opened in the village. In 1860-1870, the Kaygorodsky parish included the village of Kuchka, separated from the Lipovskoy parish and the village of Kornilova, separated from the Murzinsk parish. In 1870, the village of Mostovaya from the Cheremis parish was joined to the Kaygorodsky parish. The population of the parish in 1900 was 1106 males and 1095 females. All the parishioners are Russian, peasants according to their class. The main occupation at the beginning of the 20th century was tillage and work in the mines, in mines, in smokers, etc. ^[3] .

In 1854, a wooden, single-throne church was laid on a stone foundation at the site of the appearance of the miraculous icon of the Great Martyr Paraskeva (in the 1900s the icon was in the village of Murzinsky), where a wooden chapel previously stood in the name of the same Great Martyr Paraskeva. The chapel was dismantled, and the material went to the construction of a new church. Part of the materials to the residents of the village of Kaygorodsky was donated by the inhabitants of the village of Lipovskoye from their old rural church. The church was built in 1860 and consecrated in the name of the great martyr Paraskeva on November 7, 1861. In 1888 the church was rebuilt and the bell tower was significantly increased (from 7 to 12 footsteps), in 1883 a new iconostasis was made, in 1891 a major reconstruction and repair was carried out inside the church. For the clergy of the parish there were two wooden houses and a building of trading wooden benches with a barn. In addition to the usual religious processions, a special religious procession was made in the parish from the village of Kaygorodsky to the village of Murzinskoe, behind the icon of the Great Martyr Paraskeva. Until 1880, this procession took place at different times after Easter. In 1880, a certain custom was established to bring an icon from the village of Murzinskago on the sixth Sunday afternoon on Easter to the village of Kaygorodskoye. The icon stands in the Kaigorod church until the week of All Saints, and after the liturgy, with a large gathering of pilgrims from neighboring parishes, the icon was solemnly carried back to the village of Murzinskoye. This custom is ancient, so from the documents of the Murzinsky Sretensky Church it can be seen that even “on June 4, 1710 they went with holy icons to the chapel of the Great Martyr Paraskeva in the village of Kaigorodskaya” ^[3] . After the construction of the new stone Paraskevin church, the wooden one became attributed and was closed in the 1930s.

In 1900, a stone, one-throne church was laid, which was consecrated in the name of the Great Martyr Paraskeva on October 14, 1913. The new church was closed in 1940. The Paraskeva Friday Church was returned to the Russian Orthodox Church in 1995 ^[2] . To date, the bell tower, decor and murals in the temple have not been preserved, the facades of the building are decorated with curly brickwork ^[4] .

In the village there is a village club, a school, a kindergarten, a feldsher point and a post office work.

You can get to the village by bus from Nizhny Tagil and Alapaevsk .
