Army of Peter I

Formed by Peter I in 1691 in the village of Semenovskiy near Moscow under the name of amusing Semenovites ; in 1697 they began to be called the Semenovsky regiment , in 1700 - the Life Guards Semenovsky.

He participated in the Kozhukhov maneuvers (1694) , the Azov campaigns (1695–96) , then in the battles of the Northern War .

By the beginning of the Northern War, it included 3 battalions (ordinary infantry regiments had 2 battalions, Preobrazhensky had four).

On November 19/30, 1700, in the unsuccessful battle for the Russians near Narva, the Russian guard (Semenovsky and Preobrazhensky regiments) stubbornly defended themselves against the Swedes and managed to avoid defeat. The Swedish king Charles XII agreed to preserve his weapons for military prowess: the Russian guard regiments crossed the crossing with unfurled banners, with drumming and with arms ^[2] . For the courage shown in this battle, all the soldiers of the regiment in 1700-1740. wore red stockings (in memory of the fact that "in this battle they stood knee-deep in blood"). In this battle, the regiment lost 17 officers (including the commander of Lieutenant Colonel P.V. Kuningam ) and 454 lower ranks. Major Ya. I. Lobanov-Rostovsky appeared before the tribunal for escape from the battlefield and was sentenced to death ^[3] .

In 1702, a detachment from the regiment took part in the 13-hour assault on the fortress of Noteburg , for which all participants were awarded silver medals; Colonel M. M. Golitsyn, who led the detachment, received the rank of colonel of the guard.

In 1707, like the Preobrazhensky regiment , mounted on horses. On September 28 / October 9, 1708, the regiment as part of the corollant of the Russian troops participated in the battle of Lesnaya and suffered heavy losses (3 officers and 259 lower ranks).

June 27, 1709, the regiment took part in the Battle of Poltava ; the team included lieutenant colonels B. I. Kurakin and Efim Vestov, majors P. M. Golitsyn , M. Ya. Volkov and I. I. Dmitriev-Mamonov ; casualties of killed and wounded amounted to 102 people.

Participation of regiment officers in a conspiracy that led to the assassination of Emperor Paul I

Commander Nikolai Ivanovich Depreradovich and officers of the Semenovsky regiment were among those who took part in the conspiracy on March 11, 1801, the consequence of which was the overthrow and murder of the Russian Emperor Paul I.

Napoleonic Wars

The regiment suffered heavy losses in the battle of Friedland (1807), where Colonel Alexander Rzhevsky, 3 more officers and 294 lower ranks died.

During the Patriotic War of 1812, all three battalions of the regiment became part of the 1st Brigade of the Guards Infantry Division of the 5th Infantry Corps. When performing a campaign from St. Petersburg , 51 officers and 2147 lower ranks were in service. During the battle of Borodino, the regiment stood in reserve, after capturing the enemy Raevsky’s battery, he participated in repelling the attacks of the French heavy cavalry at the center of the Russian position (the losses were 4 officers and 24 lower ranks).

In the campaign of 1813 he participated in the battles of Lutzen, Bautzen, Kulm and Leipzig , in the campaign of 1814 he reached Paris. The regiment suffered special losses near Kulm , where up to 900 people from the regiment were killed, including Colonel Andrei Efimovich.

In the campaigns of 1813, 1814 a unique officer took part in the fighting of the regiment — the St. George Knight (No. 2438 (1071); September 21, 1812) Colonel (later General) Sergei Vasilyevich Nepeytsyn (1771–1848), who had lost his leg even under Ochakov and fought on the “artificial” leg of the famous mechanics of Kulibin

Semenov story

On October 16, 1820, the head company of the Semenovsky regiment, tied to the former commander Y. A. Potemkin , filed a request to cancel the rigid procedures introduced under Arakcheev and change the regimental commander Schwartz . Rota was tricked into the arena, arrested and sent to the casemates of the Peter and Paul Fortress . The whole regiment stood up for her. The regiment was surrounded by the military garrison of the capital, and then in full force was sent to the Peter and Paul Fortress. The first battalion was put on a military court, sentencing the instigators to drive through the ranks, and the rest of the soldiers to exile in distant garrisons. Other battalions were deployed to various army regiments.

Punitive expedition in December 1905

In 1905, the regiment was transferred to Moscow to suppress the December uprising in Moscow . By the 16th, when the Semenovites and other arriving units entered into business, one of the city’s districts, Presnya , and also the line of the Moscow-Kazan Railway to Golutvin remained in the hands of the rebels. To suppress riots outside Moscow, the commander of the Semenovsky regiment, Colonel G. A. Min, allocated six companies from his regiment under the command of 17 officers and under the command of Colonel N. K. Riman . The soldiers of the regiment carried out illegal searches and reprisals against residents of workers' settlements, employees of stations on the line of the Moscow-Kazan Railway. More than 150 citizens were killed without trial, including in front of children. A lot of people were injured. Some old men, assistants to the head of the Perovo station, Sergei Orlovsky and Alexei Larionov, who greeted the servicemen with confidence, as well as other soldiers he met along the way, killed with bayonets , officers cut their skulls with sabers , corpses returned to their relatives disfigured beyond recognition (for example, eye cavities pierced their faces with brains, represented a bloody mask, bellies ripped open) ^[4]

For the suppression of the December uprising in Moscow, the commander of the Life Guards of the Semenovsky regiment Georgy Alexandrovich Min earned the special praise of Emperor Nicholas II, was promoted to major general and enlisted in the Suite. But on August 13, 1906, the commander of the Semenovsky regiment Ming was killed by the Socialist Revolutionaries.

Crossing the White Side during the Spring Offensive on Petrograd

In 1917, the Semenovsky regiment declared itself a supporter of the new system, and in 1918 it was renamed the 3rd Petrograd city guard named after Uritsky . When the danger of the advance of the White armies began to threaten Petrograd, the units stationed in Petrograd began to be sent to the front. The 3rd guard regiment was transformed into the 3rd infantry regiment of the 2nd Petrograd Special Purpose Brigade and sent to the front. On May 28, 1919, the regiment was located in the village of Vyra, which is 6 kilometers from the Siverskaya St. Petersburg-Warsaw Railway station . The 3rd battalion of the regiment, numbering 600 people, was stationed in the village, the other two were on the front line. At night, by conspiracy of the battalion commanders and the whites, the Talab White Regiment entered the village, and the conspirators, led by V. A. Zaitsev, the former captain, commander of the 1st battalion and S. A. Samsonievsky, the former guard officer, began to arrest and shoot everyone the communists. The brigade commissar A.S. Rakov, having barricaded himself with a machine gun in one of the houses, fired back until he ran out of bullets, and then shot himself. After the rank of regiment they went through a ceremonial march, to the sounds of the regimental orchestra, in front of their officers. In total, about six hundred people, a regimental orchestra and a two-gun battery went over to the side of the whites. This was one of the most high-profile transitions of the Red Army to the White side, which attracted the attention of the top leaders of the Soviet state. Shortly after the transition, the regiment was visited by the commander of the Northern Corps, Lieutenant General A.P. Rodzianko , who was pleasantly struck by their peppy look and left the unit with the name of the Semenovsky regiment. ^[five]

In October 1920, the Semenovsky regiment of the Russian Army of Wrangel surrendered to the 9th cavalry division of the Red Army (commander of Chugunov) under. Melitopol

Semenov affair

According to historian Yaroslav Tinchenko , "for the Soviet government, the Semenovsky regiment was the most hated of the entire Russian imperial army." In addition to the transition to the white side described above, in 1905, Semenovtsi participated in the suppression of the December armed uprising in Moscow ^[6] .

Also, the Semenovsky regiment took part in a punitive expedition to the stations of the Kazan Railway in 1905. More than a hundred people were killed without trial. Initially, it was ordered "... not to be arrested ...". ^{[7] [8] [9]}

Among those arrested were three participants in the suppression of the Moscow uprising of 1905 and six officers and non-commissioned officers who in 1919 switched to the side of the whites. In the 1920s, they all returned home from exile, but continued to maintain correspondence with captain Zaitsev, the initiator of the regiment’s transition, who lived in Finland.

When parsing the altar of the Church of the Life Guards of the Semenovsky Regiment, the authorized OGPU discovered the regimental banner that the Semenovites had kept for all these years.

According to Alexei Polivanov, a descendant of one of the officers of the regiment, out of 21 arrested Semenovites, 11 were shot: generals Ya. Ya. Sivers , N.A. Kavtaradze, D.A. Shelekhov, colonels A.M. Polivanov, D.V. Komarov , P.N. Brock, L.V. Drenyakin, official V.V. Khristoforov, captain E.I. Kudryavtsev, captain Shramchenko V.V. and non-commissioned officer K.P. Smirnov. Four more received 10 years of forced labor camps : Captain G. I. Gilscher, Ensign P. P. Kulikov, military officer A. E. Rodionov and non-commissioned officer Y. S. Polosin. Five Semenovites escaped with 5 years of ITL: captains N.V. Lobashevsky and G.K. Capital, second lieutenant B.K. Rose, non-commissioned officers F.A. Maximov and A.F. Timofeev.

21st Century

On December 12, 2012, in his Address to the Federal Assembly, Russian President Vladimir V. Putin announced the need to revive the Preobrazhensky and Semenovsky regiments ^[10] .

On April 16, 2013, by presidential decree, the 1st Separate Rifle Regiment received the name Semenovsky ^[11] .

Blue-eyed blondes (tall brown-haired without beards) were gathered in the regiment ^{[12] [13]} .

The settlement, called Semenets , occupied the space between the current Zvenigorodskaya Street , Obvodny Canal , Zagorodny and Obukhov (now Moscow ) Avenue in St. Petersburg. From the future Zagorodny Prospect, cut-throughs were cut, which later became driveways and then streets. Along them appeared wooden barracks and houses for officers. For about a hundred years, passages were called lines with numbers by company numbers (from 1 to 5 and 7, since the passage at the location of the 6th company, the current Bronnitskaya street , was called by the regimental hospital - Hospital Street).

In 1798 - 1800, stone barracks were built along Zagorodny Prospekt and adjacent streets (architects F.I. Volkov , F.I. Demertsov ). The barracks were rebuilt several times during the 19th - early 20th centuries, but some corps, albeit in a modified form, still exist today (for example, an officer’s house located at 54 Zagorodny pr.). According to the general plan developed by F. I. Volkov and F. I. Demertsov, all military buildings formed a compact square around the parade parade.

The square of the Semenov regiment occupied a vast space between the modern Zagorodny Prospect, Zvenigorodskaya and Bronnitskaya streets and the Obvodny Canal . In Russian history, the Semenovsky Platz is known not only as a place for the teachings of Semenovsky and lodged in the neighborhood of the Life Guards of the Jaegers and Moscow Regiments , but also as the place of execution of Petrashevists on December 22, 1849 . On April 3 ( 15 ), 1881, people of the Volunteer party were hanged on the parade ground - participants in the assassination attempt on Emperor Alexander II .

In the 1880s, the parade ground of the Semenovsky regiment passed to the Trotting Horse Breeding Society and until 1940 a hippodrome was located there. Since 1884, cyclist competitions have been held here, and in 1893 the first football match was held in St. Petersburg.

During World War II, anti-aircraft artillery was located on the territory of the former Semyonovsky parade ground. After the war in 1962, the building of the Theater of the Young Spectator was opened on the square. Since September 1962, the space between Marata Street and Zagorodny Prospekt has been called Pionerskaya Square .

Between houses 45 and 47 on Zagorodny Prospekt there is the Vvedensky Garden built in 1865 . The fountain and foundation of the regimental church destroyed in 1932 by the Bolsheviks (architect K.A. Ton ) remained on its territory.

The building of the regimental hospital at Lazaretny per., 2 currently houses the Military Medical Museum , the largest Russian world-class historical medical museum.

On October 11, 2008, a monument to the Russian guard of the Semenovsky regiment by sculptor Andrei Klykov was inaugurated on Semenovskaya Square in Moscow. ^[14]
