00:00:41
spring of
00:00:42
1901, according to the testimony of the writer
00:00:46
Nikolai Teleshev, along the roads leading to
00:00:49
Moscow, gardens bloomed luxuriantly in spring and summer, the
00:00:54
city of Ponte
00:01:00
within the city limits, year after year,
00:01:04
the land was noticeably decreasing; there was a
00:01:08
lot of housing required; Moscow in terms of
00:01:11
growth rates is already
00:01:17
ahead of Moscow itself,
00:01:20
only those areas were considered that were part of the
00:01:22
garden streets of the current Garden Ring;
00:01:30
well-groomed boulevards gave the city, in the
00:01:32
opinion of contemporaries, a completely European
00:01:35
appearance, which is what the then
00:01:38
mayor Prince
00:01:45
Golitsin sought to achieve; but to
00:01:51
improve the shopping districts,
00:01:53
apartment buildings, a wealthy public and almost
00:01:57
no industry
00:01:59
[music]
00:02:02
at the same time, several large
00:02:04
enterprises appeared in the Moscow region
00:02:07
at the turn of the century, the
00:02:10
appearance of this
00:02:14
area was finally formed. And Chinatown was still surrounded by
00:02:18
a wall built in the 15th century. And there were still
00:02:24
its own around
00:02:31
here; horse-drawn carriages that were
00:02:33
living out their last days still reached here
00:02:35
[music]
00:02:42
Meanwhile, life is already
00:02:47
inscribed with the features of some Moscow
00:02:51
entrepreneurs of the new generation, they built
00:02:53
special houses of the order about mojite
00:03:00
or decorative
00:03:09
symbolism in this style, the
00:03:11
Metropol Hotel was built with
00:03:19
Vrubel's mosaics, it is not surprising, but the houses
00:03:22
corresponded to the spirit of the latest fashion,
00:03:25
harmony with the life of traditional buildings
00:03:28
[music]
00:03:33
Moscow, as it were I remembered the long-standing custom of
00:03:36
decorating walls with multi-colored tiles,
00:03:39
and the architects’ desire
00:03:41
to include in the overall composition fences and
00:03:44
gates with stylized plant
00:03:52
patterns, quiet areas of rich mansions and
00:03:56
noisy shopping areas,
00:04:00
mirrored windows of fashionable stores and the
00:04:03
outskirts with its constant concern for their
00:04:07
daily bread, all this was still nearby
00:04:10
Konstantin Batyushkov wrote about the eternal
00:04:12
Moscow contradiction of poverty and
00:04:16
abundance, entrepreneurs with great
00:04:19
profit invested capital in the
00:04:20
industry of the city, enterprises grew,
00:04:24
the number of workers grew, but they were
00:04:26
often paid pennies, even fined and
00:04:36
robbed. And their living conditions, the
00:04:40
City Duma itself recognized the housing situation
00:04:43
for workers as simply
00:04:45
catastrophic 40,000 families lived in
00:04:48
a bed
00:04:50
[music]
00:04:54
fools sometimes gave up up to half of
00:04:57
their earnings
00:05:03
all this caused protest among the workers
00:05:06
forced them to fight for their
00:05:11
rights in December 1905 it came to
00:05:15
open armed clashes with
00:05:18
regular troops called to
00:05:20
help the police The uprising covered
00:05:23
almost all the factory outskirts of
00:05:28
Moscow barricade the most memorable and the
00:05:32
tragic events took place on
00:05:34
Presnya, here real battles went on for
00:05:38
several days, but the forces were, of course,
00:05:42
unequal. The revolutionary wave gradually
00:05:44
went into decline
00:05:49
[music]
00:05:52
order in the city was restored,
00:05:56
soon life returned to its usual
00:05:58
rut; moreover, after the crisis, a
00:06:02
period of economic
00:06:06
growth began and again the importance of Moscow
00:06:09
as an all-Russian commercial financial
00:06:12
industrial center increased, its very position
00:06:16
in the heart of the country attracted other
00:06:18
Russian regions to it, determined its leading
00:06:22
role
00:06:24
[music]
00:06:31
Elected after 905, the Moscow Duma
00:06:35
was given the opportunity to exercise greater
00:06:37
independence, more actively solve
00:06:40
urban problems,
00:06:43
business people came to lead the Duma
00:06:46
warehouse, they proved to be good
00:06:49
owners and were able to run the business. So the
00:06:51
city economy and utilities
00:06:56
[music] the
00:07:00
city could find money more easily to
00:07:03
create new jobs or
00:07:06
necessary in conditions of
00:07:09
[music]
00:07:12
unemployment, the city
00:07:15
authorities had to constantly fight unemployment;
00:07:17
one of the painful problems is the children left behind.
00:07:21
without
00:07:22
parents fix it
00:07:30
at rasmi at
00:07:33
[music]
00:07:41
stores But here is the problem How the
00:07:43
fight against floods remained
00:07:46
unresolved, the Moscow River regularly
00:07:49
overflowed its banks and the flood of 1908
00:07:54
captured the Moscow
00:07:59
city Without light and went straight to the
00:08:03
steps
00:08:05
[music]
00:08:09
walls but the sun the main natural
00:08:12
disaster remained fire, here all
00:08:15
hope was on the firefighters who, according to
00:08:17
tradition, held their inspections on
00:08:20
Red
00:08:21
Square, the new equipment, unfortunately, did
00:08:24
not arrive in time for the VVM
00:08:29

00:08:36
theater, the cab drivers had
00:08:39
unexpected competitors
00:08:41
cars, they met at first
00:08:44
occasionally and then more and more often More
00:08:51
often than not, at all times, Muscovites were distinguished by an
00:08:54
ineradicable love for holidays;
00:08:58
official ceremonies were held with special pomp
00:09:01
in the presence of the imperial
00:09:03
family; she did not
00:09:06
visit Mother
00:09:09
Moscow so often; this time it was a special occasion; Nicholas
00:09:13
II decided to unveil the monument to
00:09:16
his father Alexander III with
00:09:19
all possible
00:09:21
solemnity; monument
00:09:23
near the Cathedral of Christ the Savior, the construction
00:09:26
of which was completed just during the
00:09:28
reign of Alexander
00:09:30
[music]
00:09:35
II in the new century, Moscow also built
00:09:39
temples, but more temples of science and art
00:09:43
at Moscow University, on the
00:09:46
initiative of Professor Tsvetaev, the
00:09:48
Museum of Fine
00:09:52
Arts was created, members of the imperial family
00:09:55
visited here during time of the dedication celebrations
00:10:00
in 193
00:10:02
[music]
00:10:09
And the next
00:10:13
year, 1914, Russia found itself
00:10:20
embroiled in the situation in Moscow,
00:10:23
enterprises switched to producing military
00:10:26
products war
00:10:30
difficulties
00:10:31
[music]
00:10:35
grew at the beginning of the senate of the year in Moscow,
00:10:39
prices rose sharply, fuel and
00:10:43
food disappeared, dissatisfaction with the copy for years
00:10:46
instantly splashed out
00:10:49
out again even more active than in
00:10:53
195 watering rallies inst
00:10:57
[music]
00:11:00
with slogans down with
00:11:03
autocracy failures at the front the collapse of the
00:11:06
economy and mass unrest led
00:11:10
the tsar to the decision to abdicate the
00:11:14
throne of the monarchy the end had come Russia
00:11:18

[ music]
00:11:38
to the government at that moment it seemed to many
00:11:40
that life would immediately become better,
00:11:43
that the new government would instantly resolve all
00:11:46
the contradictions, but things were getting worse
00:11:50
The soldiers refused to fight, the workers
00:11:53
refused to work,
00:11:56
transport stopped, shops and bread shops were closed
00:12:00
[music]
00:12:02
shops in Russia were rapidly
00:12:06
brewing
00:12:08
Moscow was destined to survive again
00:12:11
great upheavals a difficult path to pass
00:12:15
from ruin to renewal

Congress of Workers', Peasants' and Soldiers'
00:12:48
Deputies proclaimed the transfer of all
00:12:51
power to the hands of the Soviets the coup
00:12:53
took place but Moscow did not agree Uyso The
00:13:01
Moscow Council already considered itself the owner of the city. The elected organization of
00:13:03
workers and soldiers, as a result of a
00:13:06
fierce armed struggle, all
00:13:08
previous bodies of self-government were
00:13:16
abolished; Red Guard detachments occupied
00:13:19
all important points, captured the Kremlin and
00:13:22
won victory
00:13:27
[music]
00:13:29
claimed many human lives and
00:13:32
turned out to be only the beginning of a long
00:13:34
bloody struggle for
00:13:38
power, when the shooting stopped,
00:13:40
Muscovites took to the streets and saw a
00:13:43
lot of destruction of houses with broken
00:13:46
windows with traces of shell bullets,
00:13:49
ancient monuments of the Kremlin broken by artillery fire,
00:13:51
Holes in the walls of the
00:13:54
City Duma building from where the cadets were driven out
00:13:58
[music] A
00:14:03
sudden sharp turn in history
00:14:05
put Russia in the face of extraordinary
00:14:08
difficulties arose fear that the enemy
00:14:11
might capture Petrograd and the Soviet
00:14:13
government decided to move to
00:14:15
Moscow, thus the Mother See
00:14:18
again became the capital of Russia and then the SSS
00:14:27
[music]
00:14:29
in the most difficult trials everywhere and in
00:14:32
Moscow there was
00:14:36
devastation troubles of the Civil War epidemics
00:14:39
famine multi-million army
00:14:43
[music]
00:14:48
homeless paralysis of
00:14:50
transport severe fuel crisis,
00:14:54
the collapse of the urban economy, it was the Muscovites who went through the Armed Forces
00:14:59
and found the strength to restore life to the
00:15:01
abandoned steam locomotive cold workshops of the Armed Forces, what
00:15:05
could the utility workers do,
00:15:07
if not in the apartments, then in the water pumps
00:15:13
[music] there
00:15:15
was water in these terrible years, the
00:15:19
Moscow population
00:15:20
decreased significantly someone went to the front,
00:15:24
moved to the village, the rest
00:15:27
lived
00:15:29
[music]
00:15:31
But the civil war finally ended
00:15:33
and life began to return to Moscow courtyards
00:15:40
already in the early twenties. The
00:15:43
Moscow Council was able to begin
00:15:45
repairing the housing
00:15:50
stock; the new government undertook to provide
00:15:53
housing for thousands of working families with income
00:15:56
houses were taken away from their owners by moving in
00:16:00
owners, the era of communal
00:16:04
[music]
00:16:10
apartments began, many supply difficulties
00:16:13
were overcome when, at
00:16:15
Lenin’s suggestion, a new economic policy was introduced, the
00:16:21
distribution system did
00:16:23
not justify itself, it was necessary to return the button
00:16:33
to the lumen
00:16:35
quantity, the former Moscow clerk, who
00:16:38
seemed to have disappeared forever, returned with
00:16:42
delicacies that had already been forgotten
00:16:45
Mikhail Bulgakov, who worked as a newspaper reporter in those years,
00:16:48
wrote it is difficult to understand
00:16:51
from which mysterious
00:16:57
weeks this temporary concession to the private sector was shaken out with a generous hand by a generous hand
00:17:00
and placed on the shelves,
00:17:08
this period suddenly
00:17:10
came flooding back for a long time then
00:17:18
Muscovites remembered with the dawn of trade
00:17:21
revenues to the budget increased and the Moscow City Council
00:17:24
began work to
00:17:26
improve the streets
00:17:29
[music]
00:17:34
in January
00:17:36
1924, Muscovites saw off the
00:17:39
creator of the Soviet state,
00:17:42
Vladimir Ilyich Lenin, on his final journey. With
00:17:45
sincere deep sorrow and concern for the
00:17:48
future of the
00:17:51
country, the leader’s successors decided to
00:17:53
immortalize
00:17:56
but even his body and therefore on Red
00:17:59
Square they erected a Mausoleum, first
00:18:02
wooden then
00:18:05
[music]
00:18:09
marble, meanwhile Moscow was taking
00:18:12
another step towards renewal, in addition to
00:18:14
restoration and repair, it began the
00:18:17
construction of residential buildings, construction
00:18:20
took place mainly in working-class
00:18:23
settlements, due to a lack of funds,
00:18:26
simple houses were built But for the majority of
00:18:29
New Residents this was the first
00:18:32
comfortable
00:18:38
housing in my life, by the mid-twenties Moscow had
00:18:41
overcome and the industrial crisis began with a
00:18:43
rapid rise of almost all major
00:18:46
branches of production to leading positions,
00:18:49
mechanical engineering came to the fore, the automobile plant began to
00:18:52
produce the first domestic
00:18:54
[music]
00:18:57
cars, taxis appeared on the streets
00:19:00
These cars were foreign brands and
00:19:02
belonged to private to the owners, after all,
00:19:04
the matter was already happening. In the absence of
00:19:12
signs of the recent upheavals,
00:19:15
only
00:19:17
street children remained in Moscow, but they soon settled in
00:19:19
commune
00:19:23
orphanages; a completely new feature in the life of
00:19:25
the city became numerous children's
00:19:28
institutions,
00:19:29
it was believed that they served the cause of the
00:19:31
emancipation of Soviet
00:19:36
women, and the Moscow Peasant's House was
00:19:40
called
00:19:43
liberates them with the advantage of a
00:19:45
collective
00:19:46
[music]
00:19:49
economy, the changes that time brought with it
00:19:52
were met in Moscow with great
00:19:54
interest, served as the subject of lively
00:19:57
discussion, the
00:19:59
city post office accelerated the delivery of
00:20:01
correspondence using passenger
00:20:05
cars, the
00:20:07
telephone network grew noticeably, a new station opened
00:20:10
and the number of subscribers increased first to
00:20:13
dozens and then and up to hundreds of thousands,
00:20:16
however, the right to a personal telephone
00:20:18
still had to be
00:20:20
earned in Shabolovka,
00:20:30
now the voice of so many was heard in the most
00:20:32
remote corners of the country and
00:20:41
beyond, the unprecedented social
00:20:43
experiment begun in the Soviet Union
00:20:46
aroused curiosity throughout the world to see
00:20:48
everything with their own eyes, and the working
00:20:51
delegations sought and the banner
00:20:53

00:20:59
of Bernard
00:21:01
Shaw Ron
00:21:04
Roland Rabindranath
00:21:09
Tagore and their impressions of the meeting with Moscow, it must be
00:21:12
said, were the most
00:21:17
favorable How quickly and How
00:21:20
strikingly the mood of
00:21:22
Muscovites changed, as if they were all trying to make
00:21:24
up for lost time during the years of war and
00:21:27
devastation; the
00:21:30
recently opened The Central
00:21:32
Park with its pavilions,
00:21:34
attractions, swings and Carousels is an
00:21:37
old
00:21:39
entertainment, and the new one was called the wheel of
00:21:42
laughter; those who held it on their feet received
00:21:50
a prize; they attracted everyone's attention;
00:21:53
construction was carried out. They still used
00:21:56
the methods of their grandfathers to
00:21:59
land in a
00:22:03
wheelbarrow. But the traditional urban
00:22:05
development of Moscow easily and organically
00:22:08
perceived new
00:22:10
forms and fit freely in it, the creations of
00:22:13
Architects constructively surprising the
00:22:16
emphasized industrial new
00:22:21
forms in the buildings of the twenties and thirties
00:22:23
clearly shows how Moscow
00:22:27
architects were looking for the image of their
00:22:30
[music]
00:22:37
time; sometimes they created houses,
00:22:40
neighborhoods in which there were not only
00:22:42
apartments but also shops, canteens, even
00:22:46
[music]
00:22:48
cinemas, the government was the
00:22:50
task was set to change the appearance of the city
00:22:54
as required by the Epoch but Mosk
00:22:59
As they said, a large village with
00:23:04
narrow streets did not meet this requirement, the
00:23:08
capital of the Soviet state
00:23:11
had to take on the appearance of an exemplary
00:23:14
socialist city, it became increasingly
00:23:17
obvious that without radical redrawing it was
00:23:19
simply impossible to lay wide
00:23:23
avenues. multi-storey
00:23:27
buildings from now on, Moscow had to change
00:23:30
its appearance purposefully and
00:23:33
organized according to the plan
00:23:36
[music]
00:23:44
[music]
00:23:52
[music]
00:23:57
reconstruction of almost 8 centuries Our city
00:24:00
developed naturally like a living
00:24:04
creature, but the time came when a
00:24:06
clear plan was required, including
00:24:10
to cope with the problems of growth because the
00:24:13
inhabitants in Moscow it was becoming more and more the
00:24:15
3 million mark was passed already in the
00:24:18
early thirties
00:24:21
[music] the
00:24:25
main burden of demographics Come
00:24:29
to the center, officially the city boundaries were the
00:24:32
same almost as in the 10th century, but the buildings for the
00:24:36
most part were an
00:24:39
unimaginable interweaving of narrow streets
00:24:41
and alleys, a kind of ligature Why
00:24:45
else did Sergei Yesenin call the city
00:24:49
elm difficult to regulate traffic at
00:24:52
countless intersections there is no place for
00:24:54
new types of transport to turn around,
00:24:56
for example a trolleybus
00:24:58
First launched on the line in November
00:25:01
1933
00:25:03
[music] the
00:25:11
beginning of the construction of the metro should be considered truly epoch-making events, the
00:25:13
city was choking and therefore
00:25:17
had to hurry The mines were laid even
00:25:20
before as the final project was ready
00:25:24
[music]
00:25:33
meanwhile,
00:25:35
changes were observed on the surface for the first time in the history of the
00:25:38
city, [music] cars came out to clean the streets,
00:25:48
but the main change was
00:25:51
that in the center of Moscow they began to be the
00:25:55
first to be demolished. The houses went
00:25:58
and there was nothing for them in general to
00:26:05
regret, Muscovites reacted completely differently
00:26:07
to the demolition of monuments that
00:26:10
were located on expanding highways,
00:26:13
because if desired, they could have been
00:26:20
preserved as an
00:26:26
irreplaceable number in Moscow. It was antiquity that
00:26:29
irritated the champions of everything new, who were rushing for a
00:26:32
bright
00:26:34
tomorrow; bricks went to the construction of
00:26:37
palaces of culture; some churches
00:26:40
were transferred institutions and museums
00:26:43
thanks to which
00:26:44
[music]
00:26:48
survived Not even a year after the explosion of the
00:26:50
Old Simonov Monastery
00:26:54
[music]
00:26:58
the construction of a gigantic Palace of the Soviets,
00:27:01
also essentially a temple of only a new type,
00:27:05
and they rushed to deal with the old one,
00:27:13
blew up the national
00:27:16
pride of the Orthodox Faith. There was such an
00:27:20
idea to completely destroy everything in order to
00:27:24
build a new world
00:27:28
[music]
00:27:30
in a matter of days, through the efforts of teams of a
00:27:33
special Mos analysis of the trust, the
00:27:36
ancient Okhotny Ryad with the
00:27:39
benches of the tavern storage shed, the personification of the
00:27:43
center of the capitals, became two huge
00:27:46
buildings rising on this place, the
00:27:49
Government House and the Moscow Hotel
00:27:53
[music]
00:27:58
brass and the Alexandrovsky garden disappear
00:28:02
making room for a wide
00:28:07
area, it immediately became noticeable how
00:28:10
old Tverskaya Street was constricted and out of date,
00:28:13
so explosions thundered again,
00:28:16
thick clouds of
00:28:23
dust rose again, it should be noted that on Tverskaya they
00:28:26
no longer demolished buildings in a row, solid ones
00:28:29
above the TH floors, interesting in architecture,
00:28:33
sometimes moved as if hidden behind
00:28:36
light
00:28:39
facades For 4 whole years, the
00:28:42
master plan for the reconstruction of Moscow was being prepared; in the
00:28:45
summer of
00:28:46
1935, it was
00:28:49
approved; the structure of the city was changing;
00:28:52
its territory was expanding twice, new
00:28:55
borders appeared
00:28:56
[music] an
00:29:03
important place was given in the master
00:29:05
plan to the accelerated construction of housing
00:29:08
over the next 10 years, 15 million square
00:29:12
meters per square it was necessary to
00:29:17
further eliminate the housing crisis
00:29:20
and it was not possible
00:29:24
[music]
00:29:28
at the same time dozens of large enterprises
00:29:31
were created, essentially new
00:29:39
industries were expanded and
00:29:42
old Moscow factories were expanded and updated; all
00:29:45
this required a constant influx of
00:29:47
labor; the population grew at a
00:29:50
faster pace than the housing
00:29:57
stock; the metro builders were pleased with the news.
00:30:01
completed the construction of tunnels in a record
00:30:03
short
00:30:04
[music]
00:30:07
time. They also became the first
00:30:10
metro passengers. This rule was followed further
00:30:14
when the second third ring line was opened. The
00:30:28
mood of Muscovites in the mid
00:30:30
-thirties can be judged by the
00:30:33
film footage that captured
00:30:36
[music].
00:30:44
If we talk about everyday worries
00:30:47
then among the next problems was the
00:30:50
development of the Moscow River, they decided to
00:30:53
turn it into a real waterway,
00:30:55
build new Embankment bridges
00:30:58
in terms of reconstruction of 11 new bridges,
00:31:02
primarily near the Kremlin on the screen
00:31:05
One of the last filming of the old
00:31:08
Moskvoretsky
00:31:12
bridge And this is what the old Krymsky looked like in the
00:31:16
rich year it was already could not cope with the flow of
00:31:19
traffic and in its place a bridge of
00:31:22
beauties arose, the slender silhouette of which became a
00:31:25
kind of calling card
00:31:28
[music]
00:31:35
at the same time it was necessary to put an
00:31:37
end to the problem of the spring
00:31:41
Ledochovsky
00:31:45
banks once and for all and dress them in granite for
00:31:48
35 km
00:31:50
[music]
00:31:59
water level in the river As a result of the
00:32:01
construction of the
00:32:04
Moscow-Volga canal, its 128 km long route
00:32:08
was divided into five sections and in
00:32:10
each of them earthworks began almost simultaneously; a
00:32:16
mass of people gathered here, more than a million people
00:32:25
[music]
00:32:27
cargo and passenger ships carried
00:32:30
millions of cubic meters of Volga water;
00:32:33
the capital became a port five
00:32:39
seas Moscow disseminated best
00:32:42
practices demonstrated the achievement of the
00:32:44
collective farm system at the All-Union
00:32:46
Agricultural
00:32:50
Exhibition symbols of the new era replaced the
00:32:53
previous relics of the Russian Empire
00:32:58
double-headed eagles on the Kremlin towers gave way to
00:33:02
five-pointed ones were made of
00:33:04
Ural copper and gems and then they
00:33:07
began to be made from ruby
00:33:10
[music]
00:33:14
glass to replace monumentality came to the industrial style and
00:33:18
constructivism;
00:33:20
this was the next
00:33:23
requirement of the era and it was reflected in architecture as if in a mirror; it
00:33:32
was a time of general inspiration
00:33:35
for thousands of parades and
00:33:37
demonstrations; life was by no means
00:33:39
cloudless, but it was still improving and, most
00:33:42
importantly, it gave hope for
00:33:48
the future and there was confidence that this is
00:33:51
the future
00:33:53
[music]
00:33:59
hand-to-hand battles blindly with an
00:34:01
imaginary enemy Of course, they were
00:34:04
just
00:34:06
games history was preparing a real
00:34:11
test, as it turned out, only 20 years of
00:34:15
peacetime were allotted to
00:34:18
Moscow then 20 years of construction and
00:34:22
development were done during this time
00:34:24
Amazingly
00:34:26
a lot of people
00:34:29
became younger, but they were inevitably approaching Moscow again
00:34:35
thunderstorms were approaching the
00:34:37
war years
00:34:50
[applause]
00:34:55
[music]
00:35:03
the beginning of the
00:35:04
forties is a remarkable and
00:35:08
very short period of time in its own way, which in the
00:35:10
memories of contemporaries is depicted in a
00:35:13
calm,
00:35:15
prosperous Happy days, happy
00:35:19
evenings in the hall of the Bolshoi Theater,
00:35:30
but it was already felt that Peaceful silence is
00:35:33
unstable and unreliable in Europe with all its might
00:35:37
There was a war going on, people lined up in long
00:35:40
lines for newspapers to find out the
00:35:43
latest
00:35:49
news on the night of June 22,
00:35:53
1941, fascist troops
00:35:58
entered the territory of the Soviet Union.
00:36:02
The Great Patriotic
00:36:05
War began. On July 3, Stalin’s speech was broadcast on the radio,
00:36:09
this was an appeal to
00:36:12
the people with a call to protect the country from the
00:36:15
cruel insidious deadly
00:36:22
enemy of the enemy, Vasya Mos,
00:36:28
recruiting centers rushed
00:36:51
to recruiting centers. Volunteers in all districts of the capital began the formation of the People's Militia; people of various professions, including purely peaceful ones, joined it; many of these people fought as part of regular units until the
00:36:54
Victory,
00:37:01
but while the
00:37:03
enemy offensive was rapidly developing, the Barbaros plan for
00:37:06
the USSR allotted only some 2
00:37:11
months. However, Moscow looked Calm,
00:37:16
but strict security measures were taken
00:37:18
in anticipation of raids, storefronts were laid up
00:37:23
and
00:37:27
love Orlovo, the actress of those
00:37:32
years, a familiar detail in the appearance of the city, anti-
00:37:35
aircraft guns became until the front line approached,
00:37:38
the greatest danger threatened
00:37:41
the city from the air. aviation covered the
00:37:50
barrage balloon already on the third day of the war in
00:37:53
Moscow, they conducted a training air alert in Moscow,
00:37:56
all the participants acted as in a
00:37:58
real situation, the experience gained
00:38:01
during such exercises actually helped save
00:38:03
many
00:38:12
lives, the population, young and old, went out
00:38:16
to build defensive
00:38:17
structures, half a million Muscovites dug
00:38:20
ditches and they worked trenches both on the
00:38:23
approaches to the Capital and directly in the
00:38:26
city, about [music] 24,000 metal
00:38:29
anti-tank hedgehogs alone were installed
00:38:37
in those days in the very center of Moscow
00:38:40
one could see such a picture of the herd
00:38:43
being driven to the rear away from the
00:38:49
[music]
00:38:52
front line preparation Before the evacuation of
00:38:56
museums, about
00:38:59
50,000 works
00:39:03
of art were removed from the third forging. But the building was
00:39:06
impossible to remove. They were camouflaged in the Kremlin,
00:39:10
painted over. The golden domes were hidden
00:39:13
under a plywood
00:39:16
model. The Bolshoi Theater was camouflaged with the
00:39:19
help of decorations for the play
00:39:25
[music]
00:39:27
alarming. The silence over the city was
00:39:30
broken exactly after a month after the start of
00:39:32
the war, on the night of July 22, the
00:39:36
air defense troops received a signal
00:39:38
that enemy aircraft were approaching,
00:39:43
took up their posts and
00:39:46
[music]
00:39:48
self-defense detachments, that’s when
00:39:51
the words of angry citizens sounded for the first time, the air
00:39:55
raid alert
00:39:57
will sound more than once in the fall, almost
00:40:01
every day, but for the Armed Forces At this time,
00:40:04
not a single case of
00:40:09
panic was noted; that night, 20,050 bombers flew to Moscow;
00:40:15
this armada was
00:40:18
dispersed; only a few broke through on the way
00:40:21
and dropped bombs hastily anywhere.
00:40:27
So many of those who took refuge in
00:40:29
shelters did not even hear the
00:40:36
explosions. And those who were on duty on the roofs they
00:40:39
quickly learned to cope with
00:40:41
incendiary bombs filled with
00:40:45
phosphorus to fight the fire in the city.
00:40:48
More than 12 fire brigades were prepared in advance
00:40:54
[music]
00:40:57
only in East itself, but they also did
00:41:00
a lot of trouble before they were attacked
00:41:03
[music]
00:41:08
Retribution by winter the situation
00:41:10
worsened sharply German troops reached the
00:41:13
approaches to Moscow The enemy's first attack was
00:41:16
choked, but he was already preparing forces for
00:41:19
the second
00:41:20
[music]
00:41:27
the attention of millions of people In the whole world,
00:41:30
once again in the battle for Moscow the
00:41:33
fate of Russia was to be decided on the outcome of
00:41:36
this battle, the outcome of the
00:41:39
entire
00:41:43
war largely depended on from the Urals from Siberia from the Far
00:41:47
East, trains with artillery tanks were rushing to Moscow,
00:41:52
the division was fully equipped, ready to
00:41:55
immediately enter into battle, the
00:41:58
arriving units moved to the
00:42:00
front line following through the city along its
00:42:16
streets. On November 7, a
00:42:19
legendary military parade took place on Red Square,
00:42:22
from here the troops went straight to the front,
00:42:31
finally compressed to the limit of the spring of the
00:42:33
Moscow defense unfolded Our
00:42:36
troops, going on the offensive,
00:42:39
pushed the
00:42:49
enemy far back; a direct threat to Moscow had passed;
00:42:53
life was returning to normal
00:42:59
and New Year's concerts were held throughout Moscow and in
00:43:06
the evenings they even sold Christmas trees so that people
00:43:09
could traditionally celebrate the New Year,
00:43:11
even if not like in Peacetime, but that’s all
00:43:14
with a good
00:43:19
mood, the plants and factories remaining
00:43:22
in the city continued to work even in the most difficult months
00:43:27
[music]
00:43:30
instead of the men who went to the front,
00:43:32
women and often
00:43:37
teenagers at defense enterprises took over the machines.
00:43:40
Work, as a rule, did not stop even
00:43:42
during air
00:43:45
raids Where goods were previously produced
00:43:47
People's consumption was now made by mines
00:43:50
machine guns
00:43:52
shells It is interesting that during the war
00:43:55
the construction of new lines
00:43:59
[music] of the
00:44:05
metro did not stop. Moscow builders carried out the
00:44:08
restoration of buildings damaged by the
00:44:11
bombings of
00:44:15
1941. Footage was preserved showing the
00:44:18
Vakhtangov Theater
00:44:20
destroyed by a direct hit of a landmine.
00:44:23
By the way, it turned out that it was not in vain that they were taken out from
00:44:25
museums, paintings bombs hit both the
00:44:28
Tretyakov Gallery and the Pushkin Museum,
00:44:31
many residential
00:44:38
buildings were damaged to raise the morale of the
00:44:41
city residents, downed German planes
00:44:43
were put on public display on
00:44:46
Revolution Square and then in the
00:44:48
central park of culture
00:44:57
[music] in the
00:44:58
summer of
00:45:00
1943 the war came decisive
00:45:04
turning point Our troops liberated Belgorod
00:45:07
and Alyo, which was marked by an
00:45:10
artillery salute in Moscow, the first in
00:45:13
the history of the war but not the last
00:45:26
[music]
00:45:29
year
00:45:31
1944 On July 17, about 50 German
00:45:36
prisoners of war captured at
00:45:38
Stalingrad Kursk and during other
00:45:41
operations were carried out in a huge column
00:45:45
[ music]
00:45:46
Moscow formally in order to
00:45:49
move them to permanent stalls And in
00:45:52
order to show Muscovites and the whole world that of the
00:45:57
masters who wanted to doom the
00:46:00
peoples of the eastern
00:46:07
[music]
00:46:08
territories to eternal slavery and then in May of forty-five the
00:46:13
Great Victory came. Moscow greets the
00:46:17
soldiers of the army of the victor
00:46:20
who were freed
00:46:21
[music]
00:46:27
no one could stay at home, obeying a
00:46:30
single impulse, people took to the streets and
00:46:34
squares of the
00:46:41
city. On June 24, 4 long years after the
00:46:46
start of the war, the
00:46:49
Victory Parade took place on Red Square; this holiday
00:46:53
crowned the heroic feat of the army and the
00:46:57
entire people, a feat that will forever
00:47:00
remain in the memory of a
00:47:14
generation in the days when the
00:47:17
twenty-fifth anniversary of the Great Victory near
00:47:19
Moscow was celebrated, a solemn procession passed along the main street of the capital
00:47:23
on an
00:47:25
artillery carriage; a
00:47:27
sarcophagus with the remains of one of the
00:47:29
nameless defenders of the
00:47:32
city was led; the burial took place at the
00:47:35
Kremlin wall; the grave of the Unknown
00:47:38
Soldier became one of the sacred places of
00:47:42
our
00:47:45
capitals, as has happened more than once in history
00:47:49
Moscow with honor passed the test
00:47:51
of the war
00:47:52
[music]
00:47:55
lily and rushed to new
00:48:08
[music]
00:48:20
horizons 2 years have passed since the end of
00:48:23
the war, two peaceful but not very years to forget
00:48:29
about the difficulties for some time again
00:48:31
to feel the atmosphere of the holiday helped
00:48:34
Muscovites widely celebrate the anniversary of
00:48:38
Moscow's anniversary how the
00:48:41
capital's birthday was celebrated then is told by footage
00:48:45
[music]
00:48:52
newsreels, what they are, the illuminations of the
00:48:56
walls and towers of the Kremlin re-illuminated its
00:49:00
ancient
00:49:04
beauty, during the days of the holiday, the
00:49:07
ceremonial laying of a monument to Yuri
00:49:10
Dolgoruky took place, as well as several high-rise
00:49:15
buildings. Muscovites willingly took part
00:49:18
in clearing the wasteland to prepare sites
00:49:21
for future construction of
00:49:27
other central
00:49:29
[music]
00:49:31
streets noticeable changes took place in
00:49:33
public utilities along the new
00:49:36
gas pipeline Saratov Moscow
00:49:39
natural gas came to the capital and in a matter of years
00:49:42
gas stoves appeared in most
00:49:45
Moscow
00:49:46
[music]
00:49:49
apartments at the end of the years in Moscow test

00:49:57
AMB construction on Vorobyovy Hills, the new
00:50:01
building of Moscow State
00:50:04
University, even before it was put into operation,
00:50:06
it was proudly called the palace of science. And
00:50:11
the rest of the high-rise buildings were supposed to look
00:50:13
like palaces; they transformed the appearance of the city,
00:50:17
and today it is impossible to imagine Moscow without these silhouettes
00:50:24
[music]
00:50:29
until
00:50:30
1950, the monument to Pushkin stood on
00:50:34
Tverskoy Boulevard But then the
00:50:36
builders came, laid the rails and the monument
00:50:40
moved to the other side of the street. For
00:50:43
what reason, and now it is not very
00:50:49
clear, over the next decade a
00:50:52
number of monuments appeared that stole the city from the
00:50:59
Tchaikovsky Conservatory on Chistye Prudy to the author of the
00:51:02
most Moscow of all classical
00:51:04
comedies,
00:51:09
Griboyedov, on the square which once
00:51:11
called the old triumphal
00:51:13
gates, a monument to Mayakovsky was opened
00:51:16
glorifying the Republic as the spring of
00:51:20
humanity, born in labor and in battle,
00:51:28
meanwhile the city of the Armed Forces was in dire need of
00:51:31
new residential buildings, areas which was
00:51:34
reflected in the new master
00:51:39
development plan, the government announced its
00:51:42
intention to end the housing problem in the
00:51:44
most decisive manner, the Near
00:51:47
Moscow region was included in the city limits,
00:51:50
it was given over for
00:51:51
development, it was clear that the
00:51:54
housing shortage would not be dealt with using previous methods, and
00:51:58
the construction of houses was literally put on a
00:52:01
conveyor belt. Standard development led to the
00:52:04
emergence of microdistricts. Almost indistinguishable
00:52:07
from one another, but many thousands of
00:52:10
Moscow families were able to move out of
00:52:13
communal housing. apartments in separate Moscow
00:52:16
to get rid of Barracks to resettle from
00:52:19
basements and
00:52:23
cellars and grew
00:52:26
grew far moving their borders away from the
00:52:29
line of ancient
00:52:33
outposts some corners of the city changed
00:52:36
their appearance to the point of complete unrecognizability,
00:52:38
for example
00:52:40
Luzhniki back in the early fifties these
00:52:43
were swampy places chaotically
00:52:46
built up with warehouses and barracks But then they
00:52:50
came Moscow Builders came here and
00:52:52
within 2 years they built a huge stadium,
00:52:56
one of the largest in the world with a main
00:52:59
arena for more than 100,000 spectators with a
00:53:02
swimming pool, a sports palace, many
00:53:06
open areas, a real sports
00:53:10

00:53:16
1957 during the sixth

World Youth Festival and
00:53:22
students on this wonderful holiday,
00:53:26
all
00:53:29
and children of different nations were captivated by the
00:53:33
cordiality and cordiality of
00:53:37
Muscovites, and the guests and hosts of the festival
00:53:42
clearly liked the opportunity for
00:53:44
open, relaxed
00:53:53
communication. The people themselves stopped in a lighter time,
00:53:58
more freely the
00:54:00
architectural ensembles along the
00:54:03
Moscow River Embankments came into operation.
00:54:05
Novoarbatsky bridge, which opened a more
00:54:08
convenient path from the center to Kutuzovsky
00:54:10
Prospekt and a new area in the west
00:54:13
[music] of
00:54:17
the city, the construction of a
00:54:20
high-rise building of the Ukraine Hotel was completed.
00:54:31
In order to develop the city in the south-west
00:54:33
direction, a
00:54:36
bridge of a two-tier
00:54:39
unique design and the largest in In
00:54:45
Moscow, a metro station was built here, and
00:54:50
today one of the most beautiful panoramas to the
00:54:52
center opens from here,
00:54:59
and the route of the avenue passed through new
00:55:01
areas further to the southwest, right up to the
00:55:04
ring
00:55:07
road, year after year,
00:55:10
work continued to expand the Garden Ring.
00:55:13
Now you see how they reconstructed

00:55:26
The Wide Asphalt Arrow passed and
00:55:29
the masses began to rise
00:55:33
[music]
00:55:40
Novoarbatsky
00:55:41
square was put on rails and the
00:55:44
famous Sytin house was moved aside to

00:56:04
delight, people felt a genuine
00:56:07
sense of pride from the fact that
00:56:09
the birth of the space age took place,
00:56:13
no one organized such meetings, everyone just really
00:56:15
wanted to see the Cosmonauts living

00:57:09
housing problem could not be solved
00:57:12
in the newsreels of those years Working life in
00:57:16
Moscow appears to be quite prosperous
00:57:18
without any serious
00:57:21
problems and ours are in their
00:57:26
usual order rolled along an
00:57:29
established
00:57:31
track for several decades,
00:57:35
every year young Muscovites went
00:57:37
to different parts of the country, sending
00:57:40
construction teams to the most important facilities.
00:57:42
Moscow provided significant assistance to the
00:57:45
regions
00:57:49
of the country, having received the right to host the
00:57:54
1980 Summer Olympics, it became one of the capitals of
00:57:57
world sports; the whole world was surrounded by personnel from Like the
00:58:01
Olympic Bear flying into the
00:58:04
Moscow
00:58:10
sky, thanks to the Olympics, the city now has
00:58:13
more large modern sports
00:58:15
facilities. The Olympic complex on
00:58:18
Prospekt
00:58:20
Mira. The rowing canal in Krylatskoye
00:58:26
and the wonderful
00:58:36
cycle track there. Our story would, of course,
00:58:39
not be complete without film footage filmed every
00:58:42
year on Red Square for 70
00:58:45
years of the holiday. demonstrations were an
00:58:48
invariable and obligatory sign of the
00:58:52
times. But the time came to look behind the
00:58:54
ceremonial decoration,
00:58:56
behind the colorful window of a sweet fairy tale, and
00:59:00
then food stamps appeared in the lenses of movie cameras,
00:59:02
endless
00:59:05
queues for sausage and other products that had become
00:59:08
completely scarce, and empty
00:59:11
baskets from buyers, empty shelves in
00:59:14
stores were always harbingers of
00:59:19
shocks in television programs on the pages of
00:59:22
newspapers and magazines and immediately followed by changes
00:59:25
and
00:59:27
immediate
00:59:30
[music]
00:59:32
changes, the beginning of November became a
00:59:35
time of political storms for the capital and
00:59:38
Truly dramatic events, the course and
00:59:41
outcome of these events were largely determined by the
00:59:44
position of ordinary Muscovites, their determination and the
00:59:57
will of the country again was decided precisely in
01:00:00
[music]
01:00:03
Moscow But the turmoil passes, history
01:00:08
continues, a new page has opened in the
01:00:11
chronicle of Moscow events and our
01:00:14
capital again began to be
01:00:18
transformed, renewed, and the
01:00:22
ancient city came to a significant
01:00:24
milestone, it turned

01:00:49
years old come to me
01:00:52
take will take to me to Moscow
01:00:57
these words of Prince Yuri Dolgorukov
01:01:00
are given in the very first chronicle about
01:01:03
Moscow and history itself gave them a
01:01:06
symbolic prophetic meaning, they seemed to
01:01:10
predetermine the most important role of Moscow to
01:01:14
call to itself to gather the scattered
01:01:17
Russian lands to create a unified
01:01:22
[music]
01:01:24
state it grew significance for
01:01:27
Russia as a center of political
01:01:30
cultural spiritual
01:01:33
life, reviving after the invasions of Fires
01:01:36
and unrest, it became even more beautiful than
01:01:41
before. So, century after
01:01:44
century, all
01:01:47
850
01:01:52
years,
01:01:54
the capital celebrated its glorious anniversary
01:01:58
in the first days of September
01:02:00
1997, still
01:02:03
sunny and
01:02:05
warm in summer. We waited for a long time, prepared
01:02:08
for them, and it turned out to be a holiday like nothing
01:02:14
Moscow had ever seen in theatrical processions and
01:02:17
performances, which repeatedly played out the course of
01:02:20
Moscow history; long-standing but
01:02:23
unforgettable events;
01:02:34
representatives from all Russian regions came to Moscow for this holiday;
01:02:37
numerous guests;
01:02:40
several million people visited the center of the capital alone;
01:02:44
how quickly it changed before
01:02:47
the anniversary of Moscow, it is symbolic that
01:02:50
changes began with the reconstruction of the temple, whose place for
01:02:52
a long time was occupied by an outdoor swimming pool,
01:02:56
it seems as if time had not had time to set
01:02:59
events, these shots were taken in early
01:03:03
1995. The procession of the cross heads from the
01:03:06
Kremlin to Chistinskaya Square to the place where the
01:03:10
Cathedral of Christ
01:03:12
the Savior once stood here still there was nothing except a
01:03:15
small chapel, but it was already decided to
01:03:18
rebuild the temple, and on the day of the
01:03:22
Nativity of Christ, Patriarch Ale held a
01:03:26
solemn prayer service and a
01:03:28
laying ceremony, recreating the
01:03:38
shrines for the Moscow Government, the construction
01:03:41
became the most important object, literally before
01:03:44
our eyes,
01:03:48
the building was rising, the cross was already shining above the temple, it
01:03:52
was mesmerizing in the dawn of a huge golden
01:03:55
dome,
01:03:56
millions of people were involved in this miracle
01:03:58
not only in Moscow but throughout
01:04:01
Russia since the construction was carried out through
01:04:07
donations, less than 2 years
01:04:09
after the foundation was laid, the consecration of the
01:04:12
lower temple in the name of the Transfiguration
01:04:17
of the Lord took place here,
01:04:19
church services immediately began, as in in the past has become
01:04:22
one of the centers
01:04:26
[music]
01:04:32
many corners of the capital keep the memory of
01:04:35
our past about the achievements of our ancestors
01:04:38
among the most revered Poklonnaya
01:04:43
Gora the opening of a memorial in honor of the great
01:04:46
feat of arms became an
01:04:48
extremely important event Moscow and for all Russia
01:04:56
[music]
01:04:59
on the days of the anniversary people on Poklonnaya Gora they went to
01:05:03
worship selflessly the courage of the
01:05:06
heroes of the battle of Moscow of all large and
01:05:09
small battles of the Patriotic
01:05:12
[music]
01:05:16
war, the memory of it and the pain of the
01:05:19
losses suffered live in the hearts and to this day there
01:05:28
is time to destroy there is time to build
01:05:32
Much of what was destroyed in
01:05:34
Moscow in the pre-war years is now
01:05:37
rebuilt
01:05:43
[music]
01:05:50
[music]
01:05:57
during the anniversary celebrations, a
01:06:00
multi-tiered
01:06:02
underground shopping and cultural complex was opened on Manezhnaya Square,
01:06:05
history is reflected here in its own way, the
01:06:09
waters of the Neglinka river saw the light again, and the old
01:06:13
and new united into a single ensemble
01:06:18
[music]
01:06:26
build, completed the construction of a super
01:06:28
modern ceilings over the large
01:06:31
sports arena of the stadium in Luzhniki.
01:06:34
Under this roof,
01:06:36
competitions of the highest
01:06:39
class can be held. It turned out that mass residential
01:06:42
development can also please the eye and
01:06:45
form expressive
01:06:48
ensembles. The city is already crowded within the boundaries of the
01:06:51
ring road.
01:06:55
This road has long required
01:06:57
decisive reconstruction. But only now is
01:07:00
it turning into a modern
01:07:06
highway Having completed the work here, the
01:07:08
road workers plan to begin the
01:07:10
construction of another transport
01:07:12
ring through the entire city along the line of the
01:07:15
Circular Railway
01:07:17
[music]
01:07:22
road. The features of Moscow of the 20th century appear
01:07:26
more and more clearly. And not only in the
01:07:28
architectural fantasies of the architects,
01:07:32
this covered passage through Moscow is
01:07:36
only the first Swallow in a series of similar
01:07:39
structures and the first visible feature of the bold
01:07:43
plan is the creation of the Moscow City business center in the area of
01:07:45
Krasnopresnenskaya embankment
01:07:51
[music]
01:07:55
Muscovites of course have earned the right
01:07:58
to be proud of what they have done, they have earned the right to
01:08:01
this holiday, its scope is quite
01:08:03
consistent with the scale of the
01:08:08
transformation, the mother throne again
01:08:10
showed the world its best features, the breadth of
01:08:14
hospitality and
01:08:16
hospitality, further strengthening it
01:08:19
its Prestige
01:08:21
[music]
01:08:26
which is especially important for young people; the
01:08:29
prosperity of their hometown is a kind of
01:08:31
guarantee of their success. But above all, a
01:08:35
strong moral foundation is important in their future life;
01:08:38
it is not without reason that the holiday program
01:08:41
included the opening of the fully equipped
01:08:43
territory of the Cathedral of Christ the Savior
01:08:47
[music] an
01:08:59
incredible number of concerts and processions
01:09:02
performances and festivals

01:09:25
face a prophetic call for fraternal
01:09:29
unity will you come to me in
01:09:36
Moscow so the

line is left behind it is impossible to reflect the entire history of the city
01:09:45
on the screen only
01:09:48
some of its pages are open, but they also help
01:09:51
