District History

Earlier, the Bald Mountain was covered with a dense forest. This name she received after cutting down the trees of the forest to build the bell tower of the Assumption Cathedral. This happened in the 20s of the 19th century. For a long time the spring water of the district was heated by the villages of Panasovka and Ivanovka. The situation changed only in the 60s of the same century, when builders laid railway tracks and carried out drainage works.

First, this area was populated by the poor population in 1840. People who lived on Bald Mountain, did not have the money to maintain their homes in good condition. From the second half of the 19th century (70-80s), the area was populated by ordinary workers who worked at the railway station. Also at that time workers of the brewery and ceramic factories were settled on the Bald Mountain.

Since 1898, Leningradskaya Street was building the Orthodox Church of the Kazan Icon of the Mother of God. It was built in 1912 according to the project of the diocesan architect Vladimir Nemkin on the land of rich merchant and resident of Kharkov - Konstantin Utkin. It was he who gave the go-ahead for the construction of the church. He donated 3000 rubles to her and in every way contributed to construction work. The church still works today. It never closed, it makes it unique. Also this church is an architectural monument of the city of Kharkov.

At the beginning of the 20th century, a kindergarten was opened on Bald Mountain. It was built for the children of the workers and the simple poor and housed 100 children, whom two educators looked after and looked after.

In the 20-ies on the top of the mountain began to build the village of Red October. It was built low-rise apartment houses, apartments were distributed to the workers of the railway.

Only at the beginning of the 21st century a cemetery of people killed by the famine in the years 1932-1933 of the last century was found in the territory of the area under land works. People died in the streets of Kharkov, their corpses were taken down to the outskirts of Progress Street and buried in the ground. Now on this place is established a historical memo.
