Suvorov baths - thermal springs

The fact is that Suvorov's thermal baths are named so because they are in the village with the same name. Although Generalissimo Suvorov has an indirect relationship to this place.

How it all began

The village was founded in 1825. It served as a sanitary checkpoint and was called Quarantine. Of course, the glory of the great commander also reached these places. By the way, he was not far from here - in a military camp, located a few kilometers from the settlement. Cossacks living in this village, expressed a desire to call it in honor of the Generalissimo, and wrote a letter to the emperor-emperor. They wrote about the nearby burial mound and asked to name Suvorovskaya. The Emperor granted their request. Despite the loud name, the village did not stand out among others until in the middle of the 20th century thermal springs were discovered on its territory , the water from which rises to the surface of the earth from a depth of several kilometers.

There are 6 schools, 3 kindergartens, a house of culture, a hospital, shops, the Orthodox Church, named after the holy martyrs of the Faith, Hope, Love. It was consecrated in 1993.
