Pond with ducks

            At night the first snow fell and an hour before dawn I came to the park.
Krasnogorsk city park is not only a pond with ducks, it is a historical place.
A carefully preserved forest park zone, which is more than 150 years old, was founded on the site of the historical estate "Znamenskoye-Gubailovo". The new estate of V.M. Dolgoruky, the Moscow governor-general, had to correspond to his high rank of commander, and for this purpose a unique site with a unique landscape was chosen.
Under V.V. Dolgoruk (XIX century), the formation of the park received its main development: a regular park with a gazebo and a pavilion was laid out, and a pine forest in the north-western part of the estate began to play the role of a landscape "English" garden with walking paths.
In 1930, the foundation was laid for the organization of a city park of culture, the official opening of which took place in 1940.
The park was named “Park of Culture and Leisure of the Krasnogorsk Mechanical Plant”. It became one of the first urban cultural institutions in the city, founded in the first half of the 20th century.
Before the war, it was the busiest place where people could watch movies, drama performances, attend concerts, dance, and spin on the carousel. The doors of the new restaurant were opened for the townspeople.
When the Great Patriotic War began, during the days of the defense of Moscow, shelters-cracks were dug out in front of the main entrance to the park for residents of nearby houses. In 1941, a cavalry regiment of the Red Army was stationed in the park.
In 1948, the park territory was significantly expanded. German prisoners of war built a gate with columns and ticket booths (demolished in 1997), new alleys were broken, linden trees and ornamental shrubs were planted, stone flower beds were installed, and a fountain was set up.
In the late 90s, the reconstruction of the park began. A metal fence appeared almost along the entire perimeter, a new "Green Theater" was built. There are barbecue houses on the banks of one of the ponds.
