There wonderfully co-exist remote ages and modern life, history and present day. The architectural ensemble of the Trinity-St. Sergius Monastery is inscribed on the UNESCO List of the World Cultural Heritage. The Ancient Trinity Monastery and the earliest surrounding settlements participated in the important events in history of the Russian State. In the picturesque town and its environs lives and worked famous writers and artists: M.M. Prishvin, V.A. Favorsky, A.V. Lentulov, V.A.
