O dzielnicy
The St Andrew Monastery on the Moskva River is known from the 17th century; in 1648 a school, one of the first in Moscow, was founded here. In the 18th–19th centuries country estates, including Vasilyevskoye, stood on the slopes.
In the 1940s–1950s Leninsky Prospekt was lined with monumental buildings. In 1980 a 42-metre titanium monument to the first cosmonaut was erected on Gagarin Square.
