Local Ukrainians also frequently refer to the city as "Krasnohrad," literally meaning red city in the Russian language. The municipality of Chervonohrad also includes the town of Sosnivka and the urban type settlement of Hirnyk. ==History== In May 1685 the royal hetman, Kraków Voivode Feliks Kazimierz Potocki, bought himself a new piece of land on the Bug River. In 1692, he founded a city on the lands of the village "Novyi Dvir" (literally "New Garden", Polish: Nowy Dwór), which he named after his wife Krystyna Lubomirski (1661–1699). Potocki made Krystonopil' his family center. He died here on September 22, 1702. His grandson Franciszek Salezy Potocki built a palace and in 1763 founded a monastery of Basilians (barocco church of Saint George; prior to 1946 р. - miracle place with wonder icon of the Mother of God). In the 19th century, the "Apostolus Christinopolitanus" and a famous chronicle from 1763–1779, were kept in this city. The Catholic order of Myrrh-Bearing Sisters were founded in 1910 in Chervonohrad (then Krystynopil') by Fr. Yulian Datsii. The congregation was founded to gather funds to build a home for orphans and the poor. The first members of the congregation vowed to build two buildings: one for the people, and one for the congregation. In 1913 the first convent arose, where 15 sisters lived. Among the landmarks of the city is Count Potocki's palace, constructed by the order of Feliks Kazimierz Potocki after 1692. On August 1, 1990, Chervonohrad became the first city in the whole Soviet Union, where a monument to Communist leader Vladimir Lenin was removed. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Chervonohrad」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
