Village Kavalerovo located in the mountain valley of the Southern Sikhote-Alin on the river Zerkalnaya. The village is surrounded by mountains and forests. The name of the village was given in honor of its founder - holder of the Order of St. George Fyodor Popolitov.

Story

The first settlers of Kavalerovo were, like Popolitov, immigrants from the Voronezh province. In 1942, the Khrustalnensky Mining and Processing Plant (KhGOK) was launched, which led to the rapid growth of the village. This city-forming enterprise produced 30% of all tin mined in the USSR. In 1992, HGOK closed, the city's economy fell into decay. Nowadays, only logging is developed in Kavalerovo.

The KhGOK building is in disrepair, only some of the premises are used as warehouses for small firms. In the village of Fabrichny (2 kilometers north of Kavalerovo) there is a large almost ownerless tailing dump, which is harmful to the health of local residents.

The absence of the sweltering heat, characteristic of southern resorts. The summer period provides more opportunities for excursions related to natural attractions.

In 1951 with. Kavalerovo was given the status of a working settlement. And in 1954, with the formation Kavalerovsky district, the village becomes a regional center. At the time of formation of the district, the population was 17.9 thousand people. There were 18 settlements on the territory, including 3 workers' settlements: Kavalerovo, Rudny, Khrustalny. Since 1956, Vysokogorsk was classified as a workers' settlement.

The village of Kavalerovo is the center of the district. The beginning of the settlement of the Kavalerovsky district dates back to 1907, when the influx of immigrants to the Far East increased. The origin of the name of the village Kavalerovo is interesting. In October 1909, a retired soldier settled on the Ludeo plot. Fedor Dmitrievich Popolitov , originally from the Voronezh province, a participant in the war of 1904 - 1905, awarded the Distinction of the Military Order of the 4th degree. This award later became known as the St. George Cross, and Popolitov was colloquially called the Knight of St. George. From April 1910, newly arrived new settlers began to move in, who named the place where Popolitov lived Kavalerovsky. This name was approved on October 13, 1910 in the Primorsky Regional Presence for Peasant Affairs.

In 1938, Fyodor Popolitov was repressed. He was recognized as a Japanese spy and was shot on January 22, 1938. As a legacy from F.D. Popolitov, the inhabitants of the village got a beautiful, unique name.

Kavalerovo would have remained a deaf, taiga village, if in the late 30s - early 40s. in its vicinity, geologists have not discovered a number of tin deposits. Search, exploration and development of tin deposits of Dubrovsky, Khrustalnensky, Vysokogorsky, Verkhny, Silinsky in the 30-40s opened a completely new page in the history of the future Kavalerovsky district. There are new enterprises for exploration, mining and processing of tin ore. The following settlements were built at the first mines: Khrustalny, Lifudzin (Rudny), Ludye (Fabbrichny), Vysokogorsk.

The Great Patriotic War. Tin is a strategic metal and the country needed it. Intensified exploration and, at the same time, development of deposits began. This gave impetus to the development of the village, the population began to grow rapidly. Along with the mining industry, the construction industry began to develop.

Engaged in the development and extraction of tin ore deposits Khrustalnensky Mining and Processing Plant, which was formed in 1941. Then it was called Enterprise 501. Since 1954, it has become Khrustalnensky GOK. More than half of the population worked at the plant and enterprises serving it. 1970 - 1980 - the heyday of KGOK. One fifth of the country's tin was mined here. Kavalerovo was popularly called the capital of the tin region. The best mining brigades and foremen, high-speed tunneling, records for tunneling and tin mining - all these are signs of that time. All domestic achievements of science and practice in the tin mining industry were introduced at the plant. The enterprise was proud of highly qualified specialists, innovators, and was a permanent participant of VDNKh. Foreign specialists were trained on the basis of KhGOK.

In the early 90s, during perestroika, the city-forming enterprise Khrustalnensky combine became a joint-stock company. Under the new conditions, the enterprise could not cope with difficult problems. It went bankrupt and liquidated. The mines, which were once the pride of the region, have been dismantled and flooded. Unemployment came to the villages.

The main problem of modern Kavalerovo is the lack of jobs, especially for men. Perhaps someday the main wealth of the region, tin, will be in demand.

The village of Ustinovka is named after Alexei Ivanovich Ustinov, who graduated from the Pskov Land Surveying School in 1894 and got a job as a draftsman in the Primorsky Regional Drawing Office. An amazing land captured A.I. Ustinov, he lived in Primorye for 62 years. Five years of labor activity for the benefit of the region, which has become native, are associated with the settlement of the Olginsky district. Ustinov is engaged in accommodating settlers, allocating land to them, supplying rural communities with loans and allowances for the construction of mills, schools, forges, building roads and bridges, importing seeds, flour, and oats. In 1913, several peasant families united in the village of Ustinovka. In the 1930s, a collective farm was created in the village, named after Chapaev. Here they were engaged in the cultivation of potatoes, vegetables, cattle breeding developed. Then the collective farm was reorganized into a state farm, and the Ustinovites were still engaged in agriculture, including beekeeping.

The village of Bogopol is the first settlement that was formed in the Tadushinsky valley. It is widely believed that one of the first settlers, seeing a beautiful valley, called it God's field. By 1910, Bogopol had become a fairly large village. Under Soviet rule, the Rising Star collective farm was organized here. In primitive, unsuitable premises for the storage and repair of equipment, the Tadushinsky MTS was organized to provide other collective farms with equipment for field work. In the autumn of 1956, all the collective farms in the villages of Suvorovo, Bogopol, Zerkalny were reorganized into a single state farm "Gornorechensky" ("Tadushi"). The state farm allocated a lot of funds for the improvement of the village of Bogopol. The gradual development of the village began. To replace the adobe and dilapidated houses, standard semi-detached houses were built. Smooth, wide streets appeared, a rural House of Culture, an automatic telephone exchange, a wired radio came, and later satellite dishes appeared. The villagers began to watch the first and second programs of the central television.

The village of Mirror was not much different from other villages in the valley of the Mirror River. Wretched adobe houses, a small club with a library. There were no good roads or bridges across the river. With the organization of the Gornorechensky state farm, the situation in the village changed dramatically. With the help of Khrustalnensky GOK and other sponsoring enterprises, the rapid construction of housing stock and industrial premises began. A large share for the improvement of the village and the development of the production capacity of the state farm, in particular, the fourth department, fell to the share of SU-1 (Construction Department). This construction organization has erected and put into operation the most powerful dairy complex for 850 heads of dairy herds and one and a half thousand young animals. Also, an educational complex of a ten-year school, one of the best kindergartens in the district, 2 two-story eight-apartment buildings with utilities for livestock breeders, and a House of Culture were built. The village has been renovated good roads, wide and bright streets, a water conduit was laid, columns were installed. They had their own automatic telephone exchange and a hospital with a staff of medical staff. Every year the village grew, lived comfortably, culture developed. Young people aspired to higher educational institutions and returned back already as specialists. During the perestroika period, the dairy complex ceased its activities, there was an outflow of young people, and at present the village is experiencing economic difficulties.

An excerpt characterizing Kavalerovo

– What does this prove? - he said at the time when Rostov drove up to them. “They could have retreated and left the pickets.
- Apparently, not everyone has left yet, prince, - said Bagration. Until tomorrow morning, we'll find out tomorrow.
“There is a picket on the mountain, Your Excellency, everything is the same as it was in the evening,” Rostov reported, leaning forward, holding his hand at the visor and unable to restrain the smile of fun caused in him by his trip and, most importantly, by the sounds of bullets.
“Good, good,” said Bagration, “thank you, Mr. Officer.
“Your Excellency,” said Rostov, “permit me to ask you.
- What?
- Tomorrow our squadron is assigned to the reserves; let me ask you to attach me to the 1st squadron.
- What's your last name?
- Count Rostov.
- Oh good. Stay with me as an orderly.
- Ilya Andreich's son? Dolgorukov said.
But Rostov did not answer him.
“So I hope, Your Excellency.
- I'll order.
“Tomorrow, very possibly, they will send some kind of order to the sovereign,” he thought. - Thank God".

The cries and fires in the enemy army came from the fact that while the order of Napoleon was being read to the troops, the emperor himself was riding around his bivouacs. The soldiers, seeing the emperor, lit bunches of straw and, shouting: vive l "empereur!, ran after him. Napoleon's order was as follows:
"Soldiers! The Russian army comes out against you to avenge the Austrian, Ulm army. These are the same battalions which you defeated at Gollabrunn and which you have been constantly pursuing to this place ever since. The positions we occupy are powerful, and as long as they go to get around me on the right, they will expose me to the flank! Soldiers! I myself will lead your battalions. I will keep far from the fire if you, with your usual courage, bring disorder and confusion into the ranks of the enemy; but if victory is even for a moment in doubt, you will see your emperor exposed to the first blows of the enemy, because there can be no hesitation in victory, especially on a day when the honor of the French infantry, which is so necessary for the honor of his nation, is at issue.
Under the pretext of withdrawing the wounded, do not upset the ranks! Let everyone be fully imbued with the idea that it is necessary to defeat these mercenaries of England, inspired by such hatred against our nation. This victory will end our march, and we may return to our winter quarters, where we shall be found by the new French troops which are being formed in France; and then the peace I will make will be worthy of my people, you and me.
Napoleon."

At 5 o'clock in the morning it was still quite dark. The troops of the center, reserves and the right flank of Bagration were still standing motionless; but on the left flank, the columns of infantry, cavalry and artillery, which were to be the first to descend from the heights in order to attack the French right flank and push it, according to the disposition, into the Bohemian mountains, were already stirring and began to rise from their lodgings. The smoke from the fires, into which they threw everything superfluous, ate the eyes. It was cold and dark. The officers hurriedly drank tea and had breakfast, the soldiers chewed crackers, beat shots with their feet, warming themselves, and flocked against the fires, throwing the remains of booths, chairs, tables, wheels, tubs, everything superfluous that could not be taken away with them into the firewood. Austrian columnists scurried between the Russian troops and served as harbingers of the performance. As soon as an Austrian officer showed up near the regimental commander's camp, the regiment began to move: the soldiers ran away from the fires, hid their tubes in the tops, bags in the wagons, disassembled their guns and lined up. The officers buttoned up, put on their swords and knapsacks, and, shouting, went around the ranks; convoys and batmen harnessed, stacked and tied the wagons. Adjutants, battalion and regimental commanders mounted, crossed themselves, gave their last orders, instructions and assignments to the remaining convoys, and the monotonous tramp of a thousand feet sounded. The columns moved, not knowing where and not seeing from the surrounding people, from the smoke and from the growing fog, neither the area from which they left, nor the one into which they entered.
A soldier on the move is just as encircled, constrained, and drawn by his regiment, as a sailor is by the ship on which he is. No matter how far he goes, no matter how strange, unknown and dangerous latitudes he enters, around him - as for a sailor, always and everywhere the same decks, masts, ropes of his ship - always and everywhere the same comrades, the same rows, the same sergeant major Ivan Mitrich, the same company dog ​​Zhuchka, the same bosses. A soldier rarely wants to know the latitudes in which his whole ship is located; but on the day of the battle, God knows how and from where, in the moral world of the troops one stern note is heard for all, which sounds like the approach of something decisive and solemn and arouses them to an unusual curiosity. Soldiers in the days of battles excitedly try to get out of the interests of their regiment, listen, look closely and eagerly ask about what is happening around them.
The fog became so strong that, despite the fact that it was dawning, it was not visible ten paces ahead. The bushes looked like huge trees, the flat places looked like precipices and slopes. Everywhere, from all sides, one could encounter an enemy invisible ten paces away. But for a long time the columns walked in the same fog, descending and ascending the mountains, bypassing gardens and fences, across new, incomprehensible terrain, nowhere colliding with the enemy. On the contrary, now in front, now behind, from all sides, the soldiers learned that our Russian columns were moving in the same direction. Each soldier felt good at heart because he knew that where he was going, that is, no one knew where, there were still many, many of ours.
“Look, you, and the Kursk people have passed,” they said in the ranks.
- Passion, my brother, that our troops have gathered! Evening looked at how the lights were laid out, the end of the edge could not be seen. Moscow - one word!
Although none of the column commanders drove up to the ranks and did not speak with the soldiers (the column commanders, as we saw at the military council, were out of sorts and dissatisfied with the work being undertaken, and therefore only carried out orders and did not care to amuse the soldiers), despite On top of that, the soldiers went merrily, as always, going into action, especially in the offensive. But, after passing through a dense fog for about an hour, most of the troops had to stop, and an unpleasant consciousness of disorder and confusion swept through the ranks. How this consciousness is transmitted is very difficult to determine; but what is certain is that it is conveyed with unusual fidelity and quickly overflows, imperceptibly and uncontrollably, like water down a hollow. If the Russian army had been alone, without allies, then, perhaps, a long time would have passed before this consciousness of disorder would become a general confidence; but now, with particular pleasure and naturalness, attributing the cause of the disturbances to the stupid Germans, everyone was convinced that a harmful confusion was taking place, which the sausage workers had done.
