Slaven this village for many things: the ruins of the fortress of Peter and the archaeological excavations of the ancient Zvenigorod, and the sources of unique mineral water ... All this I will somehow tell, but first tell about the synagogue in 1532 built and abandoned Jewish cemetery with very interesting plates .
