About this app

This app will become your personal guide to Rybinsk, a unique city on the Volga River where the history of barge haulers, merchant acumen, and grandiose hydrotechnical construction projects are intertwined. Here you will discover the power of the river port, the industrial splendor, and the cozy atmosphere of its ancient streets. All content is divided into four key sections.

The "History" section will take you through the key milestones that shaped the city's character: from a fishing village to the "capital of barge haulers," from the heyday of the grain trade and merchant class to the grandiose construction of the Rybinsk Hydroelectric Power Station and Reservoir, which radically changed the landscape and life of the entire Upper Volga region.

The "Places" section transforms the app into a detailed interactive guide. The map highlights key points: the majestic New Grain Exchange, a symbol of the city, the historic merchant streets, the monumental hydroelectric dam, observation decks overlooking the Rybinsk Sea, and museums dedicated to shipping and space exploration.

The "Culture" section will immerse you in the unique atmosphere of this Volga city. Here you can learn about the culture of river workers and shipbuilders, the traditions of celebrating Volga Day, Rybinsk's cinematic legends, the local dialect, and culinary specialties born at the intersection of water, grain trade, and the multinational port.

The "People" section is a gallery of memorable personalities who have left their mark on Rybinsk's history: from the legendary merchants and philanthropists Efremov and Miklyuti to aircraft engine inventor Vladimir Klimov, from heroic river workers to Soviet hydroelectric engineers and cosmonauts whose names are associated with the local instrument-making plant. Each one is dedicated to a short article.
