Where is the city of Ridder. Ridder detailed map - streets, house numbers, areas

Ridder is a small, provincial town, but it has its own interesting story. Man chose these abundant places in ancient times, in the Stone Age, as evidenced by the stone tools found by archaeologists on the territory of the city.

The fact that Altai is rich in minerals was remembered during the reign of Empress Catherine II. The history of the city begins in 1786, when a royal decree was issued on the need to begin searching for “not only ores, but also all kinds of useful stones and minerals.” At the beginning of May 1786, 9 search parties were sent to Altai, one of which was led by 27-year-old mountain officer Philip Ridder. On May 31, 1786, he discovers a very rich deposit containing gold, silver, and base metals. In the summer of the same year, the first buildings were erected and the settlement received the name Ridder Mine. This is how the city of Ridder was founded.

The uniqueness of the ores of the Ridder deposit has been repeatedly noted by specialists at various levels and commissions. It became famous far beyond Russia. In 1850, Ridder ores received the highest rating at the London World Exhibition, and in 1879, samples of them were included in the “collection of the museum of the Stockholm Royal Technical Institute.”
Years passed, governments and formations changed. At the beginning of the twentieth century, Ridder experienced a number of foreign concessions, years of revolution and civil war. The settlement of the Ridder mine becomes the village of Ridder, then a settlement, and finally, from January 1, 1932, the city of Ridder. On the eve of the war, the city of Ridder was renamed the city of Leninogorsk.
Industrial construction in Leninogorsk during the years of Soviet power gained wide scope. The Lead Plant was built - the first-born of non-ferrous metallurgy in Kazakhstan, the Leninogorsk cascade of hydroelectric power stations - the only one in Kazakhstan and the second in the USSR, mines, factories, residential areas, and a Zinc plant. A mining and metallurgical technical school was opened on the basis of the Factory Training School (FZO).
For services to providing Soviet army and the Navy during the Great Patriotic War Leninogorsk Polymetallic Plant was awarded the Order of the Red Banner of Labor on May 30, 1966, and the Order of the Patriotic War, 1st degree, on May 4, 1985.
In the year of its 200th anniversary, Leninogorsk was awarded on July 14, 1986 the Order of Friendship of Peoples for the successes of workers achieved in economic and cultural construction, for their contribution to the fight against German fascist invaders during the Great Patriotic War.
The places around Ridder are truly fabulous. Ridder is located in the northeast of Kazakhstan, at the foot of the Ivanovo Range, in an intermountain depression at an altitude of 700 to 900 meters above sea level. The climate is sharply continental; in summer the thermometer rises to plus 35.4 degrees, in winter it drops to minus 41.3.

Ridder covers an area of ​​320 square meters. kilometers. The population is more than 58 thousand people. On the territory of the city there is the Altai Botanical Garden, founded in 1935 by P.A. Ermakov. Every year, ABS takes an active part in landscaping not only the city, but also other cities and villages in our country and sells more than 5 thousand seedlings, 10 thousand perennial flower plants, and up to 20 thousand annuals. For the successes achieved, the ABS was accepted into International Association botanical gardens.
Western Altai State Nature Reserve (ZAGPZ) makes its feasible contribution to the conservation biological diversity region. It was organized in 1992 and is located in the northeast of our region, on the border with the Russian Federation. Occupies parts of the territories of the Zyryanovsky district and the lands of Ridder. (the area is more than 50 thousand hectares). ZAGZZ, in its natural and climatic conditions, reflects all the specific features of the South Siberian taiga. In terms of floristic richness and diversity of fauna, ZAGPZ occupies one of the leading places among 10 nature reserves in Kazakhstan. The flora of vascular plants is represented by 880 species from 350 genera and 85 families. There are 96 rare species that require special protection, including 27 listed in the Red Book of Kazakhstan. The fauna of ZAGPZ includes 150 species of birds, 55 species of mammals and about 10 thousand species of invertebrates, including 8 species listed in the Red Book. Taking into account its special ecological, scientific and recreational significance, the reserve is classified in the highest category of “Specially Protected Natural Areas” of Republican significance with the status of an environmental institution with a reserve regime.
The leading sectors of the economy are mining, non-ferrous metallurgy, energy and food production.
One of the largest users of natural resources in the region is Kazzinc LLP. On the territory of the Eastern region there are 6 Kazzinc production complexes, among them the Ridder mining and processing complex, which is the city-forming enterprise of the city of Ridder.
Today, RGOC includes the Ridder-Sokolny and Tishinsky mines, a processing plant, a number of auxiliary workshops and divisions, and subsidiaries.

On the territory of this city, located in Rudny Altai at the foot of the Ivanovo Range, in the upper reaches of the Ulba River (a tributary of the Irtysh), people settled in the Stone Age, as evidenced by archaeological excavations. And it became famous in 1786, when a very rich deposit containing gold, silver, and base metals was discovered here. In 1850, the ores found received the highest praise at the London World Exhibition, and in 1879, samples of them were included in the collection of the museum of the Stockholm Royal Technical Institute.

The name Ridder will most likely mean little to most Kazakhstanis. Because the city of Ridder in Soviet times was called Leninogorsk. By this name he is known to middle-aged people. But the oldest people still know him as Ridder, which is what he actually was until the 40s of the last century. So, let’s summarize - Ridder first became Leninogorsk, and then again Ridder.

Replaceable monument

So, the city of Lenin again became the city of Ridder. On this occasion, dramatic changes took place on its main square - Lenin was removed from the pedestal and sent somewhere far away, and they put him in his place... But no! The stone was placed. And on it is a bas-relief of Ridder.

What caused such a passionate love among the townspeople for a man with the strange surname Ridder? Just history!

And the story with Ridder is typical for Rudny Altai. Once Philip Ridder, a young mining engineer, was walking through the mountains, walking and walking, and he found what he was looking for. Serious riches of local subsoil, which have no equal in the entire Altai. This happened back in 1786. The local mining settlement became a city only in 1932. But still - the city of Ridder, and Leninogorsk was made later, ten years later.

Philip Ridder discovered not only the richest ore deposits, but also over fifty varieties of ornamental stones. Magnificent vases, boxes, pedestals, and columns were made from Ridder jaspers and breccias. Some of these works of art are exhibited in the Hermitage.

For his services in the search for deposits of ores and colored stones in June 1786, he was promoted to rank and received awards: the Order of St. John of Jerusalem, the Order of St. Vladimir, 4th degree.

Was here…

The unique geology and interesting geography attracted many wonderful people to Ridder. For example, the founding father of modern geography, Alexander Humboldt, visited here. In August 1829. During his famous and difficult expedition through Russia, during which Humboldt reached Altai. The difficulty of the expedition was that the world-famous scientist was greeted everywhere with purely Russian attention and hospitality, so that the dinners were remembered more than the research.

True, the Ridder people distinguished themselves here. According to recollections, in Ridder Humboldt and his comrades were given several crappy kennels to stay in, and in addition they were kept there all day without food. Therefore, here eminent Germans finally saw a lot of what they could not see from behind tables in other places in Russia. Humboldt went down into the mines, examined the upper reaches of the Ulba, and even looked beyond the Ivanovsky Belok - to the noisy and wild Gromotukha River.

Another famous visitor to Ridder was Pyotr Semyonov (Tian-Shansky), who came here before traveling to the Tien Shan in the summer of 1856. By that time, the attitude towards travelers had changed radically here. “It was not yet completely dark when we finally reached Riddersk, where we found the most cordial hospitality in the house of an educated mining engineer from the Ridder mine,” recalled Semyonov.

Semenov also visited the mines, visited Gromotukha and even climbed to the top of Ivanovsky Belok, where he was caught in severe bad weather and caught a cold so much that he was forced not only to change his immediate plans, but also to receive further treatment on the way to the Tien Shan, in Kapalsky Arasany.

The road from Ust-Kamenogorsk to Ridder is remarkable for its views, which give the traveler the picturesque spurs of Altai at any time of the year. In winter, when everything is covered with a soft and cold layer of snow-white snow, local villages look especially mysterious and enchanted. As, however, villages founded by Old Believers who fled to Altai in the 18th century in search of a mysterious promised land- Belovodya. The descendants of those Old Believers live, or rather survive, in these villages to this day. Young people, however, no longer hold on to what was the meaning of life for many generations of their ancestors.

Of the villages encountered along the way, the most picturesque is Zimovye, freely spread between fir-covered hills.

Ridder is similar to Rio de Janeiro. Because all its blocks and districts are separated from each other by low hills and beautiful pine forests. So, in fact, this is not a city, but several mining villages and a regional center, scattered across intermountain basins. To make the picture more complete, you need to add to this the mines and shafts - with the smoke of the stokers and the lift towers that meet your gaze here and there.

Among the attractions, I would recommend visiting the small historical and local history museum (next to the main square) and the botanical garden. However, the latter is unlikely to make an impression in winter time. Lovers of owl art can find the monument to Kirov. (Or they may not find it - time is against you).

The best hotel in the city is “Altai”, also located near the Ridder monument. There are also several good catering establishments here. At the Ridder Bazaar you can buy pine nuts, fur mittens and frozen fish. In winter, frozen fish is the standard of frostbite. If you take two fish and knock one against the other, a slight ringing sound is heard, as if they were made of iron. But this is not surprising. After all, the temperature outside is such that even the most advanced Korean refrigerators cannot reach.

For lovers of skiing, there is a ski trail right in the city, and in the surrounding area there are numerous ski tracks for those who like to run or walk. The surroundings of Ridder, I say responsibly, are worth walking around!

General overview of the city

The city of Ridder was founded in 1934. The city's territory occupies 3.4 thousand sq. km. As of January 1, 2010, the city's population was 58.2 thousand people. Ethnic composition for the same period is represented in the following ratio: Kazakhs - 9.6%, Russians - 85.5%, Tatars - 1%, Germans -1.1%, Ukrainians - 1%, Belarusians - 0.3%, other nationalities - 1.2%. The administrative subordination of the city includes 1 city, 1 settlement district, 1 rural district, 19 rural settlements.(1)

The city of Ridder is the third largest industrial center of the East Kazakhstan region after Ust-Kamenogorsk and Semey. The administrative territory of the region is located in the north-east of Kazakhstan, at the foot of the Ivanovo Range, in an intermountain depression at an altitude of 700 to 900 meters above sea level, in the Leninogorsk depression, in the mountain forest-steppe zone.

The city of Ridder is part of the Ust-Kamenogorsk agglomeration, has promising deposits of polymetallic ores, is provided with water and forest resources, and resources for the production of building materials.

Polymetallic deposits are characterized by a predominance of lead-zinc ores containing gold, silver, cadmium, antimony, arsenic, tin, iron, sulfur and other elements. Deposits of building materials are represented by raw bricks, sand and gravel mixtures and sands.

The climate of the region is sharply continental, character traits- cold long winters, moderately cool summers, large annual and daily fluctuations in air temperature. The average annual temperature is +1.5 degrees Celsius, average temperature January -12.7 degrees, absolute minimum -47 degrees, average July temperature +16.7, absolute maximum +37. The annual precipitation is 675mm, the fall is uneven throughout the year: 126mm falls in the winter (November-March), and 549mm in the summer (April-October).

In the Leninogorsk depression, a landscape of mountain forest-steppe type is developed: dark coniferous taiga, mixed forests, shrubs and tall herbs. Occupies a significant area Pinery, located in the vicinity of Ridder. Widespread use of land for economic purposes is difficult due to the mountainous terrain.

The region has many small watercourses and streams, a well-developed network of rivers, which merge to form the Ulba River. All rivers are mountainous, with rapid currents and rocky beds. The source of water supply for the city of Ridder is the Maloulbinskoye reservoir, located in a mountain basin. The mirror area is 3.7 km.km., volume is 84 million cubic meters.

Cold radon waters have been identified in the region, which can be used for medicinal purposes.

The region is home to the Altai Botanical Garden, founded in 1936 as one of the first in the former Soviet Union. In the northeast of the region, on the border with the Russian Federation, the Western Altai State Nature Reserve, formed in 1992, is located. It occupies parts of the territories of the Zyryanovsky district and the lands of Ridder, its area is more than 50 thousand hectares.

The reserve, in its natural and climatic conditions, reflects all the specific features of the South Siberian taiga. In terms of floristic richness and diversity of fauna, it occupies one of the leading places among 10 nature reserves in Kazakhstan. The flora of vascular plants is represented by 880 species from 350 genera and 85 families. There are 96 rare species that require special protection, of which 27 are listed in the Red Book of Kazakhstan. The fauna of the reserve includes 150 species of birds, 55 species of mammals and about 10 thousand species of invertebrates, including 8 species listed in the Red Book. Taking into account the special ecological, scientific and recreational significance, the reserve is classified in the highest category of “Specially Protected Natural Areas” of republican significance with the status of an environmental institution with a reserve regime.

The uniqueness of natural data and industrial potential make it possible to develop horse and hiking tourism, mountaineering, rafting, paragliding, ecotourism (observation of flora and fauna), health tourism, geological tourism (collecting minerals, rock samples), extreme tourism , automobile, motorcycle and bicycle tourism, ski and alpine ski tourism and other areas.

Ridder is a small, provincial town, but it has its own interesting history. Man chose these abundant places in ancient times, in the Stone Age, as evidenced by the stone tools found by archaeologists on the territory of the city.
The fact that Altai is rich in minerals was remembered during the reign of Empress Catherine II. The history of the city begins in 1786, when a royal decree was issued on the need to begin searching for “not only ores, but also all kinds of stones and minerals.”

At the beginning of May 1786, 9 search parties were sent to Altai, one of which was led by 27-year-old mountain officer Philip Ridder, the grandson of a Swedish military doctor captured by the Russians near Poltava, the son of a Russified garment manufacturer. On May 31, 1786, he discovers a very rich deposit containing gold, silver, and base metals. In the summer of the same year, the first buildings were erected and the settlement received the name Ridder Mine.

The uniqueness of the ores of the Ridder deposit has been repeatedly noted by specialists at various levels and commissions. It became famous far beyond Russia. In 1850, Ridder ores received the highest rating at the London World Exhibition, and in 1879, samples of them were included in the “collection of the museum of the Stockholm Royal Technical Institute.”

Years passed, governments and formations changed. At the beginning of the twentieth century, Ridder experienced a number of foreign concessions, years of revolution and civil war. The settlement of the Ridder mine becomes the village of Ridder, then a settlement, and finally, from January 1932, the city of Ridder. On the eve of the war, the city of Ridder was renamed the city of Leninogorsk.

Industrial construction in Leninogorsk during the years of Soviet power gained wide scope. The Lead Plant was built - the first-born of non-ferrous metallurgy in Kazakhstan, the Leninogorsk cascade of hydroelectric power stations - the only one in Kazakhstan and the second in the USSR, mines, factories, residential areas, and a Zinc plant. A mining and metallurgical technical school was opened on the basis of the Factory Training School (FZO).

The region's economy is focused on the development of polymetallic deposits and ore processing, heat and hydropower industries, and small business.

The pronounced industrial orientation is due to the dominance of the mining industry and non-ferrous metallurgy. To a large extent, mechanical engineering, energy, and small businesses are also focused on servicing this sector. The region's industry is represented by 16 large and medium-sized enterprises in the fields of mining, non-ferrous metallurgy, mechanical engineering, heat and power, water supply and sewerage services, as well as small and auxiliary enterprises.

The city of Ridder makes a significant contribution to the economy of the region and the Republic. Entrepreneurship plays an important role in the city's economy. Business entities of all forms of ownership operate in the city: large, medium, small enterprises, mixed markets, municipal trading floors, shops, pharmacies, gas stations, catering establishments, canteens, and enterprises providing services to the public.

One of the largest users of natural resources in the region is Kazzinc LLP. On the territory of the Eastern region there are 6 production complexes of Kazzinc LLP, among them the Ridder Mining and Processing Complex (RGOC), the Ridder Zinc Plant, which are the city-forming enterprises of the city of Ridder. Today, RGOC includes the Ridder-Sokolny and Tishinsky mines, a processing plant, a number of auxiliary workshops and divisions, and subsidiaries.

The city-forming enterprises of the region also include JSC Kaztyumen and LLP Kazzincmash. Other well-known enterprises in the city are “Shemazat”, Manufacturing and trading company “Gemma”, “Volna”, “Vertical”, “Geolen”, “Infroservice”, etc.

The main types of industrial products: copper, lead-zinc, gold ore and their concentrates, unprocessed lead, unprocessed zinc, heat energy, sausages, bread and bakery products, beer.

The city's infrastructure is unusually wide. This includes road construction, road repair and restoration, power supply and lighting, transport, communications, engineering support, water supply and city landscaping.

Story

The city of Ridder was founded in 1786 as the village of Ridder and named after the mining engineer Philip Ridder, the discoverer of ore deposits. The history of the city of Ridder is associated with the exploitation of polymetallic ore deposits discovered at the end of the 17th century.
Before the establishment of Soviet power, the Ridder deposits belonged to the English entrepreneur Urquhart, who quickly organized production, built a small power plant, an enrichment plant and laid Railway to Ust-Kamenogorsk. In May 1918, a decree was signed on the nationalization of Ridder enterprises and their transfer to Soviet power. Already in the 20s, regular exploitation of the Ridder and other deposits began.
