Kalyazin, Historical town on Volga River, Russia
Kalyazin stands on the right bank of the Volga River, at an elevation of 120 meters, 175 kilometers northeast of Tver administrative center.
The settlement originated as a tax-free sloboda in the 12th century and gained importance after the establishment of Makaryevsky Monastery across the Volga River.
The town maintains sixteen federal cultural monuments and twenty-two local heritage sites, preserving the regional history through the Kalyazinsky District Museum.
Visitors reach Kalyazin through direct train connections from Moscow Savyolovsky station, with additional routes to Kashin, Uglich, Rybinsk, and Sonkovo.
The Uglich Reservoir construction in the 1940s submerged the old town and monastery, leaving only the Bell Tower partially above water.
