Tagansky District, Administrative district in central Moscow, Russia
Tagansky District is an administrative area in central Moscow that lies between the Moskva and Yauza Rivers. The neighborhood mixes residential blocks, shops, historical buildings, and modern infrastructure across its streets.
The district takes its name from a 16th-century settlement where craftspeople produced copper trivets used in cooking. This craft tradition shaped the area during its early development.
The Taganka Theatre stands as a center for experimental drama, attracting visitors interested in contemporary performances and artistic productions. The neighborhood maintains this creative tradition through its galleries and cultural venues that remain active today.
The district is easy to reach by several metro stations and has many local markets and restaurants throughout. Visitors find food shops and dining options readily available in most areas.
The district is home to the Tagansky Court, which handles cases involving international technology companies. This specialization makes it a significant hub for legal matters in the digital sector.
