WALLED CITY
If in 1636 Mikhail
Fedorovich had not ordered
to build a fortress on the
Tsna River, then the Tatar
nomads would have
continued to attack the
Muscovite state.
For 4 months, the Tonba
fortress was erected. The
first inhabitants of the
fortress were the
Mordovians. They gave that
name. “Tonba” in translation
from Mordovian means
“swamp, lowland”.

Why are there three bees on the
coat of arms of Tambov?
In 1781, the coat of arms of the
city of Tambov was approved - a
beehive and three bees on an
azure background as a symbol of
hard work and board fishing.
Indeed, you cannot find sweeter
honey from Tambov in all of
Russia..

The legend of the bees
“When the past, present and future unite in one
circle, the Tambov land will be transformed,” says
the legend of our city.
The elder, who appeared to Vanyatka, explained
that the bee on his right hand would collect
knowledge gained from experience and honest
labor, the bee on his left hand would collect and
preserve beauty, and the bee that sat on his
forehead would preserve and strengthen faith..

Beauty Tsna
I am glad to devote a page of
poetry.
For you, the Tambov river.
You cannot compare with others:
You are not Volga and not Oka.
But I live by your side
I hear your spring noise
Your freshness, joy,
I breathe sultry in the weather ...
Day caresses you with rays
The moon admires in the night
You, calm, simple,
slightly brooding Tsna.

Tambov wolf who is a
friend?
There were always wolves in the
Tambov region. Common wolves, no
special "Tambov" breed does not exist.
There was also a stable phrase
"Bryansk wolf", but the term "Tambov
wolf" was not. According to I.
Ovsyannikov, a local historian from
Tambov, the term appeared at the end
of the 19th century. The Tambov region
was an agricultural land, after the
completion of seasonal work, thousands
of men left for other cities to earn extra
money. They took on any job, even for a
penny payment, interrupting the
earnings of local residents. They
grumbled with displeasure: "Again the
Tambov wolves are scouring the yards,
knocking down the price."
