The established date of the celebration is directly related to the first mention of the city's name in the found chronicle sources. City Day in Moscow was not always celebrated on such a large scale and brightly as is customary today. It is worth mentioning that there were fierce disputes regarding the choice of the date of the holiday, and it was not celebrated at all right away - but only since the 700th anniversary. However, the holiday has a history.

Major milestones in history

The decision to celebrate the City Day in Moscow was first made in the middle of the 19th century. It was then that the question of celebrating the 700th anniversary of the city was raised, the proposal was supported by quite influential people:

A. Shcherbatov, who was the Governor-General of Moscow,
K. Aksakov, famous writer,
Moscow Metropolitan Filaret.

The historian Zabelin set about calculating the date of the event. exact date the first mention of Moscow in the Ipatiev Chronicle. He discovered that this happened on April 4, 1147. Disputes immediately arose, since Karamzin noted that the capital was first mentioned in March 1147. After some time, scientists came to an agreement, decided to celebrate the anniversary in the spring of 1847.

The planned celebrations were supposed to be spread over three days. The first day was supposed to be made a "church celebration", the other - a "scholarly celebration", which will take place on the territory of Moscow University, and on the same day it was planned to hold a ball in the house of the governor-general. On the third day, a "folk celebration" was planned, in which the residents of the city were to receive gifts in the city square.

Unfortunately, the plans were not destined to be realized. On the evening of December 31, 1846, Nicholas I ordered to postpone the celebrations to January 1, 1847. Of course, the celebrations took place, but not at all in the format that had been planned. Metropolitan Filaret said a prayer to the glory of Moscow in the Chudov Monastery, and prayers were also read in all other churches. For the masses in the center of the city, a festive installation was mounted from greasy bowls, but they quickly extinguished, a strong wind interfered.

The 800th anniversary of Moscow was celebrated more extensively and was remembered more. In 1947, Stalin ordered the capital day to be celebrated in early September. Then the medal "In Commemoration of the 800th Anniversary of Moscow" was minted for the anniversary. The celebration took place on September 7th. The city was decorated with photographs of the leaders and flags, many lights were lit in the evening, and festive fireworks were fired.

In 1986, B. Yeltsin, who was then the head of the city committee of the CPSU, issued a decree to celebrate the Moscow Day annually in the first days of September. At this time, food fairs were held in the city.

Particularly grandiose was the celebration of the 850th anniversary of Moscow, which took place in 1997 under Luzhkov. The beginning of the holiday was marked by a concert of world opera stars, which took place on Cathedral Square. Then the opening ceremony took place on Tverskaya Square. The next day's program included the Slavianski Bazaar Welcomes Moscow festival and a concert in the Kremlin. The celebration ended with a concert at Luzhniki.
