A bit of history
Although the first settlements in these places appeared long before our era - as evidenced by numerous archaeological riches and, most importantly, the largest mounds in the region in which many valuable artifacts were found - the town of Pavlovsky Posad appeared on the map of the Moscow province only in the summer of 1844 . At that time, by order of Emperor Nicholas I, four nearby villages, the largest of which was Vohna - an old patrimony of Prince Dmitry Donskoy, united in one administrative-territorial unit . This was to significantly contribute to the development of textile crafts and trade here .
