Sergius Lavra by Polish and Lithuanian troops. The underground passage dug by the enemies under the Pyatnitskaya Tower, was heroically destroyed by the Klementyev peasants Nikon Shilov and Peter Slota, who burht right there in the passage.."

According to legend, the underground  passage, which led the Hetman Jan Sapega`s  and goverhor Alexander Lisovsky`s troops to  besieged Lavra and was blown up by heroes peasants, started just in the place where our restaurant is now located.

But the history of this place began much earlier. As early as the  ku- kui centuries. The sluzuhiasloboda was  constructed on these lands and inhabited by a special category – "monastic servants". Airing peacetime, the monastic servants were engaged in general labor  activities and managed the lavra estates. patrimony. Auring the war they defended the Lavra or joined the tzar army as a special unit.

History: part 2

In 1764, Empress Catherine II issued a Manifesto about  land and serfsuptake from the monastic property to the state treasury. (By this time  the churches in Russia had in their  possession more than hine million hectares of land and more than nine hundred thousand male peasant). After the Manifesto issuing  almost all the monastic  servants, as people who were educated and experienced in administration  affairs and clerical service, became government officials and left the Troitsky slobods. The emptied out Sloboda was taken over by citizens of Sergiev Posad,  that was founded in 1782.

At that time there were buildings belonging to the bourgeois Vereshchagin and the Moscow merchant Petrov there. According to the plan redevelopment , a priest and a sexton of the Pyatnitskaya Church were to move into their houses. To do this, they had to pay the owners a ransom for their real estate in  august 1797. The Posad towh hall commission  estimated Vereshchagin's real estate in  600 rubles, and the merchant Petrov's real estate in 250 rubles. The priest and the sexton agreed with the amounts estimated, but stated that theydidn’t  nave the required sums and promised to try to find people  who would agree to lend them money.

By the end of the XIX century, the building where youin which you are now was resoldagain  to secular people, and eventually rebuilt into an apartment house  a tavern with the rooms relohging to the merchant Andrey Sergeevich Konkov found accommodations there. The cost of construction was then estimated at 2500 rubles at the rate of 1885.

In 1946, the dining room was transformed into a restaurant and was given the name "Volga". This name was due to the fact that at that time the general directorate of the Volga Electric Construction was located in Zagorsk ( this way our citi was renamed after the revolution in honor of Bolshevik V.M.Zagorsky). The organization was engaged  in laying hign voltage power transmission lines from Kuibyshev to Moscow. The employees of the department visited the restaurant eagerly drank a lot of alcohol and often kicked up rows.
