The village of Bavlenye (Bogoyavlenskoe also) is located near the Bavlenka river, 13 versts from the district town ().

Map of Mende, Vladimir province. 1850

For the first time it was mentioned in the spiritual charter of the Serpukhov prince Vladimir Andreevich the Brave, written in 1410 (1353-1410, in 1380 on the Kulikovo field, an ambush regiment commanded by him and Bobrok of Volyn, with a timely onslaught on the Tatars, decided the outcome of the battle in favor of the Russians ). He refused the village to his son Semyon (1372-1426), the appanage prince of Borovsk.
At the end of the 16th and during the 17th century. Epiphany was the patrimony of the Moscow Patriarch; with the abolition of the patriarchate, it came under the jurisdiction of the Synodal Order. In the books of the Patriarchal State Order about the village we find the following information: “In 1594, Gen. 7 Job, the Patriarch of Moscow and All Rus' granted his boyar children Semyon and Mikhail Petrov children of Svinsky in the Yuryevsky district of Polsky in the village of Bogoyavlensky for 150 children in the field, and in two for that f 75 times per person”; in the same year, on March 22, Patriarch Job granted “his son, the boyar Ivan Vasilyevich, son of Seleznev, in the village of Bogoyavlenskoye to the 80th quarter in the field...”.
During the Time of Troubles, the village was destroyed; in the patriarchal books of 1645 it was written “in the patrimony of the Holy Patriarch there was a wasteland that was the village of Bogoyavlenskoye, on the river. on Bogoyavlenka,” the village probably turned into a wasteland after the devastation of the city of Yuryev and surrounding villages by the Poles and Lithuanians at the beginning of the 17th century, and there were no inhabitants here for three whole decades.
The wasteland was repopulated only in 1646, in the books of the Patriarchal State Order under this year it is noted: “the village that was the Bogoyavlenskaya wasteland was re-established, and in it there are 8 farmsteads of peasants and peasants, with 14 people in them.”
The name of the village of Bogoyavlensky gives reason to assume that the original church here was founded in honor of the Epiphany of the Lord, and from the above-mentioned spiritual testament of Prince Vladimir Andreevich it is clear that it existed here already at the beginning of the 15th century. Accurate historical evidence about it dates back to the 17th century; in the books of the Patriarchal State Order of 1645-1647. it is shown: “in the wasteland, that there was the village of Bogoyavlenskoye, on the river Bogoyavlenka, a church place that was the Church of the Epiphany of the Lord God and our Savior Jesus Christ, and on the church land there was a priest’s place, a deacon’s place, a Ponomaryovo place, a mallow place, the church’s arable land was overgrown with good forest There are 20 acres of land in the field, and in two of the same, 10 kopecks of hay, and 270 acres of arable fallow land, and 250 acres of forest overgrown with 250 acres of hay, 50 acres of uncultivated forest.” The time of construction of the new church is unknown.
In February 1803, the priest of the Holy Epiphany Church in the village. Bavlenya Ioan Matveev, on behalf of the parishioners, submitted a petition to the Bishop of Vladimir and Suzdal Xenophon to build a stone church in the village instead of a wooden one, which due to ancient times was falling into disrepair, and to issue a collection book to collect the missing funds.
On March 18, 1803, a temple charter was issued, signed by the bishop, and a collection book, according to which collection was allowed for two years.
The village had 65 households and a male population of 230 souls alone. In an unusually short time, the necessary funds were collected and workers were hired.
The stone church was built by the diligence of parishioners in 1810, stone with a stone bell tower. There are two altars in it: in the cold one - the Epiphany of the Lord, in the warm aisle - the Nativity of the Blessed Virgin Mary.
In September 1810, the priest of the Epiphany Church, Mikhail Andreev, the church warden, Yakov Klimov, and all the parishioners submitted a report to Vladyka Xenophon about the readiness of the church for consecration (“A stone church has been built, which is equipped with all church splendor and utensils”). The priest and parishioners ask to consecrate the temple and issue an antimension for worship.
Report from the dean of the Yuryevsky district of the Vladimir diocese, Vasily Eletsky: “According to the letter given by Your Eminence last March 1803, on the 18th of the blessed day, for the construction of my department in the village of Bavlenye, a stone building in the name of the Epiphany of the Church of the Lord, this church building is completed, church utensils and other splendor is properly decorated.” The attached report contains an inventory that states that the altar and the magnificent six-tiered iconostasis are fully painted, that silver liturgical vessels have been prepared for the service, that the liturgical books are kept in full, and that the sacristy has six multi-colored sets for priests and much more.
The consistory determined: “the new church on the issued satin antimension will be consecrated to the above-mentioned dean priest Yeletsky on October, the 9th of this year.”
The clergy at the Epiphany Church was established - a priest and a psalm-reader. For the maintenance of the clergy, he received: benefits from the treasury 392 rubles, from the land 150 rubles, from the collection of grain 10 rubles, and for corrections of demands up to 70 rubles, and in total up to 622 rubles. in year. The clergyman lived in church-public houses built for the clergyman on church land by parishioners in 1895.
The parish consisted of: Bavlenye and the village of Ezhovaya, in 1897 there were 72 households, 219 male showers, 267 female ones. In 1911, only in the village. The bavlenya had 52 households and 329 parishioners.
A parish was assigned to the church in the village of Bavlenya.

In 1898, a parochial school, in which 39 boys and 27 girls studied.
There was a library of church books at the temple.
Priest s. Bavlenya, Yuryevsky district, Pavel Kudryavtsev was dismissed on February 17, 1916, upon request. Deacon s. Arbuzova, Vladimir. u., John of Odoransky on April 26, 1916, was ordained a priest in the village. Bavlenye.
To the church with. Bavlenya was attributed to the parish of. Kalman. This village is of ancient origin; in Soviet times, the Church of the Transfiguration of the Lord was destroyed in it.
“Near the Bavleny station they started shooting at our train, I don’t know for what reasons the train was moving so quietly that it was possible to keep up with it on foot.
Due to the fact that the shooting did not stop, the detachment commander ordered us to line up in a chain, and then three from the right flank were sent to some village to take hostages. It was ordered to announce that if the shooting continued, the hostages could be shot. After some time, the right-flankers returned, and with them the priest deacon and the Chairman of the village council. The hostages were put into the carriage and quietly went to Yuryev, and we followed them in a loose chain. There was an order to detain everyone who came our way, or who was going somewhere; we Komsomol members carried out this mission.
I remember that F.V. Nikonov and P.P. Panfilov were detained, they were returning or rather fled from Yuryev, but they could not provide accurate information about the true state of affairs, but they suggested that the city had been cleared of greens” ().
In 1938, arrests began among clergy, and churches were closed everywhere. The authorities interfered with the normal life of the parish and the Holy Epiphany Church. The last service in the church was held on September 7, 1938. The rector of the church, priest Vasily Vinogradov, was forced to leave ministry in the Bavlensky parish due to the inability of parishioners to pay the huge taxes that were imposed on the church community and clergy. The district authorities forbade the priest to go around the parish with prayer services on Easter days, that is, to perform an ancient custom that provided the clergy with a means of subsistence. Yielding to the demands of indignant believers, prayers were allowed, but in September they were banned again, allegedly due to the possibility of the spread of infectious diseases.

During the war, as persecution eased, churches began to open in some places. In the lists of regional authorities, the church with. Bavlena was not considered closed. In response to numerous appeals from believers, the authorities justified the impossibility of resuming services either by the absence of a priest or by the emergency condition of the temple. On April 15, 1943, a general meeting of residents of the village and surrounding villages elected a body of church self-government - twenty. Mikhail Ivanovich Muratov was elected chairman of the church council. Before the revolution, he was a constable (the lower rank of the county police), and therefore, under Soviet rule, deprived of the right to vote in elections. The parishioners pledged to transfer all church income to the defense fund.
They agreed to perform divine services in their church with a supernumerary priest, Archpriest Konstantin Milovsky, who lived in the village. Berechino. But the authorities resisted the opening of the temple. In January 1944, the district authorities drew up a document signed by the secretary of the executive committee of the Kolchuginsky district council A.A. Abramov, Chairman of the Executive Committee of the Bavlensky Village Council D.I. Sumarev, secretary of the party organization M.V. Klimov, the chairman and members of the twenty (their signatures were probably obtained under pressure), in which the temple, which was practically not ruined and had everything necessary for worship, was called unsuitable for worship.
In 1945, truthful information about the condition of the temple was finally received from the authorities. He was found fit. M.I. Muratov submitted a petition to the Vladimir diocesan administration to open a church and appoint a priest. Documents were attached to the petition, including tax receipts for many years for the inactive temple. In response, the regional Council of Workers' Deputies of the Vladimir Region sent the chairman of the Kolchuginsky executive committee of the district council, Rogov, a resolution: “Please inform Mr. Muratov M.I. that his request was to open a church in the village. Bavlena was rejected.” Believers fought for a long time against the authorities’ decision to convert the temple into a warehouse.
The secretary of the twenty, Valentina Mikhailovna Bulanova, was taken away in a police car for refusing to give up the keys to the temple, simulating an arrest in order to intimidate, but the persistent woman did not give up the keys. But the temple was still destroyed.
In 1990, efforts to open a church in the village of Bavleni were resumed. A.F. put a lot of effort into this. Medvedev. He sent a petition to Bishop Evlogiy of Vladimir and Suzdal, to which he received the answer: “Dear Arkady Fedorovich, God will bless the formation of a new community in the temple of the village of Bavlena and the receipt of the Charter for it, with one wish, not to allow any troubles in the community that are not characteristic of the Orthodox people, and live peacefully, Christianly, saving their souls and benefiting people.” A blessing was received for the formation of a new community in the temple of the village. Bavleni.
January 11, 1991 in the village. A meeting of parishioners was held at Bavlena.

Holy Epiphany Church in the village. Bavleni

The village of Bavleny arose at the railway station on the Alexandrov - Yuryev-Polsky line opened in 1893, 1 km from the village of Bavleny, known since the beginning of the 15th century.
From the second half of the 19th century, an outflow of population from the village to Kolchugino began. Perhaps in the future the village of Bavleny would have disappeared if at the turn of the 19th - 20th centuries, through the efforts of Ivanovo manufacturers, the Alexandrov-Kineshma railway line with the Bavleny station had not been laid. A station with residential buildings for railway workers was built here.
The crisis that broke out in the country in 1927-1928 could not but affect the lives of peasants in Bavleni. Bread was forcibly taken from wealthy peasants, and market trade in grain was limited. Representatives of the authorities, feeling themselves to be full owners, unceremoniously invaded houses, checking haylofts, sheds, and underground areas. They even took away grain intended for sowing and everything that caught their eye: honey, eggs.
Who could endure such arbitrariness? After all, everything was obtained through our own labor and the sweat of our brow. Peasants who resisted were beaten. How many tears were shed! It is impossible to count the number of people maimed and killed.
Any situation that arises has its reasons. There were disagreements in the Bolshevik Party regarding the emergence of the crisis.
Group N.I. Bukharin, which included A.I. Rykov, explained the crisis by miscalculations of the party and state leadership.
The Stalinist group, which included V.V. Kuibyshev, K.E. Voroshilov and G.K. Ordzhonikidze, found the cause of the crisis in accelerated industrialization in the absence of external sources of financing. As a result, Stalin's point of view was supported, and his program for overcoming the crisis was adopted, one of the ways of which was collectivization.
Even at that time, dissent was not tolerated and persecuted. The group of the leader of the Comintern, the editor of the newspaper Pravda, Bukharin, was removed from the Politburo, and the Chairman of the Council of People's Commissars, Rykov, was convicted and shot.
Not everything went well in the Stalinist group. Sergo Ordzhonikidze later shot himself, having admitted to Anastas Ivanovich Mikoyan the day before that he could not live like this any longer: it was impossible to fight Stalin, and he no longer had the strength to endure what he was doing.
Party-state power was imposed in the country. Party dictatorship was introduced in production and party cells were created on collective farms, state farms, and MTS.
In 1929, construction of the central estate of the Aleksandrovsky grain state farm and a machine and tractor workshop began near Bavleny station. Near the Bavleny station, axes began to clatter, centuries-old spruce and pine trees were being cut down for the construction of the central estate of the large Aleksandrovsky grain state farm. He was given tractors, plows, and seeders to help other collective farms.

Bavlenskaya school

The school in Bavleni opened in 1933; it was transferred here from the village of Bavleni. Two years later she became seven years old. The school was located in a wooden one-story building. In winter, they burned with firewood, which the schoolchildren themselves prepared during labor lessons. It is commendable that the children were accustomed to feasible useful work and knew its value. Unfortunately, at that time there was a constant shortage of notebooks, pencils, ink, pens, and chalk. In their free time from school, children attended various clubs, children's matinees, and amateur performance evenings.
In 1938-1939, the first graduations of the seven-year plan took place. Many graduates of these years died at the front.
Among the school graduates was Pavel Rachkov. He was born into a large family and was the eldest of the children. Distinguished by his modesty and diligence, Pavel graduated from school with a diploma of commendation. After graduating from the Kolchuginsky Aero Club, he entered the Chkalov Military School. Pavel began his combat career as a military pilot in 1943 in Ukraine. In a short time he went from an ordinary pilot to a squadron commander. He has 123 combat missions. Three times the attack aircraft was knocked out, once it burned, but reached its own. In 1943, an airplane mechanic told him the bitter news about the execution of his family by the Nazis and asked Pavel to take revenge for such cruelty. He gave his word and kept it. 12 ILs under his command bombed an enemy airfield and burned 13 enemy aircraft. In that battle, his IL was surrounded by four Messers. He managed to shoot down two planes. For completing this task, Pavel Akimovich was awarded the title of Hero of the Soviet Union. He was awarded the Order of Lenin, three Orders of the Red Banner, Orders of the Great Patriotic War of the 1st and 2nd degrees, and medals. After the war P.A. Rachkov continued to serve in the Air Force. He died in 1947 and was buried in Tallinn, where he lived and worked in the post-war years. The pioneer squad of one of the schools in Tallinn bore his name. In the village, a school and a central street are named after him. His portrait was placed on the Alley of Heroes in Kolchugino.
Since 1952, the school became a secondary school, and two years later a new one was opened with a boarding school for children from remote villages.
With the reform of public education in the 50s, the school was classified as “agricultural” and children began to be taught peasant labor. The senior classes were assigned a seven-hectare plot of land where the children grew vegetables. There were also poultry farming and construction units. A student construction crew worked at the school. She erected a fence, a shed, built a storage room for educational equipment, built a garage, and landscaped the sports ground. The lessons were purposeful and the children saw the results of their work.
Schoolchildren were fond of various sports. In the fall of 1981, the Bavlensk school team was first in the district table tennis championship. Ten years later women's basketball team became the winner of regional competitions. The Vladimir team of ecologists, which included representatives of the Bavlensk school, also took first place at a gathering of young ecologists in the village of Khosty, Krasnodar Territory.
In the winter of 1985, following the example of the participants in the polar expedition of the Komsomolskaya Pravda newspaper, Bavlensk schoolchildren organized a 60 km long night marathon. at a temperature of minus 20 degrees.
On the initiative of the school director O.T. Kupriyanov, as part of the career guidance program, was created in the same year student machine-building plant "Smena". Its director and chief accountant were two ninth-graders. Students were given a production plan that they had to fulfill. Under the leadership of the director of the enterprise, joint meetings were held between the heads of the workshops where the students worked, plant specialists, foremen and treasurers of student teams, and the school administration. The director of the student plant reported on the implementation of the plan at monthly dispatch meetings and discussed production issues.
This is how the school and factory administration approached their work creatively. Future plant worker Mikhail Petrov recalls:
- That was great! For the first time then we felt involved in a large production. We've been waiting for these two hours on Fridays all week! It was great to disconnect from the school routine and feel like an adult working, especially since our products were used in factory products: we made a bushing for the “Malysh” pump. A report about the school plant was filmed by regional television.
Children become more serious and responsible when they see adults treating them like this. A professional skills competition at the end of the year showed that schoolchildren working as turners and wrappers achieved labor productivity close to the level of basic work.
The Bavlensk school was ahead when they began to educate six-year-olds, and was the first when classes for special education of children were opened. Among the school's graduates there are many medalists and excellent students. About 60% of students enter the country's universities.
For 34 years, Nikolai Sergeevich Savchenko was the school director. He was very loved and respected. It was surprisingly easy to work with him.
