Metro Pechatniki: general information
This station, as already noted earlier,located in the eponymous Pechatniki district, on the territory of the so-called South-Eastern Administrative District. It is interesting that in the nineteen years of its existence, it has never changed its name. Currently, it is the shallowest of all underground stops of the Moscow metro. The passenger traffic of the station until recently was just over 25 thousand people.
History of station name
As has been repeatedly noted, the metro"Pechatniki" (Moscow) owes its name to the homonymous district, in whose territory it, in fact, is located. In turn, the history of the latter is closely intertwined with the history of the Nikolo-Perervinsky Monastery, which was founded in 1380-1381. Today in official documents you can find two variants of the name of this area - Pechatnikovo and Pechatniki. According to the first version, the name of the district came from the name of a certain Vladimir Pechatnikov, a serviceman killed in the Livonian campaign. Mention of it occurs in the annals of 1558. According to another version, in the eighteenth century in the village, which was located exactly in this very place, a large number of cloths were painted. To accelerate the process, residents used a special wooden form with a previously cut relief pattern, which was then painted with different colors. Covering the calico with colorful colored patterns, the masters seem to have "printed". Subsequently, the whole area began to be called Pechatniki. As you can see, the versions are very different, but the essence of this does not change.
