This is the hometown of a Russian writer, playwright and doctor Anton Čechov. In 1873 he discovered the theater, interested in the taste of a fiction, which was also a reality for him.

In 1885 he was invited to Petersburg, where he was accepted with honors reserved to famous writers.

The cherry orchard was his last theatrical play and was represented on January 17, 1904 at the Moscow Art Theater, just six months before his death.
