KNOWLEDGE OF Dzerzhinsk
Dzyarzhynsk or Dzerzhinsk (Belarusian: ДзÑ?ржыÌ?нÑ?к, Dziaržynsk, Russian: ДзержинÑ?к), in the Stoubcy district of Belarus, is a city with an ancient history.
The city was once the capital of the short-lived Dzierzynszczyzna Polish Autonomous District.
The highest point of Belarus, Dziaržynskaja Hara, is several kilometers from Dziaržynsk.
It was known as Kojdanava townlet of Wilno guberniya of the Russian Empire. In May, 1932 it was granted the status of city and renamed KojdanaÅ. In June of that year it was renamed again as Dziaržynsk.
Felix Dzerzhinsky was born in Dziaržynava estate not far from the city, and that was one of the reasons the Communist authorities renamed the city, calling it Dziaržynsk.
Nowadays in Belarus, the name Kojdanava (Belarusian: Койданава) is becoming popular again, but the official name remains unchanged, as Dzerzhinsky, the founder of Cheka, is still considered a national hero in Belarus.
