Kursk Korenskaya Market
Курская Коренская ярмарка
The Kursk Korenskaya Fair (Kursk Root Fair) was revived in 2001, which traditionally coincided in time with the Religious procession of the Kursk Root Icon to the monastery from Znamensky Cathedral in Kursk. It lasts several days and ends with a concert/performance. For tourists, the fair is interesting for shows and master classes, the opportunity to try local dishes, as well as to shop for handicrafts. The central part of the fair takes place in the Main Exhibition Pavilion near the monastery. The fair's guesthouse was designed by the famous architect Giacomo Quarenghi. The remaining pavilions are on the central streets of Svoboda. The upcoming fair will be held June 18-21, 2020.
