The favorable combination of maritime climate of the steppe, the warm sea, the wide sandy beaches, curative mud, estuaries and many sanatoriums – all of Berdyansk is the ideal place for rest and sanitation.
The history of the city began in 1827, when, by order of the governor of the southern lands, Count Vorontsov, began construction of a dock at the edge of Berdyanski Gulf. In his view, this site best suited to the construction of the necessary port to the Russian Empire in the export of wheat. Simultaneously with the dock in the bay, it became a small village, which has laid the foundation stone of the future city.
The port is actively developed and evolved quickly in commercial and industrial center. Berdyansk has received the greatest development in the late nineteenth century, when Peter Schmidt, who was the leader of the city and harbor, the father of the legendary maritime officer who presided over the 1905 uprising of the sailors on the cruiser “Ochakov”. He did a lot for the planning and development of Berdyansk. Today cetral city park, where he was the initiator of the creation, bears his name.
