Legends of the Oryol woodland Oryol woodland is the land of legends. One of them claims that the defender of the Russian land, Ilya Muromets, visited the Oryol region and fought with Nightingale - a robber in the village of Nine Oaks, located on the territory of Polesie. The church chronicle says that in ancient times there were impenetrable swamps on the site of the village, and in the thickest part of the forest there were nine oak trees that grew from one stump. They grew so closely intertwined that they represented a convenient place for hiding the Nightingale - a robber and his gang, who robbed and killed travelers, and even attacked the Odrinsky monastery several times, consigning it to fire and ruin.
"Polesie is a long strip of land all covered with forest, which begins on the border of the Bolkhov and Zhizdrinsky districts, stretches through the Kaluga, Tula and Moscow provinces." I.S. Turgenev "Oryol Polesye" is inextricably linked with the name of the great Russian writer Ivan Sergeevich Turgenev. The characters of his wonderful "Hunter's Notes" lived here. It was here, in communication with Russian nature, that he drew his creative powers. "Oryol Polesie" is inextricably linked with the name of the great Russian writer Ivan Sergeevich Turgenev.
