History
eeditAfore the arrival o East Slavs, the region wis inhabitit bi the Finno-Ugric fowks o Merya. Gorokhovets wis first mentioned in a 1239 chronicle, whan it wis sacked bi the Mongols. It is believit that a minor fortress haed existit thaare for several precedin decades.
In 1539, the Tatars o Kazan wur aboot tae burn it but retreatit upon seein a ghost in a shape o a gigantic knicht wi a swuird. Efter that, the munt whaur the apparition wis seen came tae be kent as Puzhalovo ("frichtenin ane").
The gowden age o Gorokhovets is associatit wi the 17t century, whan it wis a merchandise centre for a lairge aurie, which comprised the day's Vladimir an Ivanovo regions. A nummer o kirks, monasteries, an chambers wur commissioned bi the local merchants at that time. The 17t-century belfries o Gorokhovets are prticularly notewirthy.
Accordin tae the Soviet TV series Seventeen Moments of Spring, Gorokhovets wis a native toun o Stierlitz, a fictional Soviet spy in Nazi Germany, played bi Vyacheslav Tikhonov.
