I have already written about the Kazan Kremlin many times - I love it very much. And I love looking at him, even from the bus window - he’s so beautiful. And I love walking there. The Kremlin has several interesting museums. I wrote about it a long time ago, it’s a wonderful museum. We were there twice, the young ladies liked it. And again, we visited the Natural History Museum of Tatarstan twice. It would seem that there could be interesting things there? I immediately remember boring natural history lessons, minerals and different climatic conditions. But no! In 2011, Ruhama liked this museum so much that when she arrived in Kazan a year later, she had only one order for a cultural program: to the Natural History Museum. The museum was created in 2005. It is very modern, the kind of museum that is friendly to visitors, especially children. We can say that it is directly created for children. There you can touch exhibits, press buttons (and then all sorts of brontosaurs begin to squeal or sparkle), there are a lot of layouts, screens, videos and interactive activities. And on top of everything, the caretakers there are somehow surprisingly chosen: you get the feeling in every room that they were specially sitting there and waiting for you, and now you’ve finally arrived! The museum has two floors and 12 halls. The beauty begins right in the lobby, where the cash registers are. There is a panel made of wood depicting the geological chronicle of the Republic of Tatarstan Text from the panel's explanation: “Geologists often find fossilized shells, animal bones, leaf imprints, and pieces of wood in pieces of rock. Such finds help read the chronicle geological history Earth. Thanks to them, we learn that many thousands of years ago, in place of mountains there was a sea, and in place of modest birch trees and coniferous forests, subtropical plants grew." The first hall is "Earth and the Universe". There are so many interesting things there that at some point I had to remind Ruhama that this is just the first hall, and there is a whole museum ahead! In the center of the hall there is a telescope where you can look - different constellations and celestial bodies are visible there next to it is "layout" solar system. Very visual: there are giants here and crumbs like our Earth and Mars next to it is a screen with interesting information the opposite corner of the hall is an interactive map and space scales. Cosmic scales - very interesting thing! Gotta step on the scale choose the planet on which you want to weigh yourself For example, on the Sun Ruhama weighs this much: We hung at the interactive map for a long time - and I was still surprised at how interested Ruhama was reading the information on the screens. First we need to select on the map the region of Tatarstan about which we want to receive information. We chose the Arsky district because a couple of days before we went there to the Gabdulla Tukai Museum. well, go ahead. Administrative information demographic Very nice photo holiday! Agriculture industry education culture The next halls are “The Beginning of the Path” and “The World of Ancient Life” most of the surface Globe occupied a body of water - its inhabitants can be observed in portholes skillfully built into the floor and even chat with some! The "Black Gold of the Planet" hall is dedicated to oil, but here is the "Subsoil Pantry" hall, where we learned about the mineral resources of Tatarstan There are many mock-up corners in this room, which we looked at with interest. Here, for example, is a model of the mine - we went to it first, we are practically Urals :)) on the left is the decree of Peter I on the search for gold, silver, copper and other ores in the Moscow state mine workers map of mineral resources of Tatarstan minerals are presented in all their diversity Hall "Kingdom of Fishes and Amphibians". Tells about the period when fish came onto land, learned to breathe, and four-legged animals appeared. Ruhama is here for scale next to the huge ancient fish coelacanth Beeline tells us about coelacanth (this is a large Russian cellular operator and Internet provider) but the fish come to land The next room is called “Kazan Sea” and talks about the Permian period on the territory of Tatarstan marvelous wooden panel on the floor - map of the Kazan Sea this is our Kazan and the Ural Mountains Notice how rich the display is on the walls. Thematic painting or layouts. For example, a life-size dragonfly, it was some kind of huge, a meter long The next room is “The Age of Beast-like Lizards” with these same lizards there is a container with sand where you can dig up some dinosaur painting on the walls and the "Marine Reptiles" hall who walk and make sounds In the "Dinosaur Time" hall, everyone takes pictures with a dinosaur skeleton, and also puts together a dinosaur puzzle on a special magnetic board. and the “Hall of Mammals”, where Ruhama, at the suggestion of a very nice girl-keeper, took a souvenir photo with a herbivorous ancient bear I already wrote, but once again: the friendliness of the caretakers in this museum is off the charts. In each hall, the caretaker comes up to you and begins to tell you about the hall himself, without any special requests. He takes the child and says, “Let’s come here and look at this!” He asks the child if he pressed all the buttons and played all the games in this room. They encourage parents to follow the schedule of events and come to the museum again. In almost all the halls, the caretakers and I started talking about simple life, outside the museum. In the hall of mammals they mentioned that we are from Israel, so they joyfully told us, “Shalom to you in that case, we love Israel so much and have been there so many times!” :)))

Kazan to last years has become one of the most attractive tourist centers in Tatarstan. Everything about it is interesting, including many museums. It is very convenient that many of them are concentrated in the city center. So no travel time is wasted on viewing them. There are many museums either next to or in the Kremlin itself. Moreover, entrance to the Kremlin is free, and only in each individual museum is it paid for.
Museum
One of these unusual and most interesting museums, which won the love of adults and children, is the Museum of Natural History of Tatarstan. The address at which it is located coincides with the National art gallery"Khazine." This is: Kazan, st. Kremlevskaya, house 2. These museums are located in the premises of the former cadet school, which is located along the street that runs inside the Kremlin from the Spasskaya Tower to Tainitskaya.
Museum building
The school was founded in one thousand eight hundred and sixty-six. The author of the project is architect Pyatnitsky. At first, barracks for cantonists were located in the building, and twenty years later a military school was opened here, which then became a cadet school. The facade of the house is built in the Pavlovian Empire style. It has three entrances with forged awnings. When making them, they chose the Chebaksin forging technique. Roses, cornflowers and mascarons are woven into the forging pattern. The staircases here are three-flight and rest on arches and vaults made of brick. Before the revolution, the building had only two floors, and only in Soviet period the third floor was completed. In the mid-nineties, restoration of the building began, which was successfully completed by the early 2000s.
Now there are several museums located here. In addition to the Khazine National Gallery and the Natural History Museum, several halls are occupied by a memorial museum dedicated to the Great Patriotic War and a branch of the St. Petersburg “Hermitage” - the exhibition hall “Hermitage-Kazan”.
Description
The Museum of Tatarstan occupies two floors, on which more than one and a half thousand exhibits are presented. They decided to open it in two thousand and five. The purpose of the opening is to preserve the nature of the republic.
It is better to start visiting the museum from the first floor to see the entire period of the birth of the planets, the earth and its inhabitants. All the exhibits are very interesting, and you won’t want to miss any of them.
This floor will be more interesting for those who really love to study everything that is in the depths of our planet and beyond, that is, astronomy and geology. This is the general structure that the Tatarstan Natural History Museum has. A description of each exhibition will introduce tourists closer to the history of the republic and awaken a desire to visit this wonderful historical place. The museum was created on the instructions of the Cabinet of Ministers of the Republic. The project was supported and the first President of Tatarstan Mintimer Sharipovich Shaimiev became a trustee of the construction
The exhibitions at the Museum of Natural History of Tatarstan are based on rare scientific finds from the collection of the Geological Museum named after. A.A. Shtukenberg at Kazan State University. Here visitors can visit different rooms.
Halls of space
Using interactive programs, they will introduce astronomy lovers to the basics of this wonderful science. Interactive programs will create an atmosphere of immersion in the history of space objects. Visitors are treated like real space travelers to the world of space. The stars have attracted representatives of the human race for many centuries.
This interest is supported by the museum staff. Here you can also observe the stars with a real telescope and check how much a visitor would weigh on other planets. For this purpose, the museum has installed special space scales. Also here, visitors will be shown real meteorites that once fell on the territory of Tatarstan. The exhibitions located here will tell you about the structure of the earth's crust and the huge variety of minerals on our planet. An amazing interactive cross-section of the planet, in which the winners see what layers our Earth consists of.
This exhibition should popularize knowledge about how diverse the world of minerals on the planet is.
"Black Gold of the Planet" is a series of exhibits that introduce visitors to oil layers, a bitumen lake and mud volcanoes.
No less interesting is the hall in the form of a malachite box, which tells visitors about various minerals. This room is called the “Subsoil Pantry”.
Halls for animal lovers
What else is good about the Natural History Museum of Tatarstan? Here you are allowed to take photos of both some of the exhibits and yourself against their background. This distinguishes this museum from all others; where there are paintings, photographs cannot be taken. The second floor gradually takes visitors into the animal world.
The paleontological exhibition, housed in six halls, is also very interesting. The Vendian Sea diorama shows the period of the era when multicellular organisms arose on the planet. This happened six hundred million years ago.
The “Beginning of the Journey” hall introduces visitors to the inhabitants of the seas of that period. Particularly fascinating are the exhibits of preserved skeletons of amphibians that lived in the ancient seas. With the help of interactive programs, any visitor can observe the gradual transition of amphibians to land. Such expositions as “The Kingdom of Fishes and Amphibians”, “The Kazan Sea”, “Marine Reptiles”, “The World of Mammals” and others will be of interest to all lovers of the animal world.
Children are especially delighted with the skeletons of Titanophoneus, Pareiosaurus and marine reptiles. The interactive program even allows you to feed them. The hologram on the entire wall, along which people walk, is mesmerizing saber tooth tigers and mammoths. Visitors get the full experience among huge prehistoric animals that you can even pet.
