An excursion to historical places

The Almaty Museum was founded in 2002, in the building of the former Vernensky orphanage.

The entire history of Almaty is kept in 11 halls: “Ancient history of Almaty”, “Medieval history of Almaty”, “At the origins of Kazakh statehood”, “Vernensky period of the history of Almaty” and “Almaty in the twentieth century”.

On August 13, 1877, an order was signed by the military governor of the Semirechensk region, Gerasim Kolpakovsky, on the introduction of a city regulation in the city.

According to this provision, the first head of the city, Pavel Matveyevich Zenkov, was appointed in Verny.

The city was not built up chaotically. The created committee clearly spelled out the rules for the arrangement of the Faithful. At first, the city was divided into blocks of three categories — expensive plots were higher up to the mountains, cheaper ones were lower. After marking up the plots, they were drawn using the lottery method: first, the number of the plot was drawn, and only then it could be bought at auction. The money raised from the auction was sent to the city treasury.

The streets of the city were strictly marked, the direction of the main streets went from north to south. They were prescribed a certain width, a place for sidewalks and even the number of roadside trees with intervals between them.

This was chosen in the city in order to make the streets better blown by the wind, as well as to use irrigation ditches.

In the most prestigious area of the city, houses were required to be built of stone, at least two floors high, with at least seven windows. This was done because the city was planned to be built in the St. Petersburg style.

In less expensive areas, it was allowed to build single-storey houses with five windows, but the facades of the buildings were also approved by the local authorities during meetings attended by the regional architect.

Museum of Archaeology

The Museum of Archaeology is a cultural division of the Academy of Sciences of Kazakhstan. The museum is located in the scientific museum complex “Gylym Ordasy”. It is the only one of its kind in the territory of the Republic of Kazakhstan.

The museum owes its foundation to several generations of archaeologists and scientists of Kazakhstan, who have been searching, studying and preserving unique materials since the 20s of the last century. The Archaeological Museum in Almaty was opened in 1973 on the basis of a collection telling about ancient and medieval life in the lands of Kazakhstan.

One of the most interesting exhibits is the “Golden Man” and the “Berel Horse”. The remains of a Saka warrior in golden robes were found in one of the chambers of the tomb. In total, more than 4 thousand gold leaf ornaments were sewn on the warrior’s clothes. Gold weapons, rings, and ceramics were also found in the chamber. The find dates back to the VI–V centuries BC.

The Berel Horse is a unique exhibit from the Berel mounds in the east of Kazakhstan. 7 stallions of fiery color were also found in the burial of the local queen. One of them wore a leather mask on his face, which was decorated with plates of gold in the form of mythological animals. Horse remains were also found in other Berel mounds.
