Orenburg, whose webcams can be viewed online on this site, can tell a lot about the history of Russia.
After all, in the past it was a powerful outpost created to protect the southern borders of the Empire, as well as an exemplary fortress in the Urals (river). And today it is the most important center of gas production, which, in addition to its developed industry, has amazing nature.
By historical standards, Orenburg is a fairly young settlement. Nevertheless, its almost three-century history is clearly reflected in the magnificent old buildings, and also settled within the walls of numerous museums.
In the central part of Orenburg, amazing examples of ancient architecture of the 19th-20th centuries have been preserved. They are made in different styles, but united by the spirit of a bygone era. The most colorful examples can be found on the streets of Kirov, Pushkinskaya, Kobozev and many others, including the most popular tourist artery - Sovetskaya.
The building of the City Administration, where the headquarters of the Mutual Insurance Society was once located, has a stunning architectural appearance.
The building is made in an eclectic style, with interesting stucco elements, beautiful figures of Atlanteans, each of which is engaged in its own craft.
Of interest is the former tenement house of Troshin, which today serves as the House of Officers. It was built in the Rational Modern style, with a beautiful corner tower and unique decor.
Another merchant's mansion, which once belonged to the local wealthy citizen Yenikutsev, today is the Governor's Museum of Local History. This is a magnificent example of Russian classicism, which appeared on a city street in the middle of the century before last.
The famous Clock Tower also looks very unusual. It was built already in the 21st century, but harmoniously fits into the old urban development. It has an amazing clockwork. And at exactly 12:00 and 17:00, immortalized personalities associated with Orenburg appear from small doors under the dial - Pushkin, Gagarin, a down-fur coat maker and a gas worker. The action is accompanied by the melodious chime of numerous bells installed under a bright green roof with a high spire.
Among other interesting architectural monuments of Orenburg, it is worth noting the building of Gostiny Dvor, whose length reaches 200 meters, Volkov's city estate in an authentic Art Nouveau style, the Museum of History, which used to house the city treasury and the guardhouse.
It is also worth seeing the Caravanserai and the steppe Tseikhgauz towering over Parkovy Prospekt.
