In some city districts, the atmosphere of the 19th century has been preserved to this day with the old wooden houses of the emigrants. You will visit Maria Volkonskaya's house-museum. Sometimes Maria is called Princess Siberia. She was the wife of a Decembrist revolutionary who voluntarily accompanied her husband into exile.
