No visit to Omsk is complete without a trip to the spectacular Assumption Cathedral, considered to be one of Russia’s most curious buildings. The turquoise and gold spheres of its five-domed edifice shine especially bright against an urban backdrop, and the building is a sight of spectacular architectural beauty. Demolished in the Soviet Era, the cathedral was rebuilt after the collapse of the USSR to maintain its prestigious reputation as an iconic monument within the city.
Built in the early 20th century, Omsk’s drama theatre is the 4th oldest theater in Russia and one of the most attractive buildings in the city. A beautifully-ornate exterior is matched with breathtaking interiors, featuring intricate designs and lavish finishes throughout. It’s a cultural centerpiece that crowns the district, reflecting the distinctive Russian heritage prominent in this region.
Lyubinsky Avenue is an awe-inspiring ensemble of impressive architecture and styles. An eclectic mix of historic buildings line the street, including merchant salons, residences, commercial buildings and two distinctive chapels, dating back to the late 1800’s. The styles on this symbolic road are dominated by Neoclassical and Art-Nouveau builds, with a collection of rustic wooden houses that date back to the first merchants who settled in Omsk.
A trip to Omsk Fortress takes visitors on a journey back in time to the historic origins of the city. Close to the confluence of the Om and Irtysh rivers, some of the first buildings of the 18th-century fortress stand proud against an ever-developing backdrop. The Omsk Fortress remains the historical heart of the city, where a melange of architectural styles is a visual reminder of inhabitants from eras gone by.
Boasting an extensive art collection of over 25,000 items, the Omsk Museum of Fine Art is without a doubt the largest in Siberia and the Far East. Its displays include items of great global significance and rare arts from impressionable Russian, European and Asian artists. Remarkable creations from the famous Carl Faberge can be found here as well as impressive Russian masterpieces from the XVIII to the early XX century.
