Drop-in Tour of the Exhibition ‘The Cultural Code of Kazan: Spiritual Heritage and Traditions’

Discover the thousand‑year history of Tatarstan! We will begin our journey with the adoption of Islam by Volga Bulgaria more than 1,100 years ago. You will discover how, thanks to its advantageous geographical position, Tatarstan became a key trading hub between East and West, and how the establishment of the Kazan Khanate secured its status as a cultural centre. This period shaped the unique character of the region, laying the foundations for its multi-ethnic nature and its wealth of traditions, which exist in harmony with one another.
