The world-famous Novosibirsk Akademgorodok traces its history back to 1957. It appeared thanks to the efforts of academicians Mikhail Lavrentyev and Sergei Sobolev. Two years later, life was in full swing in the Novosibirsk Academgorodok: houses, institutes and the Novosibirsk State University.

The Novosibirsk club “Under the Integral” became the place where the only official concert of Alexander Galich in the USSR took place.

The area quickly gained prestigious status. Firstly, the best conditions for scientists were created here, and secondly, the town was located in an excellent location. During the design of the Novosibirsk Academy Town, special attention was paid to preserving the unique nature of this area. No sooner said than done. A large forest area, numerous artificial plantings, proximity to the Ob Sea - all this made Akademgorodok even more attractive for living.

One of the main Russian scientific centers is located 20 km south of the center of Novosibirsk, on the shores of the Ob Sea. Research institutes, the Physics and Mathematics School and the Presidium of the Siberian Branch are located here Russian Academy Sci. Among the attractions are the House of Scientists, the Academy Palace of Culture and the Integral club. True, the modern “Integral” is very different from the iconic Soviet cafe “Under the Integral”. In 1968, the first official bard song festival took place in this cafe. It was a favorite place of poets, artists and performers, a kind of island of freethinking, a symbol of Khrushchev’s thaw. The club constantly hosted interesting meetings and lively discussions.

The first and second floors of the cafe were called “Numerator” and “Denominator”.

“Under the Integral” became the place where the only official concert of Alexander Galich in the USSR took place. After some time, the club closed. 40 years later it was revived, but at a different address. Of course, the current Integral cannot be compared with the Soviet one. Nevertheless, in honor of the opening of the renovated establishment, a large-scale bardic festival was organized. The poet’s daughter, Alena Galich-Arkhangelskaya, attended the concert as a special guest.

Akademgorodok is a district of the city of Krasnoyarsk, which is administratively part of the Oktyabrsky district. Long divided local residents to the Upper and Lower Akademgorodok.

There is also a unique shopping and entertainment center in Akademgorodok. It’s called the Akademgorodok shopping center. Here you can leave the children to jump on the trampoline while the adults go shopping and boutiques inside the shopping center, ride horses, or sit in the summer houses near the fountain. The shopping center building has been preserved since Soviet times, and only now they have begun to restore and modernize it. So there is still time to capture history

The only cinema in the Academy is also located there - the DK Academy. The same old building, which will soon be restored (the restoration project is supposed to be like this: 0)

And finally, another unique feature of Academgorodok, which has already been mentioned in our blog - the Museum of the Sun. The only museum in Russia dedicated to solar topics; and at the time of its opening (1993) it was the only one in the whole world.

Of course, all this does not negate the fact that the main charm of Academy Town is the scientists and the forest. But even if the question “What is interesting to see in Akademgorodok?” asks a person far from science, then what might interest him in the Academy is this unusual combination of civilization and forest - a town immersed in greenery, fresh air, silence, and trees, trees, trees... What do you think?
