About

The interactive tour turns a museum visit into a real adventure. Participants will not only learn how people lived in the ancient city but also try their hand at being archaeologists. They will find fragments of pottery, solve puzzles of the past, and take home a piece of history. What if a museum could be not just a place of contemplation but a real expedition into the past? This tour is designed for such discoveries. It takes place within the walls of the Nikolskaya Tower, where the exhibition "City at the Mouth of the Oka" is located. Here, guests will not only learn how Nizhny Novgorod looked centuries ago but also literally touch artifacts - traces of the lives of previous generations. The program is aimed at curious children and adults, especially families. The focus is on archaeology, but not in a theoretical way. Guests will get acquainted with the culture and everyday life of medieval Nizhny Novgorod residents, learn how excavations are conducted, what archaeologists find, and why even a small fragment of pottery can tell a whole story. A special part of the tour is participation in improvised excavations. Participants with real archaeological tools will search for hidden fragments of antiquities, and the found artifacts will become real souvenirs. This is not only educational but also very engaging - especially for children, who can feel like explorers uncovering the secrets of the earth. The final chord of the program is a master class on creating a model of the cultural layer. Everyone will be able to practically understand how historical layers of the earth are structured and even craft their own miniature. This will help reinforce knowledge and provide a sense of connection to real science. This format allows history to be perceived not as a set of dates but as a living fabric of events. It engages, surprises, and inspires. A great way to spend time productively, broaden horizons, and view the past through the lens of personal experience. Where to go with children in Nizhny Novgorod can be found on KudaGo.
