Talmenka

                                    WELCOME TO TALMENKA

 Welcome to Talmenka, to the most splendid countryside in the world! It is so magnificent and beautiful!

  Come here and you won’t want to live in another settlement or in a town.  The countryside round Talmenka is green with fertile fields and rich vegetations.  Talmenka is nice in any season. Green willows, white bird-cherry trees and snowball-trees, pine-trees and birches grow on the banks of the Chumysh, which is lovely for swimming and fishing. Come to Talmenka and you will have a nice time!

    Our settlement was founded in 1721. The first settlers were impressed by the beauty of our land. They liked pine forests, different animals and deep river named the Chumysh. Since that time Talmenka has changed greatly, but the houses in its historical section  still preserve their charm and beauty and make our place cosy.

       One of special sights is the house of a merchant, Bubnov by name, built  at the end of the 19th century. Many years ago Bubnov sailed here and landed on the bank of the  talmenka river. He liked the place and his workers built a two-storeyed building. Carpenters decorated the house with beautiful carved decorations above the windows. After the revolution this house  was a school and now it is a historical monument.

   You can learn about the history of our district in our local museum. the history of our district is variously presented. The exhibits  of  the halls represent the period of the Civil war and the period of the Great Patriotic War. You can see a hall of ethnography and archeology. You can study the history of our country, going along the halls of the museum.

If  you want to see an unknown  piece of Russia, then Talmenka –is the best place for it!
