Picket in defense of cultural heritage monuments held in Novosibirsk
BFM-Novosibirsk writes that the location for this operation was chosen at the entrance to the Sibselmash plant, which is unusual for such an event, which usually takes place in the city center.
The city administration did not approve any central location and allowed the gathering only in the industrial zone on Stantsionnaya Street.
According to Natalia Shamina, president of the Novosibirsk regional branch of the All-Russian Society for the Protection of Historical and Cultural Monuments, the city's historical and cultural heritage is at risk of being destroyed. She noted that monuments are being destroyed in various ways. Many monuments are not being restored, some are being demolished, and their protected status is being revoked. Shamina emphasized that the problems of miscarriages have still not been resolved and many of them have worsened. She also pointed to the manipulation of events in the city center by the authorities in order to reduce their scale and resonance.
The resolution of the picket listed monuments that require urgent measures for preservation. The list included both well-known structures, such as the Officers' House, and lesser-known structures, such as the National Assembly Chamber. Turkin. The demands to the authorities were also outlined, including the need to preserve places of military glory and labor valor, to carry out conservation work on the buildings of the Altai Railway, and to recognize Akademgorodok as landscape architecture.
