The non-trivial history of the city
First of all, I will tell you about the salt industry — you will learn how Totma became the city of the first engineers of the salt industry. Let's talk about the extensive and rich foreign relations for which she has been famous since ancient times. And also about a little—known page of Russian history - the role of the city in the discovery and development of Russian America. In addition, you will find out why Totma was called the city of toy makers and the Russian Nuremberg, and why it was she who was honored to depict the Aleutian black fox on her coat of arms.
The ancient appearance of Totma
The city has miraculously preserved the charm of a bygone era and a charming soul. You will appreciate the beauty of Totem Baroque temples, find out what cartouches are and why they made Totma famous all over the world. And walking among the merchant houses, you will see the appearance of the ancient Totma created by the generosity of patrons and benefactors.
Special atmosphere and special people
I will tell you which famous personalities the city inspired to create poems, paintings and musical works. Modern Totma still attracts strong people — you will find out why the Fyodor Konyukhov School of Travelers was recently opened here. And we will pay special attention to the miracle workers for whom our city is famous — you will hear about Andrei and Maxim Totemsky, Vassian Tiksnensky and Theodosius Sumorin, who founded the Spaso-Sumor monastery.
