Farmers' Palace

Agricultural Palace, Igenchelar Saraye, Ministry of Agriculture and Food
russia, Kazan
The Palace of Farmers in Kazan is an administrative complex of the Ministry of Agriculture and Food of the Republic of Tatarstan with its subordinate organizations. The building was built in 2010 near the embankment of the river. Kazanka, near the Kazan Kremlin. The author of the technically complex building project is the architect Leonid Grigoryevich Gornik, who used unique computer graphics and three-dimensional layouts in his work.

The palace was built in the eclectic style, combining the architectural elements of Empire and Classicism. Two extended symmetrical wings of the building converge in the central part with a portal crowned with a spiral dome, under which a bronze “tree of life” 20 meters high is installed. The evening green illumination of the tree symbolizes foliage, the building itself is lit in light, non-contrasting colors. Every year on August 30, on the Day of Tatarstan and Kazan, gala concerts of the Kazan Autumn International Opera Festival are held on the square in front of the Palace.

The Palace of Farmers was built in Kazan in 2008-2010. There was a lot of controversy about its placement in the center of historical buildings, but there was no big damage - the Palace does not come into view at the same time as the Kremlin. The building turned out to be luxurious, although the borrowing of the forms of the Hofburg in Vienna, the Small Palace in Paris, and elements of the buildings of Rome is striking. The spacious square in front of the Palace has become a place for visiting newlyweds with views of a chic future - prestigious residential buildings are located in the neighborhood on the Kazanka River embankment! The Ministry of Agriculture of Tatarstan and its subordinate organizations settled in the building.
