Siberian Cats Park

About

A charming art installation in a small green square. Here you’ll be greeted by a dozen golden cats and kittens on pedestals — a tribute to the legendary story of how Siberian cats helped save Leningrad from a rat infestation. After the blockade, rats flooded the city and even threatened valuable museum items at the Hermitage. To stop them, Tyumen sent an entire train car full of feline reinforcements.
