The history of Tyumen

Tyumen is the first and oldest Russian city formed on the territory of Siberia. The settlement was founded in 1586 on the site of an ancient settlement at the mouth of the Tyumenka River as an outpost for the development of Siberia and the Far East.

The name was taken from the Turkic "Tyumen", which meant "lowland, lower reaches". Since the beginning of the 17th century, the city has become a major transport interchange connecting Russian cities with China. The city is located at the crossroads of trade routes between Europe and Asia, and therefore has strategic importance.

Tyumen of the early 18th century is a large transit city with developed trade and crafts. There were famous craftsmen who specialized in blacksmithing, soap making, and wood products throughout Siberia. The city has achieved special popularity thanks to the art of leather dressing. The products were sold not only in our country, but also abroad.

The economic importance of Tyumen increased with the development of shipping and the construction of the railway in 1885. The first steamship launched in 1838 and the opening of the Tyumen - Yekaterinburg railway line in 1885 made the city an important economic center of Russia.
