History

A historical wooden house used to be as the Imperator Restaurant (former Russian Tea Restaurant), now is under reconstruction

Ancient history

The area around the city has been inhabited by modern humans, Neanderthals and Denisovans, for hundreds of thousands of years. They settled here to take advantage of the confluence of the rivers, used for transportation and fishing.[20] In the late BC millennia, the locality was a centre of activity for Scythian and various Turkic peoples.[21]

Russian Empire

While 1730 is considered Barnaul's official establishment date, its first mention dates back to 1724.[3] It was granted city status in 1771.[4] Chosen for its proximity to the mineral-rich Altai Mountains and its location on a major river, it was founded by the wealthy Demidov family.[4] The Demidovs wanted to develop the copper in the mountains, and soon found substantial deposits of silver as well. In 1747, the Demidovs' factories were taken over by the Crown. Barnaul became the center of silver production of the entire Russian Empire.[22]

In 1914, Barnaul was the site of the largest draft riot in Russia during World War I. There were more than 100 casualties from the fighting.[23] Street fighting also took place between White Russians and Reds during the Russian Revolution of 1918.

Maria Stepanovna (née Zudilova) (1912-1996) was born and lived as a child in this city. She later became the mother of American actresses Natalie Wood (born Natalia Zakharenko) and Lana Wood (born Lana Gurdin).[24] Her father Stepan was killed in the 1918 street fighting between the Whites and Reds following the Revolution. Afterward her mother took Maria and her siblings as refugees to Harbin, China. Maria married a Russian there, and they had a daughter Olga together. Maria eventually immigrated with Olga to the United States, where she married another Russian immigrant, from Vladivostok, and had two daughters with him.[24]

World War II

Over half of the light ammunition used by the Soviet Union in World War II is estimated to be manufactured in Barnaul.[25]

Administrative and municipal status

Barnaul is the administrative center of the krai.[11] Within the framework of administrative divisions, it is, together with the work settlement of Yuzhny and twenty-four rural localities, incorporated as the city of krai significance of Barnaul—an administrative unit with the status equal to that of the districts.[1] As a municipal division, the city of krai significance of Barnaul is incorporated as Barnaul Urban Okrug.[12]

Economy

Newly constructed buildings in Barnaul

Barnaul is an important industrial center of Western Siberia. There are more than 100 industrial enterprises in the city, employing approximately 120,000 people. Leading industries include diesel and carbon processing; as well as production of heavy machinery, tires, furniture and footwear.[26] There are a lot of Higher Universities with good training bases so the city has a strong working potential. Now the old city centre is reconstructing to have a touristic cluster with a brandname "Barnaul is a mining town".

Transportation

Barnaul lies at a junction of the Novosibirsk–Almaty and Biysk train lines.

The city is served by Barnaul Airport, located 15 kilometres (9.3 mi) west of Barnaul.

Sports

Since 1957 FC Dynamo Barnaul has been the city's professional football club.[citation needed]
