Saken Seifullin Museum
About This Museum
Tucked away on a leafy stretch of Auezov Street in the heart of Astana, the Saken Seifullin Museum feels like a quiet conversation with history itself. This isn't a vast, impersonal institution but an intimate space that chronicles the turbulent life of one of Kazakhstan's most revered poets and intellectuals. You can almost feel his presence in the carefully preserved study, where his personal typewriter and handwritten manuscripts sit frozen in time. It’s a poignant tribute to a man whose words helped shape a national identity.
Collection Highlights
The real draw is Seifullin's reconstructed study, complete with his desk and personal library. Don't miss the powerful exhibits detailing his political struggles and tragic fate during the Soviet repression, which add a deeply human and somber layer to his literary legacy.
