The Mill in Kamen'-na-Obi
In the beginning of the 20th century many tanneries, candle-works, mills and other plants were built.

By the first years of the 20th century there were six fur-works and tanneries, two soap-works, five brick-works, two saw-mills and about forty shoe workshops. All the erections influenced the architectural view of the town. Different factories and warehouses for ready-made production were built on the bank of the Ob river. The first electric station in the style of neoclassicism was built there.

The horse-breeding plant of the merchant A. Vinocurov in the village of Tyumentsevo is a monument of 20th century architecture with an original system of basic elements. The architectural solution depends on the design of the polyhedral marquee which is 21 m. in diameter. The saddlers of the plant (1909--1910) join in the architectural ensemble of the riding house. The walls of the saddlers are made of red stone, the design of the floor includes simple wooden constructions. The basement is made of local stones.
