History
It was an oriental bazaar with a characteristic set of buildings. Repeatedly mentioned in the works of the classic of Tatar literature Gabdulla Tukay and other pre-revolutionary Tatar writers.
Bazaar Sennaya Square had the shape of an elongated rectangle, built up around the perimeter of apartment buildings, hotel rooms, retail shops and bathhouses. The compositional center of the Haymarket and the square was the Haymarket (now the Nurullah Mosque) . The buildings of the Amur , Bulgar , Apanayevsky Compound, etc., also stood out in the development of the bazaar and square.
The hay bazaar ceased to exist in 1932. A narrow Moskovskaya street passes through the place of the former square, ending on a wide main street - Tatarstan Avenue . On the part of the former territory of the square there is Trud Square with the large fountain and sculptural composition “Workers on the Globe” of the Stalin era, restored in the 2010s. Many buildings of the bazaar and square were lost, completely new ones appeared (for example, the buildings of Gorgaz and the Ministry of Economy of the Republic of Tatarstan on Moskovskaya Street, a 5-storey “ stalinka ” at the corner of the Moscow / Tatarstan intersection) or to some extent similar (for example, a new building instead numbers of "Bulgar" at the same intersection).
