Sightseeing

The city acquired a regular-shaped planning with two main stone-paved streets in the second half of the 19th – early 20th centuries. Post-war building-up was carried out in line with the old orthogonal grid.

There has remained the gate of the Turkish Fortress (1781-82), the walls (about 4 km long) of which were destroyed by Russian armies in 1791-1828.

Archeological excavations have been held near the embankment in Gorgippiya quarters (mainly 1st - 2nd centuries) since 1975.

The city has Anapa Archaeological Museum Reserve.
