Saratov's history began in the second half of the 16th century, when Tsar Ivan the Terrible finally defeated the remnants of the Golden Horde on the Middle and Lower Volga. Saratov name is said to come from the Tatar words sary tau (Yellow Mountain).

Places of interest, art, and culture
A road bridge across Volga river is the biggest in Europe.
One of the city's most prominent landmarks is the 19th century neo-Gothic Conservatory. When it was built in 1912, the
