A time capsule, laid in 1974, was recovered in Kirov.
A metal cylinder with the names of a locksmith, welder, technologist and shop supervisor engraved on it was taken out of the ground. As explained in the mayor's office, the capsule was laid in 1974, and it should be opened only in 2074 — by the 700th anniversary of Kirov. Due to the beginning of the construction of the temple, it was decided to move it. The Vyatka Museum of Local Lore will become the new "home" for the capsule, where it will be displayed under glass until the moment of opening.According to archival data, inside the capsule are stored: a message to descendants, a bust of S.M. Kirov, a bas-relief of V.I. Lenin, products from Kirov factories, books and postcards, Dymkov toys, movies and letters from schoolchildren in 1974 to their peers in 2074.
In the place where the capsule was located, there was a decorative plate with the inscription: "Here lies the time capsule. It was buried in 1974. It will be opened in 2074 on the anniversary of the city."
