The Kebin Earthquake - 1911
The south of Kazakhstan is located on a seismic active zone, so
the area has had many powerful earthquakes. In 1911 the Kebin
earthquake almost completely destroyed the city of Almaty. It
happened on 3rd January and over 770 buildings collapsed in
the city. Many historic buildings were damaged, but one famous
building survived. It was the Ascension Cathedral in Panfilov
Park. At 54m high, it remains one of the tallest wooden
buildings in the world. Amazingly, it survived even though there
aren't any nails in the entire building!
