The Volgograd Planetarium, located in the historically rich city of Volgograd (formerly known as Stalingrad), does not have its own distinct food history, but it is situated in a region with a deep culinary culture. Volgograd’s food history is a reflection of Russian and regional cuisines, influenced by the various ethnic groups that have inhabited the area, such as Russians, Tatars, and Ukrainians. Traditional Russian culinary practices, local agriculture, and the fishing industry from the Volga River have shaped the food in Volgograd.
