Since 1988 this museum has been a memorial to one of the most prominent cultural figures and activists of the Kazakh nation, Saken Seyfullin. It is one of the historical and spiritual centers of the capital.

Saken Seyfullin deserves to be regarded as one of the pillars of Kazakh literature. He wrote a large number of poems and every Kazakh has at least once in his or her life read his novel Thorny Path.

The museum exhibits begin with materials on Saken’s homes and finishes with a display of documents connected to the poet’s tragic final days. There is also a large presentation of his manuscripts, editions of his books issued during his life, and documents connected to his public activism.
