Kolomna is renowned for its rich history. Anyone who has ever visited this wonderful city and breathed its air full of stories and legends surely knows how many different museums it has. For visitors who want to personalize their route and see as many sights as possible, a special museum about museums has been opened here.
The navigator museum is located in the historic city center, by the ancient Pyatnitskiye Gates, and carries out not only tourist but also informational activities. The museum promotes Kolomna's history and historical values, and also informs visitors about all the content and service opportunities in the city.
A small exhibition in the museum tells what Kolomna was famous for and what it is like today, and what unique cultural heritage the people of Kolomna and their ancestors left behind. The exhibition features the Kolomna den'ga (a 15th-century coin), the famous Kolomna pot and porcelain from the Kudinov factory, and gold cloth popular in the 18th–19th centuries.
But the museum's main task is to help visitors plan their cultural leisure. The navigator has established contacts with museums, tour guides, hotels and restaurants, manufacturers and workshops, clubs, parks and rental services. Thanks to well-established cooperation schemes with various organizations, the museum staff develop individual tourist routes based on each guest's preferences, available time and financial means.
