Achinsk Local History Museum named after D. S. Kargapolov
О музее
In the historic part of the city of Achinsk is the estate of Achinsk merchant M. M. Mokrousov, which now houses the Achinsk Local History Museum. In the two-story mansion you can see tile stoves, ceiling stucco, and metal interior shutters. You can also listen to the popular song “Matushka-Golubushka” on a German polyphone. The museum offers an excursion route to the Aidashin Cave, an archaeological Neolithic site, and the excavation site of the Achinsk Paleolithic settlement. Visitors can purchase a souvenir — a piece of nepheline, which, according to medieval scholars, brings success to its owner. Visit the museum and get unforgettable impressions!
