About museum

The Demidov estate houses the Bykovsky Local History Museum, which was built in the first third of the 19th century. The house is a one-story wooden building with a rectangular layout, clad in boards, with wooden window trims and semi-circular windows. The interior spaces are decorated with Ionic capitals, and the stoves are faced with white tiles. The museum displays items of peasant and noble household life from the late 19th to early 20th centuries, photographs, and documents on the history and culture of the village of Bykovka. The village also contains two churches dating from the first third of the 19th century, a retaining wall, a manor park with a pond and a spring, and the Demidov family necropolis. The museum building is considered an object of cultural heritage of regional significance.
