About museum
\r\nVladimir Ivanovich Brezhnev, Honored Farmer of Russia, opened an ethnographic museum of peasant life of the 17th–19th centuries in 2007, which was assembled over more than 10 years. It features over a thousand unique items of Russian antiquity, including horse-drawn plows, cultivators, straw cutters, craftsmen's tools, as well as a working loom.

Each exhibit carries the spirit of the time, the era, the lives and fates of Rus' and its people.
