Butterfly, Ant and Reptile House (Pavilion No. 519)

About museum

The Butterfly House at VDNKh is another attraction and a place to visit while at VDNKh. We invite you to visit the Butterfly House in Moscow with the whole family, with children, to take a girlfriend on a date, or simply to enjoy some time immersed in the atmosphere of living nature. Our Tropical Butterfly Garden is eternal summer, even in the coldest winter. In addition to the butterfly garden itself, a pleasant surprise awaits you — a unique collection of butterflies, beetles and other insects from various countries around the world, assembled by a professional entomologist over decades, as well as souvenirs, artworks made from butterfly wings and much more. The Butterfly House hosts themed tours, romantic dates, and butterfly photoshoots. Our Butterfly Park rents out premises for children's parties, master classes and presentations. You can also purchase live butterflies and chrysalises, or contact us for professional mounting/display of private collections and for biology classrooms.
