Falconry Museum

About museum

\r\nIn 2010 the Falconry Museum was opened; it relocated several times. It is now housed in a yurt at the Konstantin Sokolov Falconry Center, surrounded by lightweight tents and Mongolian yurts on a 21-hectare site 20 km from Moscow. Visitors can tour the stables, the kennels and the falconry yard, and also take part in educational programs for guests by prior arrangement. The museum exhibits more than 750 items covering the 10th through the 21st centuries and representing the cultural heritage of 40 countries. Here you can learn the intricacies of training wild birds of prey, horses used in falconry, and dogs, and discover the secrets of falconry traditions from the museum's founder and keeper, who is recognized as a bearer of Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity with 25 years of experience.
