Kazachinsky District Museum and Exhibition Center

About museum

Thanks to the personal initiative of public figure and local historian G.K. Sharlay, the Museum and Exhibition Center was established. Under her leadership, with the help of school local historians at the Pioneer House, active accumulation of materials about the life of the district and the collection of objects began. In March 1994, with the support of deputies of the Kazachinsky District Council and the district administration, the museum was opened.
\r\n
\r\nCurrently the museum's main collection numbers 632 items; it includes painting, graphics, sculpture, ethnography and other collections. The building has 3 working halls. The local history section presents several permanent exhibitions that tell about the main significant stages in the origin and development of the village of Kazachinskoye and the Kazachinsky District. In two exhibition halls there are constantly changing shows from private collections, where you can see works by People’s and Honored cultural workers and masters of decorative and applied arts.

\r\nToday the museum holds events dedicated to commemorating memorable dates in the history of the country, the native region and the district, history lessons, and master classes in wool felting.
