Noginsk Museum and Exhibition Center

About museum

The local history museum was presumably founded in December 1927 on the basis of the departments of the Bogorodsk Scientific and Pedagogical Institute of Local History named after M.V. Lomonosov. In 1930 Bogorodsk was renamed Noginsk; only by the late 1930s did the museum settle in the Merchants' Warehouses building on the market square, now Bugrov Square.

Over the years of its existence collections of painting, everyday life and ethnography, photographs and documents, archaeology, and numismatics have been formed. The museum's core exhibits are collections of documents, photographs, and items that testify to the establishment and activities of the city's (Bogorodsk Uyezd's) textile enterprises and the district. The museum holds a unique collection of archaeological excavations conducted in the Noginsk district in the 1960s-1970s.
