About museum

Residents of the village of Novomikhaylovsky in Kushchyovsky District can be proud of their small homeland: the Museum of Military and Labor Glory was opened here on May 9, 1992, at the initiative of the chairman of the veterans' council, Alexey Petrovich Glov. Since 2004 the museum has borne his name. In December 2006 it became a municipal cultural institution. The museum's exhibition consists of five halls displaying documents, rare books, photographs, items of ethnography and numismatics, and relics from the Great Patriotic War. Here you can learn about the pre-revolutionary period, the 1917 revolution, the Civil War, the formation of the 'Koit' commune, the kolkhozes in the territory of the rural district in the 1930s, the heroic and martial deeds during the Great Patriotic War of 1941–1945, the establishment of the Novomikhaylovsky state farm, and the folk creativity of fellow villagers. A memorial plaque installed on the museum building helps to remember the compatriots who glorified their small homeland in battle and labor.
