Visit to the Kellomäki–Komarovo Museum (without guided tour)

About exhibition

\n\nThe Kellomäki–Komarovo Museum's exhibition recreates dacha life of the 1950s–1970s. The exhibition hall presents three periods in the settlement's history (the Silver Age, the Finnish émigré period, the Soviet era). People whose names are written into the history of our culture lived here, socialized, conversed, debated and created — D. Shostakovich, A. Akhmatova, V. Solovyov-Sedoy, N. Cherkasov, G. Kozintsev, E. Schwartz, D. Likhachev, I. Brodsky. Collaborative projects arose; the special atmosphere produced followers, inspired competitiveness and nourished ideas. The museum was founded in 2005 by Komarovo residents Irina Alexandrovna Snegova and Elena Arkadyevna Tsvetkova; since 2020 it has been a branch of the St. Petersburg State Public Cultural Institution 'Historical and Cultural Museum Complex in Razliv'. Currently, the permanent collection and temporary exhibitions are housed in the administration building of the Komarovo settlement. The museum is open daily from 10:00 to 18:00 (closed on Wednesdays).\n\n
