关于博物馆

On 21 November 1987 Maria Alexandrovna Dragunova founded the museum in honor of the 70th anniversary of the October Revolution. She headed the institution for 20 years. The exhibition hall of the museum features paintings by Great Patriotic War veteran and pensioner Alexander Andreevich Vasilyev, as well as applied art exhibits. The ethnographic hall displays a rich collection of household items, tools, antique clay, wood and iron objects, as well as jewelry and an operational weaving loom. The military hall is dedicated to the Civil War and the early years of Soviet power in the region, as well as to district residents who served at the front and on the home front during the Great Patriotic War. In closed display cases are kept combat orders, veterans' medals, as well as soldiers' helmets, side caps, canteens, mess kits and clothing. The modern hall shows the district in the post-war and contemporary stages of development, and also presents industrial enterprises in the district. The nature hall is devoted to the region's natural world and features collections of animal and bird sculptures.
