Interesting Moscow: the most unusual museums for those who are tired of Tretyakov
Sooner or later, even the great, even those attractions, in which crowds of tourists are crowded, begins to get bored. For the most saturated in Moscow, there is a special number of unusual museums that you have not heard of yet!
1. Museum of History of Alekseev Moscow City Psychiatric Hospital (Kashchenko). 2 Country Highway. Works on Tuesdays, Wednesdays, Fridays from 9.00 to 15.00.
You must first call and arrange a visit.
You can study ancient histories of diseases, look at pictures of patients, learn about the history of psychiatry, about how the methods of treatment and attitude to the mentally ill, about punitive psychiatry of Soviet times.
2. Central Border Museum of the FSB of Russia. 13 Yauz Boulevard. The recording is on the phone.
Ilya Muromets is the first Russian border guard. And few people know: the oprichniki, in addition to the feats known to all, were engaged in the protection of the state border. In the museum you will see the imperial eagle shot by border guards from the Berlin Reich Chancellery, a bunch of shooting pens and roulettes, two stuffed shepherds and two suitcases in which a Japanese official unsuccessfully tried to smuggle women as contraband.
3. Museum "Underground printing house 1905-1906". 55 Forest Street. Work schedule: VT-SB -10.00-17.30, VS - 10.00-16.30. The last Friday of each month is a day off.
See the shop under the sign "Wholesale trade of Caucasian fruits Kalandadze" - feel free to go to it and slightly behind, in the arch. It's a model fruit shop, it's actually an illegal printing house! Yeah, next to the former police station! Who never found her. Take the tour, I was very happy!
4. The bunker on Taganka. 5th Kotelnicheska Lane, 11. A preliminary agreement by telephone is required.
The Museum of the Cold War in the bunker on Taganka is the newest Moscow museum, a piece of mysterious and secret dungeons of Moscow. This is a closed command post, which from a military facility has become a tourist. The entrance to the museum - a concrete dome 6-meter thick - is disguised in the old house No34.
5. Museum of Soviet slot machines. 7th Park Street. Works on Wednesdays from 19.30 to 21.30 by prior arrangement by phone.
Of the 37 machines on display, 25 operate. And the people!! Who's 25-30 and more years!!! Sea battle, Tancodrome and other exhibits of our childhood WORK!!! Apart from the entrance fee, the museum has circulation only Soviet fifteen-kopeck coins, a handful of which is issued to each visitor who bought a ticket.
Please! You won't regret it!
