The Ekaterinoslavsky Museum of Local Lore was opened on the basis of the school museum on July 1, 1988. Its founder was Slutsky F.F., a veteran of the Second World War, a history teacher. The locals collected information on the history of settlements of the district, their economic development, about noble people, veterans of war and labor. Their correspondence with the participants of the Civil War, with the Khabarovsk, Blagoveshchensky, Volochaevsky museums, the Hermitage, the Museum of the Soviet Army, the Leningrad branch of the Institute of Archaeology of the Academy of Sciences of the USSR has been preserved. All these materials gave rise to the school museum of local lore, which in 1988 received the status of the Ekaterinoslav Museum of Local History. Over the years, the museum has become a center of work with children and the public. There are clubs of interest: local lore, ethnographic, collectors. We consider the cooperation with masters of applied arts and amateur artists of the district to be a success in our work. Exhibitions of their works have become traditional and arouse great interest among visitors.
