The Museum of Geology of Central Siberia is an institution of the Ministry of Natural Resources and Ecology of the Krasnoyarsk Territory. The museum was founded in 1960 under the Krasnoyarsk Geological Administration, and since 1999 it began to function as an independent regional institution.

Currently, various projects are being created at the sites of educational, cultural and entertainment institutions of the region. Modern installations, quests and master classes draw attention to such a seemingly complex science as geology. Interregional and international cooperation is actively conducted - exchange of expositions, consultations of specialists, etc. Much attention is paid to educational and educational work - the School of the Young Geologist operates on the basis of the museum, and in connection with the interest of adults, the Geos-Class has been launched since 2014.
