Museum of the Silver Age (V.Y. Bryusov House)

The Silver Age Museum opened on October 26, 1999. The exposition unfolded in the house where from 1910 to 1924 lived the poet, writer, critic, philologist-Pushkinist Valery Yakovlevich Bryusov (1873-1924). The building, which was transferred to the State Literary Museum in 1987, was restored by 1998. In 1999, in the year of the 200th anniversary of the birth of A. S. Pushkin, the exposition “A. S. Pushkin and Russian Literature of the Silver Age” was opened. The restoration continued for more than ten years, its completion was an exposition almost entirely based on materials from the museum’s funds. Single exhibits were taken from a private collection.

Gladysh, Honored Artist of Russia A.A. Tavrizov and others.
