Nizhny Novgorod is a city with a rich history and vibrant culture, where museums offer a journey through time and space. Here literary fates, industrial power, folk crafts and modern art are intertwined. For those planning excursions and itineraries around the region, the city will be an endless source of discovery and inspiration.
In Nizhny Novgorod there are many museums of various orientations: The State Literary-Memorial and Natural Museum-Reserve of A.S. Pushkin Boldino, where the memorial complex is kept, opened for visiting since 1949; the Museum of A.M. Gorky’s Childhood (Kashirina House), operating since January 1, 1938, and the Museum-Apartment of A.M. Gorky, opened on September 15, 1971. The technological history of the city is revealed by the Museum of History of OAO NITEL, established in November 1967, and the Museum of History of OAO GAZ with a rich collection of automotive heritage. The Volga-Vyatka branch of the Pushkin State Museum of Fine Arts and the Nizhny Novgorod State Art Museum present significant collections of painting and graphics, and the Russian Museum of Photography, founded on September 21, 1992, stores unique archives of photo art. Among the special expositions are the open area “Shipping locomotives of Russia” with 32 items of natural equipment on display, the Shchelokovsky farm museum with architectural monuments and the Toy Museum, where toys are collected over the past hundred years. In the vicinity there are historical, art and local history museums of the region, such as the Bolshaya Murashkino Museum and manor complexes with linden parks, which expand the possibilities of interesting exit routes.
Museum life of Nizhny Novgorod is full of events: museums traditionally celebrate anniversaries and create special exhibitions in honor of the foundation dates - for example, a number of corporate and local history expositions were associated with the anniversaries of factories and institutions in the 1960-1970s. Art institutes and branches regularly host temporary and imported exhibitions, and historical and ethnographic collections participate in regional exchange projects and visiting exhibitions. Such events give a chance to see rare artifacts, archival documents and unique samples of folk crafts, which are not always available in permanent exhibitions.
We invite you to come to Nizhny Novgorod and make your own route through the museums of the city. To make excursions even more rich and memorable, it is worth using the services of a private guide: local specialists will select the optimal routes, tell little-known stories, help with the organization of tickets and visit times. Book your tour in advance and your trip to the museums of Nizhny Novgorod will turn into a bright and informative discovery.
