The Lubinsky Museum of Local History was founded on the basis of a public museum that operated since 1969, the head of which was a veteran of the Great Patriotic War V.D. Rychkov.

In May 2000, the museum opened its doors to visitors in a new building and with updated expositions: “The Lands of My Past Years” (the Hall of Local History), “Lubintsy in the Battles for the Motherland” (the Hall of Military Glory), “Nature of the Native Land”, an exhibition hall where traveling temporary exhibitions are organized.

As of January 1, 2022, the main museum fund has 6,423 exhibits. Among them are subjects of ethnography, numismatics, decorative and applied creativity, documents and photographs. The most unique exhibits were included in the “Catalogue of rare and valuable objects of regional museums of the Omsk region”, published by the Omsk State Museum of Local History. More than 4,000 exhibits are included in the State Catalogue of the Museum Fund of the Russian Federation, which is the main source of information about museum objects and collections.

Along with the activities to preserve and popularize the cultural heritage, the museum staff carry out a great deal of cultural and educational work.
