Unique museums have been preserved in and around Pskov: historical and architectural landscape reserves in Izborsk and Mikhailovsky, memorial estates dedicated to M.P. Mussorgsky and N.A.

The city has the Main Pskov Museum-Reserve with extensive local history and archaeological collections, the Pskov Railway Museum and the house-museum dedicated to the history of the Great Patriotic War. In the vicinity, you can visit the working water mill in the village of Bugrovo and memorial estates in Trigorsk and Petrovsky, where rare documents, personal belongings and musical manuscripts of composers, ancient icons, household items and unique architectural fragments are stored. These places form rich routes for excursions: from fortress walls to quiet estates, each exposition tells its own living history.
The museum life of Pskov is full of events: annual events like the Night of Museums in May, temporary exhibitions of contemporary artists and imported collections from large Russian funds regularly appear in the poster. At different times of the year, thematic historical projects and musical evenings are held in memorial estates, special educational programs for families and schoolchildren, as well as temporary exhibitions dedicated to the anniversaries of famous cultural figures. Keep an eye out for the local museum poster and the announcement of special excursions – there are often demonstration workshops and rare exhibitions with unique artifacts.
