The Princess Frog Museum

The Princess Frog Museum is the first fabulous museum in the city of Rostov the Great. Its opening took place on March 23, 2012 at the guest house "The Princess-Frog", in the building of the 1790s, owned by Rostov merchants Malyshev.

How did the idea of creating a museum come about? In the monograph of Rybakov Boris Alexandrovich “Paganism of Ancient Rus” material was found that for the Ugric-Finnish tribe the mere, from which we, Rostovites, went, the frog was a sacred creature. So, the Russian folk tale “Frog Princess” could have appeared on the shores of our lake Nero. We really liked this version and allowed ourselves to fantasize about it. So there was an interactive game-journey on the fairy tale “Frog Princess”. If you prefer a family holiday, we are waiting for you. Crossing the threshold of the museum, you will get into the world of fairy tales. You will be involved in an interactive action and give unforgettable sensations to both children and adults. You are waiting for trials, as well as royal sons, according to the choice of brides. You will show your skill, like the royal daughter-in-law. You will find a sweet stove in which Vasilisa the Wise baked her bread. You will visit the Koshcheev kingdom and fight with the formidable king Koshchei Immortal. There is also an exhibition of frog figurines in our museum. More than 6,500 of them... Come, you won't regret it!
