Torzhok is a cozy provincial city with a rich history, where museums make the trip lively and rich. Historical layers, wooden architecture and literary traditions intertwine here, and the expositions invite you to leisurely excursions and thoughtful routes for any traveler.
In the center of the museum life of the city is the All-Russian Historical and Ethnographic Museum, which over the years has formed a strong research team and collected collections on the history and ethnography of the region. Museum of A.S. Pushkin in the city Torke, opened on June 3, 1972 in a one-storey wooden mansion Lviv-Balavinsky, is dedicated to the travels of the poet and preserves the atmosphere of the XIX century. The architectural and ethnographic open-air museum in the village of Vasilyevo was established in 1976 on the territory of the estate of landowners and presents traditional buildings and household items. The Museum of Wooden Architecture in Vasilev is an architectural and artistic ensemble of the XVIII-XIX centuries, where you can see rare examples of wooden architecture and get acquainted with the everyday traditions of past centuries. Museums of the city and the surrounding area complement each other: scientific funds, ethnographic collections and recreated architectural ensembles form rich cultural routes.
The museum poster changes throughout the year: temporary exhibitions, thematic projects and imported expositions from regional collections are held in the halls, which expand local collections. Educational programs, lectures and excursions for different ages are organized here, and ethnographic shows and master classes are often held in Vasilev during the summer season. Follow the calendar of events and book tickets and excursions in advance so as not to miss interesting exhibitions and seasonal projects.
