Museum of Political History of Russia
An interesting museum that contains a large number of exhibits that provide a specific, and not just an abstract, understanding of many pivotal events in Russian history.
A tour throughout this museum will permit taking a step back from the “book” option and becoming enriched when presented with illustrative materials in a collection of authentic items and objects: interiors, furniture, posters, household items, and all the wealth presented in artefacts.
This tour will draw you closer to understanding the twentieth century, a complicated one in Russia’s history. We also want to note that the museum is located in the mansion that belonged to the ballerina Matilda Kshesinskaya, and is a curious example of Art Nouveau – so the tour is also interesting from an architectural standpoint.
