The Mamin-Sibiryak Memorial House-Museum is located at 27, Pushkina street (formerly known as Sobornaya street). The writer bought this property in 1885. Mamin-Sibiryak bequeathed the house to his daughter Yelena, and she gave the building to the city of Yekaterinburg with the wish that the museum of her father would be opened there.
Until 1919, the writer’s sister Yelizaveta lived there. Then, the building was occupied by communal apartments, and various offices during the Great Patriotic War. In 1946, Yelena Mamina’s will was executed and a museum was opened in the house.
The exhibition tells about life and work of Mamin-Sibiryak through the prism of his everyday life, hobbies and relations with his family and friends. The museum displays the first editions of his works, personal possessions of the writer, Eastern gifts of the director Vladimir Nemirovich-Danchenko and rare archival photographs.
