The Memorial Museum of Pavel Petrovich Bazhov is located in the house that the legendary Ural writer built for his family in 1914.
The furniture and décor of the house was carefully preserved by Bazhov’s wife Valentina Alexandrovna, thanks to whom the museum was opened in 1969.
At the moment, the permanent exhibition that includes three rooms, the showcases in the fourth room and the corridor almost entirely consists of authentic items and as reliably as possible recreates the home life of the Bazhov family. The house is more than a hundred years old, but it has never been significantly rebuilt, so it fairly accurately reflects the writer’s everyday life and duties.
The memorial garden with outbuildings is a special and powerful part of the exhibition. The visitor can see birch, linden, and apple trees planted by the Bazhov family here. The writer’s favorite gazebo under the linden tree has been preserved.
Pavel Petrovich lived in this house for the last 28 years of his life. It was here that all his works were written, including the famous Ural tales — the collection “The Malachite Casket”.
The museum is part of the United Museum of the Urals Writers.
