Museum of the History of Obninsk

#16
The Museum of the History of Obninsk combines the functions of a local history and art museum. The museum’s richest art collection includes works by R. Falk, I. Golitsyn, P. Konchalovsky, A. Plastov, V. Stozharov, A. Shubin, etc.
 
The museum exhibition features unique archaeological finds, the lifestyle of a pre-revolutionary village, and the three old estates that are now part of the city. Belkino, Turliky and Bugry were once the cultural center that united prominent representatives of the Russian intelligentsia of the 19th–20th centuries. The owners of the estates at different times were V. P. Obninsky, M. K. Morozova, I. I. Troyanovsky, and P. P. Konchalovsky. Among the guests of the manor houses were the artists V. Serov, V. Polenov, I. Levitan; poets V. Bryusov and A. Bely; composer N. Medtner; artists P. Muratov and E. Medtner; philosophers E. Trubetskoy and L. Lopatin.
 
A significant place in the exhibition is dedicated to the unique educational experiment of the innovative pedagogue S. T. Shatsky — the school-colony “Vigorous Life” (1911–1941), as well as the history of the Spanish Children’s Home No 5.
 
A special emphasis in the display area of the Museum is placed on the theme “The Great Patriotic War in Our Region”, which contains materials on local residents — frontline soldiers, home front workers, participants of underground and partisan movements. The exhibition presents household items and relics of the 1940s, sets of materials about the Podolsk cadets, the headquarters of the Western Front on the territory of the future Obninsk with rare photos of G. K. Zhukov.
 
And, of course, the largest exhibition area is dedicated to the history of Obninsk — the city of science. Here the residents and guests of the city can see the history of development of the first Russian science city — memorial complexes of outstanding scientists and leaders of Obninsk (D. I. Blokhintsev, A. I. Leipunsky, E. P. Slavsky, N. V. Timofeev-Ressovsky and others), exhibits documenting the cutting-edge scientific developments and stages of formation of the spiritual environment of the young science city.

The Museum’s staff regularly prepare outstanding exhibition projects, teaming up with the country’s largest museums, and write and publish popular science books in the “Museum Project” series, which already includes eight books.
