Myshkin, Historical town in Yaroslavl Oblast, Russia
Myshkin stands on the steep left bank of the Volga River, positioned at an elevation of 110 meters above sea level at coordinates 57.78N, 38.45E.
The settlement dates back to the 15th century and received town status in 1777, temporarily lost it during Soviet times, and regained it in 1991.
The town maintains multiple museums including a Mouse Museum, Felt Boot Museum, ethnographic collections, art gallery, and an open-air vintage car exhibition.
River cruise ships regularly dock at Myshkin, allowing visitors from Moscow and other cities along the Volga to explore this small Russian municipality.
The town derives its name from the Russian word for mouse and embraces this identity through dedicated exhibitions and mouse-themed decorative elements.
