Музей Ігоря Талькова

The Igor Talkov Museum is a biographical exhibition in a 17th-century building on Chernigovsky Lane that displays personal possessions, musical instruments, stage costumes, photographs, and manuscripts of the Russian singer and poet. The collection covers different aspects of his life and artistic work in one location.

The museum was founded in 1993 after the artist's widow donated his personal items to preserve his memory. This took place shortly after the musician passed away in Saint Petersburg.

The museum displays Talkov's early life through personal items such as his first accordion and documents his career as an artist through concert posters and performance programs. Visitors can also listen to and watch his numerous audio and video recordings that capture his live performances.

The museum is open on weekday afternoons and weekend mornings, with visiting hours that make it accessible during various times. Plan your visit to spend adequate time viewing the exhibits and listening to the recordings on display.

The museum preserves the final clothing worn by the artist on his last day, along with handwritten song lyrics. These personal items offer direct insight into the final period of his life.
