Музей Фаины Раневской, Memorial museum project in Taganrog, Russia.

The planned Faina Ranevskaya Museum is to occupy the second floor of a two-story mansion at 10 Frunze Street, the former Nikolaevskaya Street, 12, where the actress was born. The space corresponds to the hall and nursery of the Girsha Feldman family. Professor Nikolai Zagray, a resident, restored the marble stove and fireplace, repainted the massive window frames, and hung a portrait of Ranevskaya by the main staircase and a memorial plaque on the facade. The museum has not yet opened.

In 1987 actor Innokenty Smoktunovsky, in Taganrog for the lead in the drama theatre's "Ivanov", first raised the idea of a Ranevskaya museum. Professor Nikolai Zagray, a resident of the Frunze 10 building where she was born, restored its fireplace and marble stove and kept a visitors' book signed by Angelina Stepanova, Sergey Yursky and Iya Savvina. The flat was bought in 2008, the project approved in 2011, and in 2023 the regional budget allotted 108 million rubles, with opening planned for 2028.

The museum is planned in the house on Frunze Street where Faina Ranevskaya was born; her nephew, born there shortly before the revolution, visited from the United States in 1997. Since 1987 the idea has been kept alive by residents and admirers, and the professor's guest book holds entries by Angelina Stepanova, Innokenty Smoktunovsky, Sergei Yursky and Iya Savvina. The building is still not open to the public.

The museum is not yet open: the house at ulitsa Frunze, 10, awaits restoration, with opening announced for 2028. The building stands in the centre of Taganrog, near the drama theatre where Innokenty Smoktunovsky raised the idea in 1987. Visitors can see the facade and the memorial plaque from the street; interior access is not possible.

A professor worked for years to preserve the original room furnishings in the place where the actress was born and later installed a memorial portrait. This personal dedication to keeping the spaces intact makes the project special among museum establishments.
