Музей Фаины Раневской

The museum occupies a two-story building with preserved original rooms, including marble fireplaces and historical furnishings that keep the elegant atmosphere of earlier times intact. The spaces show where one of the Soviet Union's greatest actresses grew up and spent her early years.

The initiative to create the museum began in 1987 when a prominent actor proposed the idea during a performance at the local drama theater. The project developed gradually over decades until restoration and setup were completed with support from donors and public funding.

The museum honors one of the Soviet Union's greatest actresses and shows how her career shaped local theater life. Visitors can see how her work and legacy remain present in the city today.

The building is located in a traditional residential neighborhood and is easily reached on foot. Visitors should expect intimate historic spaces and allow time to look at personal items and documents at a relaxed pace.

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.
