Vadim Zadorogny Technical Museum, Transport museum in Arkhangelskoye, Krasnogorsky District, Moscow Oblast, Russia
The Technical Museum is an exhibition venue for vehicles and military equipment in Arkhangelskoe village. The indoor space shows cars from different decades of the 20th century alongside motorcycles, armored machines, and aircraft.
Vadim Zadorozhny, a former history teacher, began collecting cars in 1999 and founded the Automobile Club of Convertibles and Roadsters in 2001. A three-floor building was erected in a field near Arkhangelskoye Palace, and the collection moved there in 2004. A storage building followed in 2005, and the six-floor main building opened in 2007.
The name honors the founder and collector whose private passion became a public venue. Visitors can view many vehicles from inside and sit in the driver's seats.
The site is located north of central Moscow and is accessible by car via major roads. Guided tours provide background on the vehicles and technical details for interested visitors.
Two tram cars from Mariupol arrived here in 2023 and show damage from their former service. A passenger car and a snow removal vehicle now stand among the other exhibits from peacetime.
