Vereshchagin memorial house, Memorial museum in Cherepovets, Russia

The Vereshchagin memorial house is a two-storey building with light-coloured pilasters on its facade, set on a 2-hectare estate in Cherepovets. The museum occupies two buildings, and the main house's rooms are furnished according to the painter's autobiographical book "Childhood and Adolescence". The grounds also hold six outbuildings, including a carriage shed, a bathhouse, a gazebo and a well, plus flower beds, a garden and a herb plot.

The house was built in the 1830s and belonged to the Vereshchagin family for fifty years. In the 1880s Anna Nikolaevna Vereshchagina sold it to the merchant Ivanov. After the revolution it was divided into communal apartments until 1984, when it became a museum. A memorial plaque was installed on 3 April 1954, and in 1960 the house was designated a historical monument.

The displays are reproductions of Vereshchagin's battle paintings held in museums around the world, alongside photographs and documents. The rooms themselves recreate the furnishings of a bourgeois provincial Russian home of the 1860s–1880s, based on his autobiographical book Childhood and Adolescence.

The museum is organized across multiple rooms that visitors can explore with a guide or independently. The collection is accessible to people of all backgrounds interested in the painter's life and artistic work.

The museum's first items arrived in 1927, when V. N. Vereshchagin donated lithographs and reproductions of paintings to the town museum. The collection later grew with paintings from the former Pertovka estate, which lay in the flood zone of the Rybinsk reservoir. In the 1930s there were plans to move the Pertovka manor house to Cherepovets, but lack of money and the war stopped them.
