Motovilikha Plants museum

The Motovilikha Plants museum displays cannons, tanks, and other military equipment made at the factory site. The space combines outdoor exhibitions with large weapons and indoor areas with documents, photographs, and technical information.

The factory started making artillery equipment in 1736 and played a major role in Russian military history. The museum itself was founded in 1976 to preserve this long tradition.

The exhibits show how this factory shaped Russian military production over centuries and what people created there. The objects tell stories of craftsmanship and industrial methods that changed with each generation.

Visitors can walk through outdoor exhibits at any time, while indoor spaces are open during set hours and guided tours are available. It helps to allow time for both areas and wear comfortable shoes since you will be on your feet for quite a bit.

Among the exhibited pieces is a massive cannon representing one of the largest ever cast at this location. This object shows the remarkable scale of what the factory's craftspeople and engineers could produce.
