Kutuzovskai︠a︡ izba

Kutuzovskaia izba is a museum housed in a traditional wooden building on Kutuzovsky Prospekt in Moscow. It contains exhibits featuring military artifacts and documents from Russian military history.

The building was founded in 1887 to commemorate a strategic meeting held by General Mikhail Kutuzov during the 1812 war against Napoleon. This connection between the general and the site makes it a marker of a turning point in Russian military history.

The house displays personal objects and documents from the lives of 19th century military commanders. Visitors can observe how military leaders lived during that era through the items kept here.

The museum is located on Kutuzovsky Prospekt in the Dorogomilovo District and is open on weekdays and weekends. It is best to check opening hours before visiting, as schedules may vary seasonally.

The building itself is a preserved example of 19th century Russian wooden architecture, a style rarely seen in modern Moscow. Walking through the house gives visitors a sense of how structures were built and how people lived in that era.
