Pavilion No. 26 Transport at the VDNKh, Museum building at Exhibition of Achievements of National Economy, Moscow, Russia

The Transport Pavilion No. 26 stands as a monumental structure featuring Stalinist Empire and Art Deco architectural elements within the VDNKh complex in Moscow.

Architects Vyacheslav Oltarzhevsky and Mikhail Minkus designed this pavilion in 1937, which underwent substantial reconstruction in 1954 to accommodate new exhibitions.

The building transitioned from agricultural displays to transport exhibitions in 1967, presenting models of rail, marine, motor, and air transportation systems.

Visitors can observe detailed demonstrations of propulsion mechanisms and operational instruments for different types of vehicles through indoor and outdoor displays.

The pavilion maintains its original architectural features while preparing to reopen as the Moscow Transport Museum, combining historical preservation with modern exhibition purposes.
