Machine Tool Museum, Industrial museum in Tula, Russia.
The Machine Tool Museum is a collection dedicated to industrial equipment housed in a transformed factory building in Tula, showcasing various types of production machinery. The exhibition features devices from multiple Russian cities and presents the technological development of regional manufacturing.
The museum was founded in 2018 when a former factory site in Tula was converted into a cultural and educational center. This transformation preserved the city's industrial history and made it accessible to visitors.
The space reflects Tula's long tradition as a center for metalwork and engineering, showing how factories shaped the region's identity and daily life for generations.
Your visit can include different tour options that present technical, social, or regional perspectives on industrial production. The facility also features laboratory spaces and lecture halls for deeper learning.
The museum building itself is a former production site, so visitors learn within actual factory walls and structures. This connects the history directly with the physical space in a way that a typical museum cannot achieve.
