Boris Yeltsin Presidential Center, Presidential museum in Yekaterinburg, Russia.
The Boris Yeltsin Presidential Center is a museum in Yekaterinburg, Russia, housed in a modern glass building that displays documents and exhibits about recent Russian history. The building includes several exhibition rooms, a library, and a conference hall, all arranged in an open, light-filled space.
The institution was founded in 2009 and opened its doors in 2015 to document the period of political change after the end of the Soviet Union. The collection preserves records from the years when a new constitution was drafted and the country was reorganized.
The center hosts film screenings, art exhibitions, and public discussions that draw visitors from across the region. The name honors the first president who led the country through the political changes of the nineteen-nineties in Russia.
Visitors will find nine themed exhibition rooms, educational areas, and a library, all accessible during regular opening hours. The building sits near the city center and can be reached easily by public transport.
In its first year of operation, the center welcomed around a quarter million visitors, making it the most visited institution of its kind outside Moscow and Saint Petersburg. The architecture combines glass with modern materials to create a bright and open impression.
