The Chizhevsky House Museum, Research museum on Moskovskaya Street in Kaluga, Russia

The Chizhevsky House Museum contains exhibits dedicated to the scientific research of Alexander Chizhevsky, focusing on heliobiology and atmospheric science studies.

The building served as both residence and laboratory for Professor Alexander Chizhevsky during his research period in Kaluga before his arrest in 1942.

The museum exhibits display scientific equipment, personal belongings, and research documents that demonstrate the early development of atmospheric studies in Russia.

Visitors can explore the museum from Tuesday through Friday between 10:00 AM and 6:00 PM, with extended hours until 7:00 PM on weekends.

The museum features the original electroeffluvial chandelier, an air ionization device invented by Chizhevsky for studying atmospheric effects on living organisms.
