Vitebsk regional museum, Regional history museum in Vitebsk, Belarus
The Vitebsk regional museum occupies a historic city hall building and presents an extensive collection of over 200,000 items. The holdings include artworks, historical objects, weapons, books, and regional art collections spanning different periods.
The museum was founded in 1918 through a major donation from A. Brodovskiy. Over time, collections from the Church Archeology Museum and the Vitebsk Archival Commission were brought together.
The art collection features works by painters connected to the region across different periods. Visitors can see paintings and artistic objects that reflect the creative traditions of the area.
The museum is distributed across several locations in Vitebsk, with sections dedicated to literature, regional history, and private collections. Visitors should allow ample time and check in advance which sections and branch buildings are worth including in their visit.
The institution maintains Zdravnevo Manor, a former summer residence of painter Ilya Repin from the late 1800s. The site preserves family documents and painting reproductions that provide insight into the artist's life and work.
