Belgorod Regional Homeland Museum

The Belgorod Regional Homeland Museum is a history museum dedicated to the local region, presenting collections about the area's past, traditional ways of living, and natural world. It includes displays of stuffed wildlife alongside artifacts and objects from people's everyday lives.

The museum was founded in 1924 and is one of the region's oldest cultural institutions. During World War II, it suffered major losses when military occupation led to destruction and theft of many of its exhibits.

The museum displays everyday objects from the region's past, including textiles, tools, and household items that show how local people lived and worked. Walking through the exhibits gives you a sense of daily life as it existed in different time periods.

The museum is open throughout the week and can be found on Popova Street in central Belgorod. Plan enough time to walk through the different exhibition areas at a relaxed pace and take in the displays.

For many years, the collection was housed inside a converted cathedral rather than a purpose-built museum building. The current dedicated location is a relatively recent development in the institution's long history.
