Vladimir Vysotsky Museum, Biographical museum in Tagansky District, Moscow, Russia.
The Vladimir Vysotsky Museum is a biographical museum in Moscow that displays personal belongings, photographs, manuscripts, and recordings of the Russian singer-songwriter across several exhibition spaces. The collection includes instruments, notes, and documents from different periods of his life and artistic career.
The museum was founded in 1996 after years of collecting and support from Russian fans. Its establishment under the direction of Vysotsky's son Nikita made it possible to bring together his artistic legacy in one place.
The space displays guitar performances and theater costumes from the Soviet artistic scene of the 1960s and 1970s. These objects show how artistic expression found ways around official restrictions.
The museum is located near Taganskaya metro station and welcomes visitors Tuesday through Sunday, with extended hours on Thursdays until 9 p.m. Plan enough time to explore the different exhibition areas, especially if you want to read about the materials in detail.
The collection includes the guitar Vysotsky played during his 1976 Casablanca concert and rare bootleg recordings of his censored songs. These items show how his music spread far beyond official channels.
