Muzeĭ "Kvartira Pushkina na Arbate"

Pushkin's Apartment on Arbat is a historic residence where the Russian poet lived during 1831, housing his personal possessions, manuscripts, and original furnishings throughout its rooms. The layout and contents reflect the daily life and work environment of an early 19th century literary figure in Moscow.

The apartment building was constructed as a residential home in the early 19th century to house Moscow's educated classes. Pushkin's year-long residence there elevated it to lasting importance in Russian literary history.

The apartment shows how a writer of Pushkin's status lived in early 19th century Moscow, with its rooms arranged as a family home rather than a grand residence.

The rooms are modest in size and closely arranged, so moving through them at a measured pace allows you to absorb the details. Guided tours in various languages help explain the historical context and literary connections throughout the space.

The poet's desk remains at its original location in the study, offering a tangible sense of where his most famous works took shape. This preserved workspace provides an intimate glimpse into the daily creative routines of a major literary figure.
