Murmansk Regional Museum of Art, Art museum in central Murmansk, Russia.
The Murmansk Regional Museum of Art occupies the first stone building constructed in the city, situated near Five Corners Square on Kominterna Street. The collection holds paintings by Russian artists from multiple centuries and northern craft works.
The museum began as an exhibition space in 1989 and became a regional art museum in 1990. Artworks transferred from the Local Lore Museum at that time formed the foundation of the collection.
The museum displays works by regional artists from the Kola Peninsula who reflect their local perspective through art. Visitors can see how creators from this northern region represent their surroundings and experiences.
The museum operates Wednesday through Sunday and displays its collection in well-maintained galleries. Visitors can view works at their own pace and explore the historic building itself.
This is the northernmost art museum in Russia and displays works alongside pieces by known artists such as Ivan Aivazovsky and Salvador Dali. This blend of regional talent and international names makes it a special destination.
