People's Museum of Moscow Metro

The People's Museum of Moscow Metro is a transport museum in Khamovniki District that documents the development of the city's metro system. The collection includes operating equipment, staff uniforms, ticketing systems, tokens, and scale models that illustrate how the system was built and functions.

The museum was established in 1967 and documents the history of Moscow Metro, whose first line began service in 1935. The exhibits cover major development phases and technical advances that shaped the system over the decades.

The exhibits reveal how the metro shaped daily life in Moscow and connected people across the city. Objects on display show the system's role as both a transportation hub and a shelter for residents.

The museum is located on the third floor of Vystavochnaya metro station and offers free admission. You can reach it directly through the station entrance without additional walking.

Visitors can test their skills on authentic metro control equipment and experience operating procedures through an interactive driver cabin simulator. This hands-on experience lets you understand what a metro operator does each day.
