Mouse Museum, Folk museum in Myshkin, Russia.
The Myshkin National Ethnographic Museum contains 2,000 mouse-related items from multiple countries, displayed in a wooden house near the Volga River.
The museum, established in 1990, relates to a legend where a mouse saved a prince from a snake, leading to the naming of Myshkin town.
The collection features mice crafted from various materials using different artistic techniques, representing cultural expressions from numerous nations across the globe.
Four additional museums operate nearby, including the Museum of Navigation, Museum of Unique Machines, Museum of Wooden Architecture, and a museum about vodka inventor Pyotr Smirnov.
Every ten years, during the Chinese Year of the Rat, the town organizes a major celebration, with the 2008 event receiving a visit from President Dmitry Medvedev.
