National Museum of the Republic of Bashkortostan

The National Museum of the Republic of Bashkortostan occupies a historic building in central Ufa and presents exhibitions on nature, archaeology, regional history, and ethnography. The interior is organized into distinct departments that visitors can explore through various routes and displays.

The museum was established in 1864 as an educational institution to collect and preserve knowledge about the region. Over time it grew and eventually became a national museum dedicated to documenting the history and identity of Bashkortostan.

The museum displays traditional crafts, clothing, and objects that reveal how Bashkir and other regional peoples lived and expressed their identity. These collections show daily practices and customs that continue to shape local life today.

The museum is centrally located and accessible by public transportation; visitors should allow time to explore multiple departments. Guided tours in several languages are available to help you understand the collections more fully.

The museum preserves rare archaeological finds from the region, including artifacts from the medieval and early modern periods. These discoveries offer insights into civilizations that existed long before modern Bashkortostan.
