Tomsk Oblast Local Museum

The Tomsk Oblast Local Museum is a regional museum housed in an Empire style building in Tomsk. Its collections display regional artifacts, traditional craftsmanship, and the industrial development of the oblast since its establishment.

The museum collects objects from ancient settlements along the Tom River and documents human presence in Western Siberia over thousands of years. These collections reveal how the region was inhabited and developed over long periods.

The display features handcrafted items and clothing from the different peoples who have lived in the region for centuries. You see hand-woven textiles and everyday objects that show how these communities actually lived.

The museum is located in central Tomsk and is easily accessible on foot. The exhibitions are arranged to allow visitors to move freely between different collection areas.

The museum preserves ancient rock carvings that were transferred from original art sites in the region. These petroglyphs show how early people expressed their thoughts and stories through images.
