Lapidarium, Archeological museum in Kerch, Russia.

The Lapidarium contains more than 2200 stone artifacts including Greek inscriptions, sculptures, architectural elements, and ancient gravestones from the Bosporan kingdom.

The collection started between 1810 and 1820 with Paul Du Brux's personal assemblage named Drevnehranilisce and expanded through various additions until 1917.

Stone monuments in the museum reflect the customs and practices of ancient Bosporan cities through memorial sculptures, religious objects, and marble fragments.

The museum welcomes visitors from 10:00 AM to 4:00 PM every day except Mondays, offering direct access to archaeological artifacts from the Kerch peninsula.

The International School of Conservation of Stone operates at the museum since 2002, bringing together specialists from Russia, Ukraine, and Denmark.
