Cosmos Museum

The Cosmos Museum is housed in a former church building and presents over 450 items related to space exploration across five exhibition rooms. The collection documents decades of space missions and technological developments from this region's contributions to the cosmos.

The museum was established in 1979 as a collaborative effort between local founders and scientific institutions. Its collection centers on missions and innovations developed during the Soviet and post-Soviet era of space programs.

The collection reflects the significant role that space exploration has played in this region's identity and pride. Visitors encounter artifacts that represent decades of achievement in advancing human knowledge of the cosmos.

The museum is open on most days of the week and offers regular access to its collection for visitors of all ages. Plan enough time to explore all five exhibition rooms and their contents at a comfortable pace.

A physical pendulum in the museum demonstrates Earth's rotation through its continuous motion, giving visitors direct understanding of planetary physics. This interactive element makes astronomical concepts tangible and engaging for anyone who observes it closely.
