Irkutsk Regional Historic Memorial Decembrists' Museum, Historical museum complex in Irkutsk, Russia.

The Decembrists' Museum occupies two estate houses featuring period furnishings, personal artifacts, and historical documents from exiled Russian nobles.

Following their failed uprising against Tsar Nicholas I in 1825, many Decembrist leaders were sent to exile in Siberia, settling in Irkutsk after their sentences.

The museum exhibits demonstrate how exiled Decembrists introduced European customs, education, and artistic traditions to the Siberian region during the 19th century.

Located across two buildings on Ulitsa Timiryazeva, the museum welcomes visitors Tuesday through Sunday from 10:00 to 18:00 with guided tours in multiple languages.

Prince Sergey Volkonsky's estate contains original furniture from his Paris residence, transported to Siberia by his wife who voluntarily joined him in exile.

Location: городской округ Иркутск

Opening Hours: Mardi-Dimanche 10:00-18:00
