Museum of Marina and Anastasia Tsvetaeva, Alexandrov, Literary museum in Alexandrov, Russia
The Museum of Marina and Anastasia Tsvetaeva occupies a wooden house and stone building and displays manuscripts, photographs, and personal belongings of the two sisters. The six exhibition rooms contain antique furniture, musical instruments, and rare books, including a signed copy of John Milton.
The building was originally a Lebedev family estate and is connected to Marina Tsvetaeva's 1916 summer visit to her sister. It was converted into a museum in 1991 to preserve the legacy of the two sisters.
The rooms display everyday objects and furnishings that show how the sisters lived and what mattered to them daily. You can see their books, instruments, and personal possessions that shaped their creative life.
The museum offers guided tours and educational programs to help visitors understand the collections more fully. Visitor groups should contact ahead to arrange a tour that suits their interests.
The garden surrounding the museum features design elements that reflect themes from Marina's poetry. This thoughtfully designed landscape creates a more personal connection to her literary work.
