TULA REGIONAL MUSEUM

About 140,000 objects at the Tula Regional Museum, founded in 1937, tell about the area’s history and nature. This includes Tula samovars, collections of rural and urban clothing from the 19th century and the Filimonovo toys made by local craftsmen
Personal items that belonged to writers native to Tula and surrounding areas are also amongst the objects.
  On the basis of those collections, the museum created between 1989 and 2004 the Tula Samovar exhibitions, the house of Russian writer and physician Vikenty Veresayev, a museum to music specialist Nikolay Beloborodov, the Demidov merchant dynasty’s necropolis as well as a museum of Russian Imperial Navy Rear Admiral Vsevolod Rudnev, known for his participation in the Russo-Japanese War of 1904-1905.
  Construction of the building that houses the museum finished in 1799. It was one of the city’s largest buildings at that time and belonged to Beloborodov family.
