State Historical and Memorial Preserve The Battle of Stalingrad

Reviewed By heysoph9 - Glenroy, Australia

We got the English audio guide at the entry – this was a really good museum. Some of the displays were really immersive and of course the big panorama up the top. Must-see when in Volgograd, I really enjoyed it. The exhibits were great and I learnt a lot about the town's history in the Battle of Stalingrad.

Armoury Chamber

A dazzling array of treasures from the 4th to the 20th century are housed in this Kremlin museum, including thrones and carriages of the tsars, the works of Moscow silver and goldsmiths, arms, jewels, precious Russian Easter eggs and other Russian and foreign decorative arts.

Reviewed By RitaC651 - Melbourne, Australia

We were overwhelmed by the treasures we saw and were surprised that such an amazing collection survived Russia’s turbulent history. Hundreds of objects made of gold and silver were encrusted with gems. The gold carriages were unbelievable. The collection of crowns was my favourite. So many display cases were filled with items that showed the wealth and lavish lifestyle of the Tsars. There were displays of clothes worn by the royal family, some famous Faberge eggs and many other items. Everything was beautifully styled. There were military uniforms, weapons and horse armoury that were all heavily decorated. There was also a number of religious items. This museum shows the connection between the wealth and power of the Tzar, the church and the state. No wonder there was a revolution in Russia.
