Museum of Cosmonautics

Learning and seeing the items on display was enough, but actual items belonging to Yuri Gagarian was another level. The museum privide extensive display of Russia space program. I leaned a lot from each of cosmonaughts' sacrifice throughout history. It's not a DC's air and space e museum but a charming space to visit to understand the struggle and heroes of making the program work.

Very interesting museum on the history of Russian space exploration from Yuri Gagarin to the present (our visit was in 2018). Fascinating structure with a future-oriented needle piercing the sky, very comprehensive material display and cringeworthy propagandistic poster of the Soviet era to provide a “flavor” of the space race political and historical framework.

Great place to meet with history ! It’s worth the visit. Supper big, great service and very organized highly recommend it

A fascinating and well-curated museum with many original artefacts from the history of space exploration. There’s so much to see and learn — from early spacecraft to personal items of cosmonauts. It’s a must-visit for anyone interested in science, technology, or history. I do wish there were more English descriptions for international visitors and a better selection of souvenirs, as the current shop feels limited compared to the richness of the exhibits.

Beautiful and modern museum. If you have any interest in anything space related, this place has it all. Most things have English explanations as well but some are Russian only

This museum is very big and attractive specially for me that most of the time track the space station and astronomical events, beside that, this museum is not ancient and historical, it's high tech and modern comparing to other museum in the city. I watched very interesting objects, vehicles and instruments that before that I watched them in just photos and videos, some places in the museum takes human to the space and you think about living there as a scientist.

The monument is great and accessiblevia the stairs by the side of the museum for free. There are statues of cosmonauts a bit furtherat the park.

Mind-blowing experience! From the first Sputnik to real space suits — you literally touch history. The interactive exhibits make you feel like part of the Soviet space dream. Great for both kids and adults. 🚀✨
