    A very beautiful museum with interesting exhibits, many drawings and engravings. It’s also a place where you can understand what old Moscow is like. The museum is really beautiful - the design of the display cases creates the feeling of an expensive, rich exhibition, everything is so solemn. Cozy courtyard

    I have been living in Moscow for thirty years, but this is my first time in the Herzen House-Museum. Yes, we have forgotten who Herzen is, and many still don’t know who he is. Do you, readers, know the name of Herzen’s father? What about your mother's last name? So who is he, this Herzen? After taking a tour of the museum, I realized that Herzen is the Navalny of the era of Nikolai Pavlovich. It was he, according to Lenin, who developed revolutionary agitation. Those who don’t understand this should go to the house-museum of Alexander Ivanovich Herzen. And a wonderful guide - Svetlana Romanovna.

    An example of the life of a man who, at the age of 12(!), vowed to fight for freedom and did not distract himself from this for a minute throughout his life. And the Russian slave cart is still there. Who is guilty? - Herzen asks us through the centuries.

    (Translated by Google) Cozy museum-mansion, interiors restored with furniture of that period! Many exhibits were donated by the descendants of Herzen, extremely friendly staff. Out of love for their work, they commented on some exhibits free of charge!) I highly recommend, a small minute for 40 visits (Original) Уютный музей-особняк,интерьеры восстановлены мебелью того периода!Много экспонатов подарено потомками Герцена,крайне дружелюбный персонал.Из-за любви к своей работе безвозмездно комментировали некоторые экспонаты!)Крайне рекомендую,небольшой мин на 40 посещения

    (Translated by Google) A wonderful museum that re-introduced A.I. Herzen. Friendly staff, ready to tell all the details of the life of a writer. (Original) Прекрасный музей, который заново познакомил с А.И Герценом. Приветливые сотрудники, готовые рассказать все подробности жизни писателя.

    Good place: calm, quiet and cozy. Attended a classical music concert - pass+; The downsides are that tickets are for cash only, there are no POS terminals, there is no buffet, there are no vending machines with food.

    (Translated by Google) Great guides! They came and came as guests. There is something to see. And the fate of A.I. Herzen, of course, is interesting ... (Original) Прекрасные экскурсоводы! Пришли и попали как в гости. Есть, что посмотреть. И судьба у А.И.Герцена, конечно, интересная...

  • 5/5 Tututs T. 5 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) The museum occupies a small area, but what kind of events are held there .. By chance in the evening passed by the museum and saw the announcement of the creative evening of the Avant-guard Leontief. In the room, among the exhibits, Avangard Nikolaevich read Chekhov .... It's just miraculous. (Original) Музей занимает небольшую площадь, но какие мероприятия там проводятся.. Случайно вечером проходила мимо музея и увидела анонс творческого вечера Авангарда Леонтьева. В комнате, среди экспонатов, Авангард Николаевич читал Чехова... . Это просто чудестно.

    A remarkable little museum that was tastefully renovated. The guide could speak English and French, what a delight to hear her explanations! When most other musea in the vicinity were closed on the least Friday of the month ("cleaning day"), this museum was open and free of charge! Upon entering the premises, you have to use their shoe covers.

  • 4/5 Екатерина �. 4 years ago on Google • 116 reviews
    The name of Herzen has become overgrown with cliches. That the Decembrists woke him up, and he woke up Chernyshevsky and further down the chain. A visit to this museum really helped me break through the wall of stamps. It’s better to go on a guided tour, then you can learn a lot about Herzen, his family, his circle, his worldview. An amazing guide Ekaterina works here. Highly recommend.

  • 5/5 Ivan M. 2 years ago on Google • 70 reviews
    A museum dedicated to a very important and interesting Russian writer, who, unfortunately, is read much less than he deserves. A good Soviet collection - there are things that belonged to the Herzen family (which, for obvious reasons, is very rare). The new section with the history of emigration is not very convenient: the signatures are located separately from the exhibits. The atmosphere is not very friendly: visitors are so rare here that the caretakers are suspicious of everyone who enters. I hope that someday Herzen and his struggle for human rights and freedoms in Russia will be remembered, and the museum will again become relevant.

  • 3/5 Елена �. 4 months ago on Google • 3 reviews
    The museum is wonderful, but the grandmotherly caretakers who follow on your heels and don’t let you take a step to the side spoil the impression radically. I came with my students for the “Museums, Parks” Olympiad. “In the first halls there was a feeling that we were going to take away an engraving or a bust; my grandmother followed us closely and gave unnecessary advice on filling out forms. I wanted to break free from her. It’s a pity that because of such employees, the guys definitely won’t have the desire to come here again!

  • 5/5 Aleksey G. 4 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) An island of the 19th century in the middle of Moscow of the 21st century. Just turn off the street! Be sure to take an excursion, or plan your visit to a daily tour of the house. An interesting and emotional story of the guide literally plunges into the era of Herzen! (Original) Островок 19 века посреди Москвы 21 века. Достаточно лишь свернуть с улицы! Обязательно возьмите экскурсию, или спланируйте свой визит к ежедневной экскурсии по дому. Интересный и душевный рассказ экскурсовода буквально погружает в эпоху Герцена!

    (Translated by Google) the true situation was not preserved (in contrast, for example, from the house of Gorky or Chaliapin). but wonderful staff. in the house still go and beat English watches of the XIX century. informative. a beautiful garden, but not all are allowed there. very nice mansion (Original) подлинная обстановка не сохранилась (в отличие, например, от дома Горького или Шаляпина). но замечательные сотрудники. в доме до сих пор идут и бьют английские часы ХIХ века. познавательно. прекрасный сад, но туда не всех пускают. очень приятный особнячок
