The Elabuga Museum-Reserve invites citizens and guests to new halls

15 September 2017, Friday

The exposition "History of the postal business" tells about the most interesting facts from the history of Russian mail, created in the XIII century and being the oldest in Europe. Postal road maps, the end of the XIX - early XX centuries, a barometer of the beginning of the XX century, a kashovka of the pre-revolutionary period and many other things tell about the stages of  post development. It is symbolic that the exposition opened in the year when the postal station in Yelabuga turns 220 years old.

In the second hall, "Glory to the Soviet people", the museum's employees offer to return to the recent past. There are rare exhibits - a truck GAZ-51, a field kitchen of the model of 1948, a manual fire pump of the 50s of the XX century ... The hall displays the history of all-Union shock construction projects, the pioneer movement. A separate section is devoted to oil production in Yelabuga region.
