Museum of the Great Patriotic War

The Museum of the Great Patriotic War anchors the Victory Park memorial complex on Poklonnaya Hill. Its galleries cover the Soviet experience of the Second World War through documents, dioramas, military equipment, and memorial halls.

The outdoor displays of wartime aircraft and vehicles add scale to the visit. It pairs naturally with a walk through Victory Park, but the museum is substantial enough to justify time on its own.
