Museum of the History of the Murmansk Shipping Company, Ulitsa Volodarskogo, Murmansk Oblast, Russia
Comprehensive exhibits at Murmansk’s oldest museum include one on Sami culture and handicrafts, a vast natural-history section with all manner of taxidermied beasts and Wait For Me – an exhibition on the fierce defence of the north during WWII.
Delve also into the history of Arctic exploration, contemplate the region’s mysterious ancient stone labyrinths, and get nostalgic over prehistoric radios and Zenit cameras in the ‘Made in the USSR’ section.
