The main specialization of the museum is to display the life of the Rzhevites in the old days, their everyday life, culture, architecture, etc.

The museum is a branch of the Tver State United Museum.

History of creating museum
The museum was opened in 1916 in the building of the former city Duma, in 1917 it received the status of historical and archaeological. The museum's funds are based on the ethnographic, archaeological and art collections of the Moscow archaeologist M.S. Vorobyov (books, spinning wheels, mirrors, tools for making printed gingerbread) and archaeological materials collected in the vicinity of the city by the Rzhev local historian — the first director of the museum - P.F. Simson.

During the Great Patriotic War, the museum was completely looted, the building was destroyed. In the 1960s, a local history exposition was opened in the building of the Okovetsky Church. In 1977, the Rzhev Museum became a branch of the Kalinin State United Historical, Architectural and Literary Museum. The first exposition of the branch was dedicated to the military history of the Rzhev region. Since 1998, the museum has been located in two buildings. In the first one there were household items of the XVII — XX centuries, and in the second — items related to the history of Rzhev in the Great Patriotic War. In this building in 2005, on the occasion of the 60th anniversary of the Victory, a diorama (thematic exposition) "The Battle of Rzhev 1942-1943" was opened, which reflects a new look at military operations in the area of the Rzhev-Vyazma bridgehead. By the 90th anniversary of the museum, a local history exposition on the ancient history of the city was opened in the merchant house of the Nemilovs of the XVIII century.
