Branch office of the Tver State United Museum.

History of creating museum
On June 3, 1972, the A.S. Pushkin Museum was opened in Torzhok, which entered the extensive network of the poet's museums as the first museum of A.S. Pushkin's travels. The city of Torzhok is located on the main road of Russia Moscow — Petersburg, along which the poet passed many times.

The museum is located in an old noble mansion of the late XVIII century, where the Olenins lived. P.A. Olenin, the son of the president of the Academy of Arts A. N. Olenin, was married to a Novotorzhsky noblewoman M.S. Lvova. A.S. Pushkin was a visitor to the literary salon of A.N. Olenin in St. Petersburg. The museum has restored the interior of the living room of a noble house of the XIX century, as well as preserved portraits of Peter and Maria Olenins, personal belongings, a family heirloom — a buckshot bullet from the Borodino field.

Expositions
The museum's exposition allows you to present the path of A.S. Pushkin along the St. Petersburg-Moscow highway: ancient maps of roads of Russia, road objects, horse harnesses, Valdai bells, images of postal stations, inns, autographs of letters of the poet to relatives and friends describing road events, Pushkin sketches of landscapes and road scenes — help the museum visitor to be transported to Pushkin an era.

The exposition is based on a project developed by the staff of the Pushkin State Museum in Moscow. The creative team of employees of the Tver State United Museum, headed by L.A. Kazarskaya, has created an exposition dedicated to A.S. Pushkin's travels along the St. Petersburg - Moscow highway, his road impressions and their reflection in his work.

The museum also hosts interactive programs:

1) A trip along the sovereign's road, where the participants of the program will feel like travelers of the XIX century.

2) Visiting a fairy tale, where guests will go on a trip to the Lukomorye.

3) We'd better hurry to the ball, where the participants of the program will get acquainted with the life of the nobility, the basics of etiquette and fashion of the XIX century.

The museum hosts a sightseeing tour "The Petersburg-Moscow tract in the life and work of A.S. Pushkin", an interactive tour "The Journey of A. S. Pushkin along the "Sovereign's Road".
