Эссе / Музей / Выставка (на англ.)

  A museum is a storehouse of knowledge. It is the main place from where we can learn and even see history. It includes the artifacts, skeletons, paintings and a lot of other things with a historycal importance, which help people understand what happened in the past. The last museum I visited was the Museum of Etnography and Natural History. There I had the chance to see all the flora and fauna of our country in its evolution since today, as well as a lot of ancient objects which were used by our people years ago. It was a great experience to see all these things, to hear their stories told by our guide and to imagine how our country was 100 years ago, so Iearned a lot just from one visit.
  In my opinion museums are one of the best educational institutions, which allow us to connect to previous life experience. They are even better than books, because there we can not only imagine but also see and touch, and these are the best ways of learning.

The Museum Madame Tussaud’s.
One of the most famous and popular museums in the world is  Museum Madame Tussaud’s of London.
You’ll find museum of Madame Tussaud’s in the centre of London in Marylebone Road, just one minute’s walk from Baket Street underground station. 
Marie Tussaud (1761–1850) was born Marie Grosholtz in Strasbourg, France. Her mother worked as a housekeeper for Dr. Philippe Curtius, who was a physician skilled in wax modelling. Curtius taught Tussaud the art of wax modelling. The first exhibition of Curtius’ waxworks was shown in 1770, and attracted a large audience. 
Tussaud created her first wax figure, of Voltaire, in 1777. 
One of the main attractions of the museum is the Chamber of Horrors. This part of the exhibition included victims of the French Revolution and newly created figures of murderers and other criminals.
Madame Tussaud’s wax museum has now grown to become a major tourist attraction in London, incorporating (until recently) the London Planetarium in its west wing. It has expanded with branches in Amsterdam, Berlin, Las Vegas, New York City, Hong Kong, Shanghai and Washington DC, with an additional location scheduled to open in Hollywood in 2009. Today’s wax figures at Tussauds include historical and royal figures, film stars, sports stars and famous murderers.

The Goncharov Museum is the most famous building in Ulyanovsk. Construction of a red brick with a memorial plaque and chimes is the most famous sight of Ulyanovsk. The official name is the Historical and Memorial Center-Museum of IA Goncharov. Here was born and lived IA. Goncharov. Initially, the house looked different: there was no clock tower, and it was two-story. The real house of Goncharovs was partially preserved in the corner part of the building, where a memorial plaque is installed. The clock on the tower of the house used to decorate the bell tower of the Savior-Ascension Cathedral where Goncharova was baptized. The opening of the museum took place in 2012 on the day of the writer’s 200th anniversary. Since the museum is dedicated to the writer, the basis of the collection is the personal belongings of Goncharov and his entourage. The exposition includes various periods of the writer’s life: childhood, education in St. Petersburg, Goncharov’s journey on the Pallada frigate with the model of the ship, and also the halls devoted to his novels Oblomov and Obryv. The third floor is a museum exposition of the clock, here the mechanism of the city clock is installed.                                                                                                                                                            Перевод:                                                             Музей Гончарова – это самое известное здание в Ульяновске. Постройка из красного кирпича с мемориальной доской и курантами – самый знаменитый вид Ульяновска. Официальное название – Историко-мемориальный центр-музей И. А. Гончарова. Здесь родился и жил И. А. Гончаров. Изначально дом выглядел иначе: не было башни с часами, и он был двухэтажным. Настоящий дом Гончаровых сохранился частично в угловой части здания, где и установлена мемориальная доска. Часы на башенке дома ранее украшали колокольню Спасо-Вознесенского собора, где крестили Гончарова. Открытие музея состоялось в 2012 году в день 200-летия писателя. Так как музей посвящен писателю, основу коллекции составляют личные вещи Гончарова и его окружения. В экспозицию включены различные периоды жизни писателя: детство, обучение в Петербурге, путешествие Гончарова на фрегате «Паллада» с моделью корабля, также залы, посвященные его романам «Обломов» и «Обрыв». Третий этаж – музейная экспозиция часов, здесь же установлен механизм городских часов.                                                                                            ПОКОРОЧЕ НЕ СМОГЛА.
