      🖼 Museum of Motherhood and Infancy

      Красногорский округ, с. Ильинское, ул. Ленина, 3, стр. 1

      A museum in the 1892 maternity-shelter building next to Elizabeth Feodorovna's former Ilyinskoye infirmary; created in 2023 by the Elisavetinsko-Sergievskoye Educational Society foundation, with exhibits including items from the Zvenigorod Museum-Reserve's collections.

      • The museum opened on 27 April 2023 as Russia's first museum of motherhood and childhood.
      • It occupies a maternity shelter building built in 1892 with Grand Duke Sergei Alexandrovich's personal funds.
      • The prince decided to found the shelter after his brother's wife, Princess Alexandra, died in childbirth.
      • The shelter helped women in labour from Ilyinskoye and nearby villages free of charge, and after the revolution a maternity hospital worked here until the 1970s.
      • The exhibition has more than 400 items; the installations include a grand-ducal wet nurse with an infant and an obstetric office of the early 20th century.
