About

The "World of Hats" museum has become a real "sanctuary" for the most elaborate headgear from around the world that one can imagine. The museum's exhibition features more than three hundred models of hats, which have long since become a precious cultural heritage.

The collection of this unusual museum includes not only traditional wide-brimmed or high-wind hats but also rare gilded kokoshniks, as well as royal crowns. Each visitor, stepping over the threshold of the establishment, enters a vast fitting room with five halls. Each hat has its own unique and extraordinary story, which the tour guide enthusiastically shares. Thus, some headpieces are literally taken off the heads of people from far-away lands and cities, while others have been bought for a sizable sum.
