What to Expect and Is It Worth Visiting
This museum is the largest and oldest in the resorts of the Caucasian Mineral Waters. The building itself is a historical object, the former first hotel in the resort. The museum has a huge collection of exhibits, including archaeological finds, books, documents, photographs, household items and decorative arts. In our opinion, this is a must-visit place to start exploring the city. Ideally, the museum should be visited with a guided tour, which is offered when buying tickets, but even without it it will be very interesting and informative. We recommend that you definitely visit the Pyatigorsk Museum of Local Lore, and if possible, first of all, even before exploring other interesting places of the resort.
