Museum of History and Everyday Life of the City of Grodno
80 reviews
July 16
The museum is interesting in its own way. There are a lot of things, just like at any flea market. You will definitely find things from your past in this picturesque chaos. Such places make you think about devouring time, which in itself is useful. The colorful owner of the museum will conduct a tour himself and tell you about the most interesting things. Of course, there are probably no such museums anymore, but at a good flea market, old things are in their natural habitat. And they are clearly cramped in the museum.

The place is a must-visit:
1. Because of the owner of the museum, who keeps amazing stories about Grodno and Belarus in general. He can be tormented with questions - which he will be happy to answer.
2. For those who like to find something unusual at a flea market
3. For those who like to plunge into the unusual atmosphere of antiquity.
The impressions of the place are amazing - the owner is a living legend!

An interesting and colorful character is the owner of this flea market museum.
With clear blue eyes, a sense of humor and a trimmed beard. The museum has the fruits of 74 years of collecting various things. A kind of flea market/flea market/junk yard.
Oh, his exhibits would be placed on a large territory - there would be no price for such a "museum of the past" ... but none of the authorities are interested in this, unfortunately....
I recommend going, watching, listening to the old dude's stories.. for hipsters and free people!

If there was an opportunity, they would have put a minus one star. Don't waste your time on empty chatter and mountains of garbage. Janusz just loves money very much, because for 15 rubles. you are ‘raped’ from a person by the musty, stagnant smell of junk and scraps of incoherent nonsense. Stink and dirt. The suspicious-looking individuals present in the narrow aisles are probably the main suppliers of ‘exhibits’ for the so-called museum. The fairy tale that Janusz cannot find a place for a museum is not justified: 7 people (on average per day) for 15 rubles. multiply even by 25 days = 2626 rubles. Finding a place to rent in Grodno and paying for it is not a problem. During the arrangement and sorting, the flow of visitors will increase many times more, and therefore it is not expensive to pay rent. Despite the fact that Janusz has both a son and a daughter, entrepreneurs, respectively, everything can be easily organized. It's just that Janusz doesn't need it, he's too lazy to do anything, he's comfortable climbing through the cracks between the junk in 5-10 minutes, getting money and covering it all with originality. There are really interesting things that I would like to consider in a human way, and not stoop to the state of a homeless person. A tip for marketers: you can leave a branded item for your company, perhaps potential customers will see it, an example of Myloverberry (their box has already become an exhibit of the ‘museum’).

If you come to Grodno for a couple of days and you have limited time, then you should not waste it on this museum. In fact, it's just a dump that many old people have in their dachas. There are some interesting items, but they are mixed up with all sorts of new plastic garbage and made so that they cannot be seen. The "guide" himself is a grandfather, the son of collaborators, whose parents worked for the Germans in Grodno during the war. His tour costs 10 rubles per person, while he did not tell anything interesting. There were some boring senile life stories that any grandfather will tell you for free, and a few facts about Grodno churches and synagogues that are easily found on the Internet. At the same time, reading about it on the Internet is really better than listening to the stories of this old man, because the thread of the narrative is constantly being lost, the "guide" constantly jumps from topic to topic, forgetting what he just said. In general, there is only one name from the museum here, if you really want to walk through normal museums in Grodno, then do not be deceived by this location.

You need to go to the Janusz Parulis Museum first of all for communication and emotions. There are few such cranks in the world, and I sincerely believe that they need to be supported. The eyes and brain love variety. And if you are used to wandering around museums where everything is behind glass, you can't touch it with your hands, there are guards sitting, then maybe you are just a boring person ;) I can't imagine at all how his wealth can be placed and organized somewhere. Then it will no longer be the original museum of the history of Grodno. Janusz tells a lot of stories, you can chat, ask questions. Treats children well) in general, come. If you are a bright and creative person, you will find something to admire.

A wonderful private museum! The most interesting person owns it, the narrator is from God. He breathes warmth and fatherly wisdom from him. I advise everyone to visit! You will be satisfied

We stopped at this museum on the way to the Kaluzhskaya Church. The price is not listed anywhere. A very talkative grandfather began to talk about everything. Everything is in piles on the street, as I opened the garage, there is nowhere to set foot from the junk. This is not a museum! It's a dump! We decided to leave, so my grandfather called us "scoundrels", demanded money for renting his house for a museum. We do not recommend visiting, you will only waste time and money in vain. There is also a great risk of bringing "new insect friends" home.

The owner tells an interesting story, there is charisma and knowledge! The collection is good, but as a museum employee, it's just sad to see how everything is piled up. The courtyard is cute, like in a fairy tale about Pippi. The museum will really leave an impression and it is unique)

Очень аутентичное место в городе, колоритный хранитель-директор музея старик Януш. Он проводит экскурсии в музее сам показывая и рассказывая о экспонатах. Его экскурсии сильно отличаются от класических экскурсий😁, но от этого они только интересней. Видно что человек вдохновеный и увлечённый . Много экспонатов , которые знакомы нам из нашей бытовой прошлой жизни , и вроде бы ты ещё вчера видел этот "бабушкин ковер с оленями" на стене у своей бабушки... но и бабушки уже давно нет, и ковёр её за ненадобностью пылится на чердаке старого дома. Ходишь по музею и память цепляется за якоря из детства, и волной уносит в прошлое, и где то фоном в голове всплывает песня " на дальней станции сойду".
Короче пока не расплакалась 😁😁😁 , рекомендасьён к посещению музея !

The "Museum of Everyday Life" is just a name. In fact, we see a whole house full of all sorts of junk. The owner of the "museum" tells all sorts of random stories, and it is not always possible to verify their authenticity.
10-15 rubles for visiting this house with junk is expensive.
For this reason, I do not recommend spending a day at this place.

One conversation with Janusz is already worth a lot. We can already say that we visited this museum for a reason! Of course, the territory is not large, but there are many exhibits. Therefore, it will be very difficult to see everything. But if you have a lot of free time, you can help Janusz clean up. And also some things can be exchanged for money)))))))

The price of the museum apparently differs depending on whether the owner of the museum liked you and where you came from, apparently we did not like it, so the price was 15 rubles, which is very expensive. The museum itself is just a collection of different junk

In my subjective opinion, this "museum" can only be called a garbage heap. For which the owner wants 15 rubles from the nose. If you managed to visit there, do not forget to be disinfected from bedbugs and fleas, you will have them 100%.

Интересный и необычный музей. Больше как склад старыз и не очень вещей, предметов быта, игрушек, техники. Дедушка - хозяин рассказывает о своей молодости и жизни)) Билет оплатили походом в магазин вместе с ним, продуктами и чуть покрепче)))

A unique place. This is not a museum, this is a secret place where the timekeeper lives. A former dude (actually still is), Grandpa Janusz will tell amazing kind stories. We were left with pleasant impressions! Be sure to go

Место интересное, рассказывают много всего, экскурсоводы и гиды столько не скажут) некоторых вещей нет даже в музеях) идти туда надо с достаточным запасом времени. Хозяин музея очень приятный человек, любит вступить в диалог с посетителями)

Если бы это действительно был музей. Это частный дом с кучей старых вещей времён СССР и более позднего периода, да ещё и стоимость будь здоров - 15руб. с человека. Всё навалено друг на друга. Старик, хозяин, довольно колоритная личность). Ему бы всё это рассортировать и, действительно, сделать меэузеем - будет классно!

Haphazard storage of exhibits spoils the whole impression. It feels like a dump. It's unrealistic to look closer at interesting objects, you can't get through, everything is in the dust. It's a pity, there are a lot of decent things from different times. The owner is a good storyteller, good health to the old man!

We arrived at work time, the entrance was closed. There is a sign at the entrance with the phone number you need to call to open it. We were on the phone for 30 minutes, and no one answered us. Next to it is a sign with a work schedule, according to which it was clear that the museum was supposed to work, but for some reason it did not work. It left a very unpleasant impression.

Частный, с позволения сказать, музей. Колоритный хозяин, многое знает, если бы еще больше и подробнее рассказывал, было бы супер... еще очень даже не помешает систематизировать коллекцию, да, она большая и разнообразная, но платить 10 рублей за то, чтобы посетить несколько комнат, с пола до потолка заваленных разнообразными вещами, большей частью советских, порой почти бессистемно и с экскурсией галопом по европам (хоть и интересно, но буквально по несколько фраз на комнату) - не... в таком виде оно того не стоит...
Для тех, кто посещает музеи с такими же названиями в других городах - не ведитесь на название, тут с большего демонстрация частной коллекции вещей эпохи СССР (из истории Гродно - достаточного много интересных вещей, произведенных фабрикой Неман)
P.S. плюс звездочку за рекомендацию чебуречной неподалеку - действительно вкусно, спасибо =)

Интересное место , если в душе́ вы барахольщик. Ежели вы музейный эстет - это место не для вас. Тут вы не найдете экспонатов аккуратно выставленных по своим местам, нет. Здесь царит хаос! Все свалено одно на одно, зато можно трогать руками. В целом впечатление положительное. И хозяин музея интересный увлеченный человек, но одному человеку не в силах сдвинуть гору. А если сделать из этого места действительно музей, с упорядоченной экспозицией, придется приложить огромное усилие!
Много интересных вещей, которые к сожалению наверное уже там и умрут. Потому что время берет свое....

Цена не оправдывает впечатления. За 15 минутную экскурсию по узким улочкам между свалеными в кучу антикварными и не очень вещами платить 10р, ну такое. Мужчина-владелец интересный, с большим жизненным опытом. Но если б все его богатства были в более выставочном виде и экскурсия занимала больше времени, было бы лучше.

Хозяин музея весьма коллоритный персонаж. Однако несмотря на наличие действительно интересных вещей (старые банкноты, пару вывесок, несколько картин, стеклянная утварь), сам музей представляет собой груду ширпотреба (спинеры, детские машинки, какой-то мусор). Уровень экскурсии зависит от настроения хозяина и насколько Вы ему интересны.

Неоднозначное место, вроде как понравилось, а вроде как и не совсем. Очень много предметов-экспонатов, но они в кучах, что больше похоже на свалку. Посещение нам обошлось в 10 рублей с человека!
