Five years ago in Russia appeared very unusualMuseum, you can even say - exceptional. He shakes his exhibits the imagination of visitors. This is a scientific and technical museum of the history of the tractor in Cheboksary. At the end of October 2016, he celebrates his small, but still significant for the Republic of Chuvashia and the country as a whole historical anniversary.
The tractor museum opened Cheboksary not by accident.This is not just a city of Chuvashia, part of the Volga region, on a geographical map of Russia. It is called the pearl and cultural capital (since 2003) of the Volga region. This is a city with a long history, rich culture and its traditions. It is recognized as one of the most well-appointed (2001, 2013), clean and green (2006, 2007) subjects of Russia. In addition, the capital of Chuvashia is one of the centers of domestic tractor construction.
It must be said that tractor construction is an integral branch of Russian engineering. Products are finished tractor, as well as all the necessary parts and parts for them.
In our country there is a concern "Tractorplants". This is a machine-building industrial association of companies since 2006. These include 25 enterprises around the world, among which 10 are from the Chuvash Republic (and 9 are located in Cheboksary):
And here are tractor companies?The thing is: the concern "Tractor Plants" took a direct part in 2011 in creating a republican landmark in the capital of Chuvashia. The president of the concern, Mikhail Bolotin, proposed to open a tractor museum in this city (Cheboksary). They responded to the proposal and supported: the Russian Engineering Union, the Russian Culture Foundation and the Russian Technologies State Corporation. This museum in Russia has become exceptional in its own way; there is nowhere else like this: it is both specialized (tractor construction), educational, and educational (it explains and informs anyone who’s interested in the history easily and reliably).
Approximately 1.5 thousand square meters of museumsettled down on Prospekt Mira, 1. Tourists who came closer to get acquainted with Cheboksary, as well as local residents of the republic (who are new for the first time and who once again) flock here. The administration takes a rather active position in communicating with the audience and offers interesting programs. For example, the “weekend club” offers both adults and children to actively and very entertainingly: students can not only learn about the history of engineering development (in the world, Russia) and see with their own eyes different brands of tractors, but also take part personally in. .. tractor test drive! Both young and old will be happy to test the radio-controlled models of tractors, assemble their thematic equipment from Lego, take part in various competitions, watch movies, and on their own with a sledgehammer knock out a print depicting the very first tractor in the world (and take it with you ). Here you can get a lot of impressions, ride on a local museum attraction. The great advantage is the opportunity to touch and touch the exhibits (for example, it’s great to climb into the legendary “Belarus” - its name is often confused, apparently due to consonance with the name of the country, so the people know it more as a tractor “Belarus”), sit inside cabins, take photos.
Another undoubted advantage is that in this place you can hold children's parties (for example, birthdays). Amazing museum!
