Museum “Taltsy”

The museum is based on wooden architecture of the 17th–20th centuries from small towns, villages, and settlements of the Irkutsk region. Here you can learn about the traditions of the peoples of the Baikal area by exploring four recreated zones: Russian, Buryat, Evenki, and Tofalar. The southern wall of the wooden Ilimsky fort attracts particular attention, including the large Savior travel tower and the Kazan gate church of the 17th century.
