Museum in Kaliningrad Oblast, Russia.
This small local museum is definitely not among those that must be visited. But in case one is about to see the other Curonian Spit sights such as, for instance, Dancing Forest, sand dunes or the world oldest ornithological station so why not to drop in there as well.
The museum collection dedicated to the nature, ethnography, forestry of the Curonian Spit includes also archaeological finds from the Viking Age settlement of Korallen Berg and flat-grave cemetery Kovrovo (VIII-XI cent.).
Opening hours: Wednesday to Sunday 09-17 (box-office: 09-16:30), closed: Monday, Tuesday
Phone: +7 (40150) 45119
Admission: Adults - 50 rub., Children - 35 rub.
