Grandpa Philimon Harmonic Museum

Even boots can play in this cultural space. An unusual exhibit in the form of women's shoes, on which you can even play melodies, takes pride of place in the exposition of the "Grandpa Philimon Harmonic" Museum. There are more than 100 exhibits in total: large, small, rare and freshly made by harmonic masters, button accordions and accordions. And all of them are in their own way unique.

The "Grandpa Philimon Harmonic" Museum collected beneath one roof works of famous Tula masters: Sizov, Vorontsov, Kiselev, Chulkov, Vanykin, Glagolev, Batishchev-Tul’skiy and many others. It was they who once praised harmonic craft in the regional capital and far beyond its borders. Then, getting to various provinces, the Tula instrument was getting improved. That’s why there is such a variety of existing harmonics: Saratov, Liven, Novorzhev, Yelets, Nizhny Novgorod. They can also be seen here during the exhibition. Each harmonics has its own character, melody and appearance.
