Rybatskaya Sloboda Museum in Lovtsy village

The building where the museum is located was built in the middle of the 19th century (there is no exact data). The museum's premises on the 1st floor are occupied by a hall that tells about the activities of local residents of the royal fishermen, about cooperage and a unique collection of cooperage tools, about rare exhibits found on the territory of the village and donated to the museum fund, the second small hall tells about the famous inhabitants of the village of Lovtsy.

In 2022, a Merchant's Lounge was opened on the second floor of the building — new museum rooms that tell about merchants and significant events in the history of the village. In one of the halls there is an exhibition of paintings by the Honored Artist of Russia Gennady Pavlovich Sorogin, who painted paintings in the village of Lovtsy.

Museum programs are held in the Merchant's Lounge: "Merchant tea drinking", "Fishing stories of the last century", "Etiquette of merchant tea drinking", etc. The hall's exposition includes furniture from the late 19th century, tableware, and other exhibits.
