Museum of Atommash

The modern Museum of Atommash was opened in May, 2015. Since then, a new chapter has begun in the life of its exhibits: in Soviet times, they were already displayed here, however, the museum did not unfortunately survive to this day. Today, the guests can see the unique commemorative items again, plunge into the past, and witness the events that played an important role in the development of the plant.

The exhibition is based on the materials that reflect the history of Atommash in the 70s and 80s of the 20th century. This was the period of the plant construction, its grand opening, launch of production and meeting with the first serious challenges. The museum not only introduces visitors to the exhibits but is also a platform where various lectures are held for the employees and guests of the plant.
