Museum-diorama in Motovilikha
This is one of the small remote departments of the local history museum of Perm. It contains exhibits that are associated with the armed uprising in Motovilikha at the beginning of the 20th century. In the 30s of the last century, a military shell and the ashes of Stepan Afanasyevich Zvonarev were laid in the museum building. This is a great participant in the hostilities in Motovilikha during the revolution. One of the most important attractions of the museum is a skillful canvas more than 20 meters wide. Made by folk famous artists.
Near the base of the memorial building there are 16 graves of Russian soldiers who died during the October Revolution.
In front of the museum in 1920 a monument to the Fighters of the Revolution was unveiled. For Perm, the image on the memorial plays an important historical role, since until the early 1990s it was used in the design of the coat of arms of the Perm Region. In October 1963, the Eternal Flame was lit on Mount Vyshka, not far from the museum building. It is dedicated to the fallen soldiers who defendedcity during the years of the revolution.
Every year, the building hosts various exhibitions dedicated to the history and culture of not only the city, but the whole country.
