This wonderful collection shouldn't be missed. This is the only museum of it's kind in the country. No matter what Religion or Spiritual practice, this is an intense view into the creation of icons and the measure of Faith. Intriguing, captivating, glorious objects of devotion await. The passion behind this collection will alone impress; be prepared to spend time - there's a lot to experience. I know I will go back soon!

There are few museums of such high quality in Central Massachusetts. The staff are friendly and knowledgeable, and the museum itself has many rotating exhibitions, so there's something new to see every time I go. I am really impressed by the number of events the museum holds that provide engagement opportunities for the outside community. If you enjoy Russian history and culture, or just like to learn something new, don't miss the Museum of Russian Icons!
