The Colección del Museo Ruso, also known as the Russian Museum Collection, is a satellite venue of the State Russian Museum in St. Petersburg. It sits in Málaga, on the Costa del Sol in Andalusia, at Avenida Sor Teresa Prat 15, in the 29003 postcode area.
What you will see
The museum presents Russian art drawn from different periods, so a visit offers a sense of how Russian painting and related work has changed over time. Its displays rotate, which means the works on view can differ from one visit to the next.
The building
The collection is housed in a renovated tobacco factory. Visitors who enjoy seeing how an old industrial building has been adapted for public use will find the setting as interesting as the art itself.
