Definitely worth a visit. Great collection of Russian royal attributes. Deep dive into pre Revolutionary Russia. Great audio guides in English 👍

A very interesting and thought provoking look into a different age and a glimpse into a world of splendor and privilege. Well worth a visit, lots to see, start early.

It is called as "Aruzeinnaya palata" in Russian. No photography allowed inside. Still I managed a few. A beautiful and well managed place with stuff from daily lives of Russian Czars displayed here. Their diamond encrusted clothes and armoury. Their carriages, personal weapons, silver ware, gifts and what not. A huge hit with tourists and Russians as well. Everything if valued must be worth several billion dollars. 1000 rubles ( 16 $) entry ticket. Includes digital guide, and museum curator too. A voyage through old times. !!!!! One of the pictures below posted by me is real Kremlin red bricks visible below tiles.

Trotz der Tatsache das es sich um ein benutzten Bereich der russischen Regierung handelt und des deswegen hohen Sicherheitsstandard läuft der Einlass schnell und professionell ab. Der Kremel ist einer der Orte auf der Welt die man gesehen haben sollte. Die Gebäude sind sehr schön restauriert und es gibt grad in der Rüstkammer viel erstaunliches zu sehen.

What an amazing collection this is. Rich and varied with things to interest all. The collection of gold and silver objects and the weapons are amazing. The horse carriage collection is astounding. Aim to spend about 3-4 hours here and use the supplied audio guide. Enough seating to relax. The collection may seem to be in a compact place as they have a lot to show...they could use a space 5 times bigger to display in a better way but would be less secure and more tiresome too . Very much recommend. Book online if possible and get there for the allocated time, no time limit to leave once inside . Keep a snack and water with you.

Considering the ticket fare, I found the exhibition to be a bit small. Nice collection of treasuries though. Free audio guide is a plus. Negative point is that you are not allowed to take pictures inside. Be smart and reserve your ticket for a specific time slot a few days in advance via the internet, the queue at the ticket office was long.

They did not allow photos inside here. But I would estimate if the sold half the jewels, and amazing artifacts here, they could eliminate world hunger. Russia and the Vatican could easily change the world.
