In the local history and information center of the Moscow district of Chui region, the historical context of ancient items used by the Kyrgyz, Slavs, and other peoples is being clarified.

According to reports from our correspondent, the museum was opened in 1988 based on the sports complex "Urozhay" in the village of Belovodskoye. In 2002, it was moved to the House of Culture, and then, in 2008, to the children's creativity center "Tañ nury".

This museum houses numerous artifacts, including spindles used by women, washing items, and leather armor of warriors, highlighting the rich cultural heritage of the region.

Leather products made from the skins of animals such as cattle, sheep, and goats undergo special processing. According to some data, warriors used leather armor due to its flexibility and strength, which provided protection for their arms during battle.

Additionally, among the Slavic exhibits, one can see devices for spinning threads, combs for wool, machines for producing oil from cream, and even a painting dedicated to the Belovodsk uprising of 1917–1918. These items generate significant interest among visitors, and it is also worth noting that Belovodskoye had its own coat of arms and anthem.

Currently, the museum continues its work to clarify historical data about its exhibits, adding new information for a deeper understanding of cultural heritage.
