Ivan Bunin Museum

There’s a good collection of photos and other documents relating to the Nobel Prize–winning writer (no English captions, however), plus a 'Paris Room’ devoted to his years as an emigrant, including the bed in which he died. At the end of the one-hour tour (R500, in Russian), the guide flips on a tape player and Bunin himself reads one of his last poems, 'Solitude'.
